About This Item

Originally released 21 May 1980, 'The Empire Strikes Back Symphonic Suite' from the Original Motion Picture Score presented selections of composer John Williams' music for 'Star Wars The Empire Strikes Back', which had premiered in theatres just two days before. Performed by The National Philharmonic Orchestra under the baton of conductor Charles Gerhardt, the one-disc record was intended to supplement - not compete with - the 'official' two-record soundtrack released one month earlier by RSO Records. This album consists of the Concert Suite from 'The Empire Strikes Back' ('The Imperial March', 'Han Solo and the Princess', 'Yoda's Theme', and 'The Asteroid Field'), supplemented by several other cues from the film score, including Alfred Newman's 'Fox Fanfare', plus Maestro Williams Main Title/The Imperial Probe', and 'Training of a Jedi Knight'. To avoid repetition of familiar material, Williams, conductor Charles Gerhardt, and producer George Korngold (son of composer Erich Korngold, one of Williams' musical heroes) presented new arrangements and orchestrations, performed by 96-member National Symphonic Orchestra. Album Tracks 1. 20th Century-Fox Fanfare 2. Main Title/The Imperial Probe 3. Luke's First Crash 4. Han Solo and the Princess 5. The Asteroid Field 6. The Training of a Jedi Knight and 'May the Force Be with You' 7. The Battle in the Snow 8. The Imperial March 9. The Magic Tree 10. Yoda's Theme 11. The Rebels Escape Again 12. Lando's Palace, the Duel (Through the Window) 13. Finale

    Deftones - Around the Fur   - VINYL LP
    4.6(12)

    Around the Fur the follow-up to Deftones' passionate, aggressive Adrenaline, sees the California quartet expanding on the sheer rage of their earlier work, adding new, more sinister shades to their already extreme sound. The opening InchMy Own Summer (Shove It),Inch serves as an introduction to the album's sonic theme sinewy guitars and eerie whispers alternate with fast, violent crunch. Sepultura's Max Cavallero contributes guitar and vocals to InchHeadup,Inch while InchMXInch finds singer Chino trading off vocal lines with Annalynn Cunningham, (wife of Deftones' drummer Abe) in an acerbic take on the rock star mentality. Vocal acrobat Moreno attacks a variety of styles his breathy, psychotic recitations sound downright industrial, while the album's calmer, more brooding moments show his gift for haunting melody. Behind him, guitarist Stephen Carpenter's heavy wall of sound is astoundingly muscular, yet inspiringly agile. When Deftones' hellish fury hits full tilt, as it always does on this album, Moreno's voice erupts into screams which are best described as otherworldly, transforming this intense musical firestorm into a hurtling juggernaut of aggression. This LP version comes pressed on 180 gram vinyl. Album Tracks 1. My Own Summer (Shove It) 2. Lhabia 3. Mascara 4. Around the Fur 5. Rickets 6. Be Quiet and Drive (Far Away) 7. Lotion 8. Dai the Flu 9. Headup 10. MX
