the releases on the Tadlow label itself do have much superior packaging and artwork than the ones produced for Prometheus. Yes. I'm still puzzling over the bloody sword hilt the keeps recurring in the QUO VADIS pages. There's no swordplay in that movie! Perhaps it was something left over from CONAN? That I would suspect would the choice of the in-house art director of PROMETHEUS RECORDS and Mr. Van De Ven based on past experience. Ford A. Thaxton

I think this thread would be getting a lot more attention if it were retitled "Hour of the Gun New TADLOW Recording" -- a lot of people may otherwise think it's just another discussion of the original album. Yavar

It's arrived this morning courtesy of Silva Screen, and it's a superb recording, brilliant job James and co. I've just played the original album and then the new one and I'm pleased to say , that in my opinion the new recording beats the old one in every department. Well done everybody concerned with this production, I'm already looking forwards to the next one in the series.

The information on the source of the RED PONY suite in the booklet is incorrect: Alexander Courage was not involved. The idea came from Jon Burlingame, and it was assembled and orchestrated by David Newman for the American Youth Symphony. Apologies to Jon and David for not giving credit where credit was due!

I've listened to Hour Of The Gun twice since it arrived yesterday, I like it, it's a wonderful release and recording. To my mind and ears it doesn't surpass the original rerecording but it's a great addition to our collections. Looking forward to many more Tadlow/Prometheus rerecordings, great work James and Co.! The Red Pony suite is simply superb!

This should be combined with the "Hour of the Gun/"Red Pony" thread. no? ..or that with this

The latter would make more sense since this is the original thread. It does, however, really need to be retitled as I keep saying, ie. following the Quo Vadis example, "HOUR OF THE GUN (COMPLETE) Tadlow Recording! Otherwise the thread from the title simply appears to just be yet another thread about the existing album which has been out for decades... Yavar

I don't have this one yet, but the clips sound good. If Tadlow can nail Goldsmith, whose OST albums tended to have, even when re-recorded, a very unique soundscape and acoustic, then they can nail anything, so this is great experience in reconstruction.
