Dragon’s Domain Records presents the world premiere release of the soundtrack for DESPERATE VOYAGE featuring music composed by Bruce Broughton (SILVERADO, TOMBSTONE, THE ORVILLE ) for the 1980 television movie directed by Michael O’Herlihy written by Alvin Sapinsley based on the book by Ray Kytle starring Christopher Plummer Jonathan Banks Cliff Potts Christine Belford Lara Parker Nicholas Pryor and Michael Swan.
Whoaaa!! Great news to wake up to. I'd given up on new/premiere Bruce Broughton film or TV scores coming out. I used to take them for granted from Intrada. Well done BSX...it will be mine.

Oh my! A new Broughton CD! There is still so much great music from him to be discovered (especially from TV) and this really proves that. The samples sound awesome! Broughton magic!

Immediate purchase (combo CD+digital) just after a few audio clips listening.
Waouw, now complete listening. This dark, haunting and threatening music is absolutely fantastic !
You get 100% of the upcoming usual 1985 Bruce Broughton's patterns 5 years in advance. Great high strings and woodwinds work. With incredible low to high brasses as well. Threatening low key piano enhances the whole thing.
There is not a single second of this soundtrack that doesn't sound 100% Bruce Broughton best music. It confirms that Bruce Broughton is the most underrated film and television composer of the last 45 years.
Highly recommended purchase. Album soundtrack of the year for me.
As a 500 Limited, hurry you before it sells out. I bet you won't regret it...
I presume the temp track for this little television gem was "Jaws", Or maybe the production wanted just that, ascribing a lighthearted tone to the pirate protagonists more than the dramatic story is.
