Intrada Special Collection. 「コナン・ザ・グレート」に次ぐシリーズ第２弾。ついに登場！ベイジル・ポールドゥリスの傑作の映画使用版フルスコアが世界初リリース！リマスターされたアルバムVer.も収録した完全盤！！
この世界初となるフルスコアのリリースには、複雑なライセンス交渉が何年もかかりましたが、忍耐と話し合いがついに実を結びました。1984年のMCAのオリジナル・アルバムは33分のハイライトを収録していたが、フィルムスコア版は1時間近くに及び、さらに16分の別バージョンを追加収録しています。ポールドゥリス指揮ローマ音楽院によるオリジナル演奏の鮮明さ、クリアさは他の追随を許さず、まさにアクション映画に求められるものである。パーカッションは細かく、低音部は特にパンチが効いている。前作のテーマも登場するが、コナンのテーマもトランペットで演奏されるシンコペーションの効いた新しいもので、全編を通して聴くことができる。ハイライトはたくさんあるが、「Chamber Of Mirrors」、「Dagoth Ceremony/Impaling The Grand Vizier」、「Net Fight」、「Cutlery Interruptus」が特に印象に残る。また、「メインタイトル」はオリジナルと改訂版の両方が収録されています。ユニバーサルが保管する3チャンネル・ステレオ・セッション・ミックスから全曲が収録されています。2枚目にはMCAのオリジナル・アルバム・プログラムも収録。限定盤。
Finally! The original Basil Poledouris masterpiece expanded on CD! 1984. Richard Fleischer directs, Raffaella De Laurentiis produces, Stanley Mann scripts, Roy Thomas and Gerry Conway fashion the story from Robert E. Howard’s literary creation, Basil Poledouris scores and incomparable Arnold Schwarzenegger reprises his role from the 1982 box office hit! Surrounding him in this second adventure are stars Mako, Grace Jones, Wilt Chamberlain, Tracey Walter, Olivia d’Abo, Sarah Douglas. Queen Taramis offers Conan a quest, he is uninterested, she vows to resurrect Conan’s beloved from the first film, Valeria, in return for his cooperation. He embarks on the journey, encountering virgin princess Jehnna, a search for the horn of Dagoth, fights with Bombaata, encounters his old wizard friend Akiro, befriends warrior Zula, finds the castle of Thoth-Amon, and film is only part way through! Incredibly rich and colorful material for Poledouris to write music for… and incredibly rich and colorful music he supplies! World premiere expanded release of his score took years of complicated licensing negotiation but patience and discussions finally bore fruit. Original 1984 MCA album offered 33 minutes of highlights but new remastered release brings running time to nearly an hour, plus an additional 16 minutes of alternates. The crispness and clarity of this original performance by the Union Musicisti di Roma under Poledouris has unrivaled vibrancy, just what one wants from vivid action music. Percussion are detailed, low brass are especially punchy! Thematic ideas from first film make necessary appearance but Conan himself gets all-new, syncopated theme usually played on trumpets and heard throughout. Highlights are plentiful but “Chamber Of Mirrors” stands out, as does “Dagoth Ceremony/Impaling The Grand Vizier”, "Net Fight" and “Cutlery Interruptus”. Also on board are both original and revised versions of the “Main Title”. Entire score is presented from stunning 3-channel stereo session mixes vaulted by Universal. Complex license also brings original MCA album program on second disc. Gorgeous cover art by Stephane Coedel graces front of flipper-style booklet with original MCA cover art on back, richly designed package design by Kay Marshall is filled with color stills from the film plus informative notes from John Takis. Nice package! Powerful music! Antonio Rampotti records and mixes, Greig McRitchie, Jack & Scott Smalley orchestrate, Union Musicisti di Roma perform, Basil Poledouris composes, conducts. Intrada Special Collection 2-CD set available while quantities and interest remain!
