I've never had a particularly strong affinity to the works of Tiomkin. But recently I listened in close proximity to Alamo, Guns of Navarone, Gunfight at the OK Corral and Last Train to Gun Hill and he is growing on me. Based on those four can I get some recommendations of additional Tiomkin I should try out?

I too am not really a Tiomkin fan. He's usually way too over the top for me, ruining many scenes he scores. That said, as albumsI recommend Land of the Pharaohs and 36 Hours from FSM, as well as The Fall of the Roman Empire (get the complete Tadlow re-recording if you only get one, though the single disc LLL version has a far superior booklet and packaging so I cherish it too).

I only have the Tadlow release, and I find that booklet very informative, with cue analysis, notes about the film, producer's notes and stills from the film. How is LLL version's booklet 'far superior'? Two words: Jim Titus. But hey I agree the Prometheus has some of their better notes and packaging, and as I said theirs is my #1 recommendation. A truly great rerecording which made me reassess the score which like Mr. Fitzpatrick I'd previously dismissed as noisy and obnoxious. Yavar
