The Rocketeer

Great music with all the sounds I remember from the movie. Great value for the buck. September 23, 2008

Can't believe no one's mentioned the superlative version of "Begin the Beguine!"

Melora Hardin .... what a perfect voice for this song! It's a stupendously wonderful song to start with, even as a Harry James instrumental, but the lyrics are superbly sung by Hardin! Wowser....
The rest of the soundtrack is perfectly suited to the movie, which is a blast (no pun intended!) to watch. Just a lotta good fun, and after all, Timothy Dalton is always easy on the eyes, even when he's a bad guy! Wonderful music, done very much in the style of the times. Well done, Mr. Horner, and Bravo Melora Hardin! July 9, 2008

The Rockeeter film score is terrific fun.

You'll find fun variety in this film score CD for The Rocketeer. The title theme is much like the signature theme for The Natural but builds to a more heroic emotional tone. There are some great 1940s ballads, perfect for the white dinner jacket clubs that once graced old Hollywood. Some of the music is mindful of fine Eric Corngold incidental cues that augmented the action in Errol Flynn movies. The arrangements are wonderful too. I own three of these CDs, one is in my car and the other two are in homes where I live. If you collect movie film scores, and are partial to orchestrated music, this is certainly one CD for your collection. April 28, 2008
