"I bought the Varese Sarabande edition of Basil Poledouris' "vibrant score" (per Leonard Maltin) in 1993, and it has been one of my favorites ever since. Real bone-rattling gutsy music alternating with delicate and even spiritual passages. The awesome atmosphere of "Atlantean Sword," the beautiful waltz of "Theology/Civilization," the deeply moving angelic choirs of "Recovery," and the all-out blood-and-thunder of "Battle of the Mounds," this was magical movie music in the Wagnerian tradition of gods, heroes, and Valkyries. It made my blood race to my face and squeezed tears from my eyes. The 67.52 minute suite moved me all over the emotional map from the brooding "Anvil of Crom" to the final majestic "The Awakening." Conan's author Robert E. Howard liked to say, "Barbarism is the natural condition of mankind." The masterful score of the late Mr. Poledouris hurls my mind and spirit back to the days of my "Cimmerian" ancestors, in the mists of old Scotland." - Jack Shatter, Amazon .com
