action music has Kamen's thumb print all over it. I didn't have enough appreciation for it as a teenager.Ģ) Kamen probably should have gotten an "additional music by" credit for the action material, which takes "Die Hard on a plane" literally.
#STANLEY CLARKE PASSENGER 57 MAIN TITLE MOVIE#
I somehow ended up watching this movie late last night and was struck by two things:ġ) The funky parts of the score (particularly the main title) are much better than I remember. Can you provide a full tracklisting and possibly recommend a reliable place that may have it in stock? The chase music that immediately follows the titles is very good as well.
The main title is available on STANLEY CLARKE AT THE MOVIES, although it is extremely annoying that you have to buy a whole other CD just to get it. If you can find it, the score-only import CD is well worth getting (got mine through Footlight Records a year or so ago). That music was the main reason I originally bought this CD way back in '92! Oh well.good stuff all the same.Ĭlarke's music for The Transporter is also excellent. And I absolutely agree that the exclusion of the awesome main title music is a big minus. I love his own non-score albums though, 'If This Bass Could Talk' being one of my favourites, just check out the track with Clarke playing Bass while Gregory Hines (rip) tap dances.sublimeĬlarke is one of THE greatest bass players who ever lived! Stanley Clarke's film scores don't do anything for me. Next best track for me is the "ferris wheel" action music.
More importantly, where's the main title track? This was my favourite piece of music from this score, does anyone know why it was left off? I was just going through some scores I bought years ago, and came across Stanley Clarke's Passenger 57 album.Ī fairly good listen although he "borrows" extensively from Michael Kamen's Lethal Weapon sound.
