"This collection of four compact discs are worth their weight in GOLD --- "The Magnificent Westerns", is the Ultimate Collection of Western Films & TV Themes --- The "Classic Western" is never-ending---always at the forefront of the Film Industry---whenever our film-makers run out of projects and ideas, they bring back "The Western"---fresh and never wandering far from the camera's eye or the composers pen---Silva Screen has been a leader in the "Compilation Department", so is it any wonder they release some hard-to-find scores---never fear my trail pardners---here they are!

Silva Screen Records has brought film music to another level in soundtracks, flawless from the very first note to the last, pure perfection---there is no other label I know of today that could come close to what they have done in film score/soundtrack albums---All in all, this outstanding and moving box set with awesome material will have film music collectors crying for more--- This has to be the essential and definitive in Western-Folk-Lore score compilations, and I should know, this has been my thing as long as I can remember---Who can forget our western heroes - John Wayne, Gary Cooper, Jimmy Stewart, Clint Eastwood, Sam Elliott, Tom Selleck and Gregory Peck. The City of Prague Philharmonic conducted by Paul Bateman, James Fitzpatrick, Nic Raine and Derek Wadsworth have done an outstanding job re-creating the old west with prairies and openess you feel when watching your favorite western film.



There you have it Buckaroo's---as we drive our herd to Abilene with Nic Raine(conductor) and The City Of Prague Philharmonic riding point, making sure no stragglers are left behind, we must meet our deadline at the rail head---James Fitzpatrick (producer) and Reynold da Silva (executive producer), David Stoner & Peter Compton (release co-ordinators), Rick Clark (mastering) and Damien Doherty (artwork)---giving us a fair price for our beef, this is how the West was, and through the recordings of Silva Screen Records it rides again---so "film-score-buffs", lean back in the saddle and watch the sun come up over the prairie skies---we're back when our country was just coming of age---Wagons Ho!

"Please note if you are considering buying that these are not the original movie soundtracks, these are an orchestra re-recording the music. If, like me, you like the original thing, then this is not for you."

"Just so it's clear "I KNOW THESE AREN"T ORIGINAL ARTIST"! Now that said this is a great compilation of the music of great Westerns on TV and movies. The orchestra does an above average job of imitating the original scores. You will have to listen with super quality headphones for hours to distinguish the subtle differences. If you are that "a" retentive then by all means find the original scores and pay far more to compile this collection. Otherwise suffice that this is a bargain for the number of songs and the caliber of the recreation of the movie scores.
