Notes
The terrific orchestral soundtrack to Lawrence Kasdan's 1985 cult western, Silverado.
Composer Bruce Broughton bucked the then-current trend of scoring westerns with guitar twangs, whip snaps and whistlers etc. by writing for a large orchestra with added brass and percussion. He created the now-legendary Silverado theme along with some of the most ferocious action music ever to ride in a saddle!
This great double CD pack, presents the entire score, created from the actual 24-track session masters and newly re-mixed in 2005 by original engineer Armin Steiner at 20th Century Fox where the actual recording sessions originally took place 20 years ago.
40 minutes of previously unreleased music include exciting sequences where Kline recovers his horse and hat, powerful music when Glenn is roped plus both showpiece action cues climaxing the movie - heard here for the first time in their entirety.
Bonus tracks offer Broughton-composed source pieces plus alternate of Costner's faceoff with Kevin Fahey round out the second disc.
