The
Music Of Jerry Goldsmith
A very average boot disc with
a collection of primarily Goldsmith tracks that are unavailable
commercially. Recording quality is generally pretty good as most
of it has been sourced from a DVD etc. A handful of tracks appear
from something titled Brotherhood Of The Gun, but this
is
more than likely to be son Joel's music to Hollister,
for which Jerry wrote the theme for.
The disc remains one of those
annoying releases that does have some sort after music from the
robust Universal logo and the older Carolco, though
the equally impressive Cincergi logo is not here. We also
get a good sounding recording of the composer's fanfare for Oscar
as well as the popular Judge Dredd trailer, which again
sounds fine. Other than that there are end credit tracks sourced
from a DVD and two pieces recorded from a Goldsmith concert live.
Again these don't sound too bad.
An odd collection with sparse
packaging that has some gems but it would be so much nicer if
some more thought had been put into it and this kind of compilation
had been official.
