Rio
Lobo
Official release of
this rare western score from Howard Hawks' last film. Goldsmith
provides his usual south of the border flavoured approach with
a strong and infectious main theme first heard for solo guitar
over opening credits then later with a full orchestral workout.
Comedy elements play a part and generally the action adventure
elements are much lighter than other scores for this genre. The
opening train attack is left un-scored. But
the combination makes for a smooth listen and the opening tracks
almost play like a well executed suite.
La-La Land improve on the earlier Prometheus release with an
improved sounding mono complete score, source cues, a short alternate and the
surviving stereo cues provided by the composer back at the time of the
Prometheus release.
Expanded review to follow.
