This time around we bring you a two-CD set giving an early 90s action score a facelift. Disc 1 features the complete score in film order. The second disc features the highly creative assembly created by the composer for the first soundtrack album.

"Facelift" makes me think of Face/Off, but that's a late 90's action film.

And highly creative assembly could indicate a Hans Zimmer score, considering most of his soundtracks from that era consisted of long suites. Maybe Backdraft, K2 or The Point of No Return?

Definitely sounds like Hans Zimmer's K2 to me. It's from 1991, and the OST was just two long suite tracks called "The Ascent" and "The Descent", which can certainly be considered a "highly creative assembly" of a film score.

I've never heard of that K2 film, nor did I know that Chaz Jankel had composed film music. I've only ever been aware of him with Ian Drury.

I was talking about Hans Zimmer's score, not the US score by Jankel.

Oh right. I only looked at the credits on your post.

The second disc features the highly creative assembly created by the composer for the first soundtrack album.


So, there were more than just one soundtrack album released for this title, or is that just a reference to the previously released album?

Backdraft came out in the same year. The album cues for that one were quite different from those appearing during the film too. Album cues almost sounded like re-recordings.

Don't tease me. I'd love Backdraft.

I wouldn't consider the Backdraft OST a "highly creative assembly" by any means. A different mix, sure (less electronics). Be a creative assembly? It's in chrono order.

This could mean just about any Zimmer score. I was always disappointed how his albums differed from the film score. Point of No Return, Backdraft or Drop Zone would be awesome. Especially Return. That is one kick ass action score.

Drop Zone was my first thought when I saw the clue, but being from 1994 that'd be Mid 90s, not Early 90s.

Except K2 is not really an action score. But I hope it is this one-or Last Action Hero.

Well I assume it would be the original score by Hans Zimmer score, not the US replacement score by Jankel

Hans' score was never replaced. This story has been going on for many years.

The story is simple. Jankel wrote the first score in 1991 for the US version. Only AFTER for the European release Hans got to rescore it, in 1992. Nick Glennie-Smith wrote some cues, and he only joined Hans at Media Ventures in 1992.

I agree...

Fighting 17th => 1m01
Brothers => 4m10A + 5m10B
The Arsonist's Waltz => 5m13
335 => 6m18
Burn It All => 6m18 + 7m19
You Go, We Go => 7m19
Fahrenheit 451 => 7m20
Show Me You Firetruck => 7m21

Doesn't match "creative assembly" at all... lol

But the mix was dramatically different on Backdraft's album versus the film's score, plus there were many edits. I don't know why anyone would want K2, but people would definitely spring for Backdraft.
