Jerry Goldsmith, The Wind and the Lion, The Raisuli/Mr. President

[TheRisky9]

The man was a musical genius, and I grieved when he died. This is one of many great pieces composed during an illustrative career.

This is probably my favorite track on the CD. The Mr. President cue really tears me up and brings back all the great memories I have attached to this film.

@AllenbysEyes. Fully agree with you. Goldsmith's writing in the quiet, reflective scenes or the dialogue scenes in The Wind & The Lion is very moving and very luminous. I also love the music under Raisuli's telling of how he escaped imprisonment to Candice Bergin and his men. 'True Feelings/Guests of the Raisuli' is another wondeful example.

ScoreTracker, I bought this expanded release of 'The Wind & The Lion' before Christmas and it's genuinely spectacular. I'd forgotten how great the score is. The movie is rarely shown on Irish/British TV. 'Times Remembered' is one of the highlights of the previously unreleased cues.
