In Case You Missed It: Stand Up and Cheer! Intrada Releases "Hoosiers" Soundtrack and More

January 2, 2013 By Mike Duquette Leave a Comment

LastHardMenWe begin our first day of catalogue coverage for 2013 by...keeping up with some titles that came out last year that slipped through our wires. (I know, I know. Really, it just sat in drafts for a week or two while I kept wrapping presents instead of finalizing it. -Ed.) Rest assured, though, that these - the final three catalogue soundtrack releases from Intrada Records - are worth your time in any year.

First up is one of Intrada's most intriguing releases in awhile, in that it's two scores for the same movie, neither of which were really used! Based on the novel of the same name, The Last Hard Men (1976) featured Charlton Heston and James Coburn as bitter, aging rivals on either side of the law in early 20th century Arizona. The film's original score by Leonard Rosenman was deemed too bleakly reflective of the picture by 20th Century-Fox, and Fox musical scion Lionel Newman was hired for an unusual task: he would re-record various pieces written for Fox Westerns by Jerry Goldsmith, including selections from 100 Rifles, Rio Conchos and Stagecoach for use in the final film. In one final, bizarre twist, those re-recordings were also scrapped in favor of Goldsmith's original recordings, which were considered favorable enough when temped into the final mix. So, for the first time ever, Rosenman's unused original music and Newman's unused re-recordings are presented in their entirety.

Keep reading after the jump for a look at two Golden Age scores on one release and another long-awaited expansion from one of the 20th century's most famous film composers!

Next, we have two soundtracks by Hugo Friedhofer, an Oscar winner for the score to William Wyler's The Best Years of Our Lives, for two films by director Mitchell Leisen. Bride of Vengeance (1949), a dramatic adventure film based on the infamous Borgia family, boasts a score that is in fact written adhering to many Renaissance-era musical traditions. The following year's Captain Carey, U.S.A. was better known for the Oscar-winning song "Mona Lisa," written by Ray Evans and Jay Livingston and a chart-topping single for Nat "King" Cole - but Friedhofer's dramatic score is still a treat (and does include an instrumental version of the aforementioned hit).

isc226booklet.inddFinally, and perhaps most anticipated of all, is an expanded edition of Jerry Goldsmith's Oscar-nominated score to 1986's Hoosiers, the acclaimed high-school basketball film starring Gene Hackman and Dennis Hopper. Goldsmith's interesting, synthesizer-driven score - an anachronism among the 1950s setting of the picture - was perplexingly only released on vinyl by Polydor in the U.S.; international CD pressings exist under the film's international title Best Shot. Intrada's CD takes those seven album cues and reorders them in film sequence alongside another 10 unreleased cues, finally presenting the full score the way it's been desired for years.

Full track lists and order links are below. Keep it at The Second Disc for more soundtrack and pop/rock/R&B catalogue coverage as it happens! (Or, in this case, a little bit afterward.)
