Great rendition but INFERIOR to the John Morgan Reconstructi

(3 out of 5 stars)

"I like this rendition of Steiner's classic score. It was the best up until John Morgan completely reconstructed the entire score and put the heart and soul into it that has Steiner smiling from up above. Therefore, I say forego this version and shoot for Morgan's (with the Moscow Symphony Orchestra).



Most noticeable: this "Jungle Dance" is lacking and sloppy. It doesn't provide the impact or power of the original score and has always bugged me. When you listen to Morgan's version, you'll love it and think, Yeah, that's it. that's the ticket!
