Steiner's is the score I would love to own but a better version than some of the poorly re-recorded ones out there. Stromberg would defintely give us a wonderful version if it ever happens. In the meantime, I love the John Barry score. It is truly a beautiful score for a poorly conceived remake.

KING KONG LIVES - SCOTT
|

Of course my last post was but a jest. But the original is also my personal favourite. For me, not only one of the greatest of film scores, but one I too personally count as a favourite. I also love the Barry score, and yes it has many of his trademark, lovely moments. I bought the album on release prior to seeing the movie. At first I was disappointed, but slowly got into the score long after the awful film itself became a distant memory. But consider King Kong Escapes. It does have some nice moments. Whenever the heroine is in contact with Kong, we get an attempt at sentiment, completely missing from the previous Japanese Kongfest.

I haven't heard the Scott. I have to say the JNH is my favorite, although I strongly appreciate the Barry and Steiner. When you're in the mood for Steiner's "Jungle Dance," it's hard to beat.
