....how much you wanna bet that within a few years those missing synth elements turn up? If they DO, would YOU buy a redone release with the original elements? No-brainer for ME!

I'm not understanding the appeal of this score at all. Perhaps it works in the film but I've listened to the CD twice now and there's not a single track I like. I dare say this is a rare Goldsmith (soundtrack) dud. I hope it sells well for Intrada and I'm happy for those who wanted it but it's just not for me. I'll be trading this CD away toot sweet. A rare Goldsmith (soundtrack) dud?? Dud? You didn't listen to the samples before buying?

Do the unimpressed people like The Swarm, Capricorn One, Logan's Run, Twilight's Last Gleaming or any other late 70s Goldsmith scores? I like those scores, but personally I like Damnation Alley better than ALL of them. Yavar

It seemed like a perfectly suitable vehicle at the time ....

I thought this was gonna be: Now that we have Damnation Alley, how about The Reincarnation of Peter Proud next. But, you proved me wrong.

Speaking for myself, the 1970s is my favourite decade in Goldsmith's output, probably more the early-to-middle 1970s than the middle-to-late 1970s, but nevertheless, I love all his 1970s output. Damnation Alley is far from being my favourite from that era, but it is absolutely "of" that era with many of the qualities that make that era so special to me. I think I'm probably going to surprise Paul Place by saying this, as he knows I lean more towards softer and more lyrical scores like Islands In The Stream than the more abrasive scores like Total Recall (though I have come to love the latter), but the Damnation Alley disc is a hit with me. Cheers

The acknowledged masterworks of Alien and Star Trek: The Motion Picture aside, I think the only late 70s Goldsmith score I like better than Damnation Alley is the incredible underrated/overlooked score to Contract on Cherry Street. Yavar
