A dramatic score by Herrmann – written for this 1970 film about a key battle in WWII. Herrmann directs the London Philharmonic, and the whole thing's very action-packed – less edgey than some of Bernard's more famous scores, but strongly voiced nonetheless. Titles include "Prelude ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Beautiful work from Joe Hisaishi, a film composer who's best known work was done for a series of animated features by director Hayao Miyazaki – but who serves up some equally wonderful music for this film directed by Takeshi Kitano, aka Beat Takeshi! The story has a gently sentimental vibe ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Beautiful soundtrack work from Joe Hisaishi – done for a 1999 Takeshi Kitano film, and served up in a mix of some of the warmer sentiment he brought to his work for Miyazaki, and some more interesting modes that provide a nice juxtaposition – and which clearly seem right for the madder ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Spooky music hosted by the master of suspense himself – a classic album that features Alfred Hitchcock introducing dramatic instrumentals arranged and conducted by Jeff Alexander!

Great electronics from the Indian scene of the 80s – music that's a lot warmer and more evocative than you might guess from the "robotic" in the title – thanks to plenty of roots in the Kollywood soundtrack scene!

(Cover has some light wear on the back, but is nice overall.)
Maurice Jarre is no stranger to a military soundtrack, but his work here is nicely different than the rest – maybe in part because the movie's a creative effort from director Henri Verneuil, with Jean-Paul Belmondo in the lead! There's some nice currents of whimsy and sentiment mixed in with ... read moreCD
