5.0 out of 5 stars One of Jerry Goldsmith's Best, December 30, 2006

After watching Hoosiers on DVD a while ago, I was wondering if a copy of the soundtrack was available. Lo and behold, here it is! I think the Soundtrack to Hoosiers is one of the best, if not the best, that Jerry Goldsmith has ever done. All of the tracks are excellent, particularly the first and last. The way he repeats the same musical theme in all the tracks, yet keep them all interesting, is pure genius.

If there's one word to describe the Hoosiers soundtrack, it's this: uplifting. This music uplifts one as much as the movie does, and can be listened to over and over again. 5 out of 5. By the way, this soundtrack is now available on iTunes for $9.99.

It's no secret that Jerry Goldsmith's prodigious output in the 1980's was marred by slightly below par performances by the HSO Orchestra.
However, Best Shot is one example where the sheer quality of the composition shines through despite lackluster playing. This is Goldsmith at his best - memorable and spirited thematic material that never fails to capture the imagination. Bravo Jerry!!!

Listen to this soundtrack and then watch the movie. The music is what raelly makes the movie bounce!

A great CD to listen to in the car - extremely upbeat!
