Track of the Week: "Main Titles" by Bruce Broughton, from The Master of Ballantrae



I stumbled upon this one when looking for a review of Tombstone over at Filmtracks, and am happy that I did so. I love swashbuckling scores of all kinds, and the Scottish flair that Broughton gave this one is just icing on the cake for me. The only quibble is the "archival" (i.e., blowing the cobwebs and dust off) sound quality. A fine, adventurous score for a very tragic tale.
