パラマウント・ピクチャーズの保管庫から丹念に復元されたこのエキサイティングなコンピレーションは、30年にわたる同スタジオの西部劇14作品のオリジナル・スコア・レコーディングを収録。これらの録音のいくつかはここで世界初リリースで、他のものは以前のリリースより拡張され、多くはそれぞれの映画で聴くことができなかった素材を含んでいます。ハリウッドの黄金時代のトップ・マエストロたちが、伝説的なジャンルで絶頂期を迎えていたことがわかる。ジョン・レイポルド、ヴィクター・ヤング、レオ・シューケン、チャールズ・ブラッドショウ、ダニエル・アンフィシアトロフ、マノス・ハジダキス、シリル・モックリッジ、フランツ・ワックスマン、ネイサン・ヴァン・クリーヴ、エルマー・バーンスタイン、ジェラルド・カルボナーラ、アドルフ・ドイッチ、デヴィッド・ブトルフ、ハワード・ジャクソンといった作曲家たちの音楽は、大編成のオーケストラ・ムーヴメントからシンプルで控えめな音楽まで、そしてその中間のものまで、実にバラエティに富んでいます。

ジョン・タキスとフランク・K・デウォルドがプロデュースし、クリス・マローンがオーディオ修復を担当したこの特別な4枚組コレクションは1000枚限定盤で、プロデューサー陣による詳細なライナーノーツが付いた36ページのブックレットが付属。ダン・ゴールドワッサーのアート・デザインにより、パッケージはクラシカルにまとめられています。

La-La Land Records and Paramount Pictures proudly present UNION PACIFIC: THE PARAMOUNT WESTERNS COLLECTION, VOL 2, a deluxe 4-CD soundtrack collection of original film score recordings from Paramount Pictures’ big-screen westerns: UNION PACIFIC (1939), THE VIRGINIAN (1946), BLUE (1968), CALIFORNIA (1947), THE PALEFACE (1948), THE MAN WHO SHOT LIBERTY VALANCE (1962), RED MOUNTAIN (1951), THE LONELY MAN (1957), and THE TIN STAR (1957), and suites from TEXAS RANGERS RIDE AGAIN (1940), TOMBSTONE: THE TOWN TOO TOUGH TO DIE (1942), WHISPERING SMITH (1948), THE REDHEAD AND THE COWBOY (1951) and RUN FOR COVER (1955).

Meticulously restored from Paramount Pictures’ vault elements, this exciting compilation features original score recordings from fourteen of the studio’s western features spanning the course of three decades. Several of these recordings are making their world premiere here, others are expanded beyond previous releases, and many contain material not heard in their respective films. It’s a vast frontier of musical treasures, revealing Hollywood’s top Golden Age maestros at the peak of their powers, working in a legendary genre. Composers John Leipold, Victor Young, Leo Shuken, Charles Bradshaw, Daniele Amfitheatrof, Manos Hadjidakis, Cyril Mockridge, Franz Waxman, Nathan Van Cleave, Elmer Bernstein, Gerard Carbonara, Adolph Deutsch, David Buttolph and Howard Jackson are showcased here, their music encompassing an exhilarating variety, from big orchestral movements to spare and intimate moments ? and everything in-between.

Produced by John Takis and Frank K. DeWald, with audio restoration by Chris Malone, this special 4-disc collection is limited to 1000 units and features a 36-page booklet with exclusive, in-depth liner notes written by the producers. Dan Goldwasser’s art design lassos the packaging together in classic fashion.
