"Who's Casey ****ing Ryback?" In a long list of beyond stupid films with thoroughly engaging scores, this one is towards the top of my favorites. I knew what to expect from an expansion, but my amazement with just how entertaining this score is will never cease. The recording also has what I think of as the best sound of all of Poledouris' '90s powerhouse action scores, with exceptional clarity for such a large ensemble. If Intrada could have picked up the rights to this expansion, it surely would have been released years ago. Buy, buy, buy: http://store.intrada.com/s.nl/it.A/id.1 ... gory=21780 |

Playing this now & agree, it's a terrific score, well presented (ah, how action used to sound. ...), and a nice tribute to the sorely missed composer in the notes. I love that musicians enjoyed playing his work, due to his counterpoint skills, keeping all lines active & interesting. Now, I wonder how they feel, faced with pages of whole notes endlessly tied together or repeats for days.... |

I've yet to receive my copy, and judging by some of the comments in this thread I'm in for a treat. The samples on the Varese site sound sweet especially the kitchen fight track. Can't wait to hear this score in full. |
