World premiere release of complete Jerry Fielding original soundtrack
from Michael Winner pursuit & revenge western with Charles Bronson,
Jack Palance. Fielding responds to savage tale with intense strings,
blazing brass, harrowing percussion. Blistering landscape of story
inspires plethora of subtle percussion figures, demanding woodwind solos
while fierce violence incites vicious brass motifs, dollops of
thundering snare, bass drum. Fielding divides time between imposing
flamenco-ish main melody & ever-winding secondary menace melody. Two
themes jockey for supremacy throughout score like movie's on-screen
adversaries. In stroke of brilliance, Fielding declares landscape the
final winner, closes not with either melody but with ferocious display
of percussion instead. Impressive highlight: "Titles" bookends with
florid trumpet statement of main theme, spotlights twisting woodwind
variants in between. Another rousing highlight: Building rhythm of
"Indian Rodeo" becomes wild display for virtuoso French horn, trombone
& trumpet. Entire score presented for first time from MGM master
elements in stereo. Dynamic recording made by Richard Lewzey at CTS
Studios in London. Colorful graphics, notes from Winner/Fielding
authority Nick Redman complete package. Jerry Fielding conducts.
