Intrada Displays "Uncommon Valor"

September 28, 2010 By Mike Duquette Leave a Comment

James Horner has seen quite a few of his orchestral soundtracks get the deluxe treatment in the past year or so. Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan (1982), Krull (1983), Something Wicked This Way Comes (1983), The Journey of Natty Gann (1985), Honey, I Shrunk the Kids (1989), the planned release of Jade (1995) - the list goes on, and it's safe to say Horner has been admitted into the hall of fame for great composers.

Add another one to the list from Intrada - his score to the 1983 film Uncommon Valor. In the picture, Gene Hackman played a retired marine colonel who led a group of soldiers into the wilds of Vietnam to rescue his POW/MIA son. It packed plenty of action and moving drama, and Horner - having made his mark with Khan the year before - provided one of his first of many militaristic scores (a tradition that would continue with works like Aliens (1986) and Apollo 13 (1995)).

The disc presents the complete score in stereo for the first time on any format, and includes several unused bonus cues. The set is limited to 3,000 copies, a worthy amount for the increasingly popular Horner. Take a look after the jump.

Mike Duquette (Founder) was fascinated with catalog music ever since he was a teenager. A 2009 graduate of Seton Hall University with a B.A. in journalism, Mike paired his profession with his passion through The Second Disc, one of the first sites to focus on all reissue labels great and small. His passion for reissues turned into a career, holding positions at Legacy Recordings and Rhino Records and contributing to Allmusic, Discogs, City Pages, Ultimate Classic Rock and Mondo Records, for whom he penned liner notes for his favorite piece of music: John Williams' Oscar-winning score to 'E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial.' Born and raised in New Jersey, Mike lives in Astoria, Queens with his wife, a cat named Ravioli, twin daughters and a large yet tasteful collection of music.
