Bruce, can you say when your next release will be? Any Fox in the pipeline? Thanks.
Much Fox in the picture and all being transferred and worked on. We have two major releases coming that are in approvals.

"Good, edw. Can't say I ever warmed up to 100 rifles, but I LOVE Take A Hard Ride, Lonely Are The Brave, and Rio Conchos. I also play Hour of the Gun, Bandoleros, and Stagecoach."
What, no WILD ROVERS?

Oops, PNJ, I do like Wild Rovers and One Little Indian. I like most of Goldsmith's westerns.
Well this is wonderful news! Rio Conchos will be my first JG western (and BOY have I done a turnaround when it comes to that genre lol!).
I adore How the West Was Won (I think it's probably one of Alfred's best scores), Alamo, Red River.
I've read that JG can sometimes take a different, more dark turn in his Western scores, which especially interests me.
Strangely, I just can't get into Morricone's Westerns (the whistling really gets to me). However, I'm a huge fan of his Mission and horror/giallo stuff. I must mention I haven't heard Days of Heaven or about a hundred of his other scores, so I'm speaking with a degree of ignorance. I do see Morricone as the best film composer today.

When it comes to rousing western scores, the two best composers for me are Elmer Bernstein and Jerry Goldsmith. Following those two I'd add Poledouris and Morricone,
Really hoping to pick up Lonesome Dove.

DAYS OF HEAVEN is my favorite movie and the score is one of Morricone's supreme achievements (with no whistling! ;-). Don't miss seeing the film on Criterion blu-ray, and FSM's 2 CD set is a true keeper.

There are a ton of Morricone Westerns that have no whistling. Try THE BIG GUNDOWN or IL GRANDE SILENCIO or the recent HATEFUL 8, to name just a couple.
Oh heck I can't believe I forgot Hateful 8...but Morricone kind of wrote a horror score didn't he? I really like that one a lot, and wish all the talking was off it.
Thanks, Ray. And like you, I love Newman's How The West Was Won. I really miss big, rousing western scores.
That's my favorite, but I just adore Alfred's music to begin with.
