To me, this is one of the most intense movies I watched back in high school. I had just gotten my license and was panicky every time I saw a big rig or any large truck in my rear view mirror. Of course, it didn't help that we had a sand and gravel trucking company (still there actually) and a cement mixing company on the same street that I took to go to school. Like clockwork, a truck from either place would be exiting right after I drove by and would be right on my bumper. Thank God I refrained from tapping my brakes or giving them the one finger salute!
Yeah.. it is intense.
Maybe its just you & me, I think its one of Goldenberg's best & Spielberg's.
BG score had some quality pace skilfully balanced, even when Weaver is at the diner just staring round at folk there's edgy tension intensity's grind great moment, & when the truck is all-over the car those robust pieces were really raw orchestration those synth colours sneak or flow-in gloriously very weaving for Weaver fitting those scenes perfect, the Final Duel was lovely areal crash - bang & wallop affair. Either way listening to the cd or the film its quite memorable fine combination.
When I purchased the Intrada cd i was stoked to get the extra music, it has some nice pieces of country instrumentals that were missing from the film. Anyway great release, thanks to Intrada.

Yeah, while very limited, I was surprised at how much more electronic effects are used. In one cue I even hear what sounds like an electronic guitar sound played backwards a few times.
I eventually edited down the score, combined parts of cues to others and created about six long suites for my listening pleasure. It's been in regular rotation ever since.

Mr Marshall
I like your LP but why would it have been released in 1982?,?? What's the significance?
Thanks!
DUEL was released in US theaters for the FIRST time in 1982. This was because E.T. made SS a household name. So, if they released an lp, it would have been then.

I leave out the redneck numbers, and it is a perfect LP length.
Isn't 'redneck' considered a slur.

With that horrible noisy 80's MCA vinyl?
I exchanged copies three times in '82 because I was so disgusted with the vinyl crackles during the opening track! Never did find a clean one.
This is why vinyl has no appeal to me any more, at least one of the reasons.

Does track 16 sound like a Henry Mancini/Inspector Clouseau theme all countryfied up to anyone else?
It sounds familiar and my mind went to the Pink Panther movies for some reason.
