Young Sherlock Holmes - Main Title by Bruce Broughton. This was a childhood favorite and long wanted on CD. Thanks to Intrada for releasing it.

Don't argue/Desperate Journey--Friedhofer
This comes at the end of Between Heaven and Hell when Robert Wagner runs down the mountain in order to save himself and Buddy Eden. Friedhofer uses the Dies Irae theme and it is gripping.

This was a hard question for me to answer, until November of 2001...

Goldenthal's Adagio from Alien 3

 By:   MusicMad   (Member)

I've never understood the problem answering this question ...

... for me, for 50+ years, it's been the same cue, the same piece of music, the best music ... ever (and for some years I've been more of a classical than film score listener.)

Thunderball OST tr. B1 (of original vinyl LP) ... Thunderball

Near 4 minutes of pure bliss.

Unbeatable!

Is there an equivalent cue on the expanded CD.

The Trees. Medicine Man soundtrack. Jerry Goldsmith

"Enterprise Clears Moorings" from STAR TREK II.

On the day that piece of music fails to excite me, you can put me in a box.

Track 7

Difficult, yes, but the one track I find myself enjoying today (and returning to) just as much as when I bought the CD 33 years ago, is Jerry Goldsmith's

THE FAMILY ARRIVES (from THE RUSSIA HOUSE)

Any number of Bernard Herrmann cues would qualify for me. I find myself with a two-item tie:

"Kidnap" from OBSESSION and "The Stars" from THE LONELY (THE TWILIGHT ZONE).

The Last Battle - Star Wars.

"Homecoming" from "The Best Years of Our Lives" - Hugo Friedhofer. Perhaps the best score of all time.

PS I mean the cue when Frederick March rings the bell on his apartment and he hasn't told his family that he's home from WWII yet. His kids answer the door and are overwhelmed, and he goes in and surprises his wife, Myrna Loy. The music is sublime. Always brings tears to my eyes.

I don't have a recording or cue sheet handy etc., and "Homecoming" may be for a different sequence. Sorry for being imprecise!

You can't go wrong with either Homer's or Al's homecoming. The latter has an interesting interpolation of "Among My Souvenirs" too. Both remarkable cues in a score that's full of 'em. Including Hoagy/Butch playing his own "Up the Lazy River" that "underscores" a terrific conversation with his nephew at the pub.
