5.0 out of 5 stars TOTALLY (Karate) CHOPPED OUT, February 3, 2002

Excellently composed and synchronised to match the movie scenes spot on, Claudio "LALO" Schifrin must have been ALL FUNKED OUT whilst doing this score. Almost 30 years later, it still very much blows most of us away, those fortunate enough to own the extremely rare 25th anniversary remastered edition of the album will definitely dig the 6 or so additional tracks not found on the original, please check out the superb JazzFunk track "HEADSET JAZZ" (though a bit short but it still delivers) and also the marvelous bridging on the track titled "HAN'S ISLAND" (sounds oriental but done 100% with western instruments).

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely Brilliant !, April 15, 2004

Lalo Schifrin the composer had a real challenge scoring for Enter the Dragon due to its Chinese influence. The result is simply brilliant. Not only is this a great film, the sountrack is extremly well done. Definately buy the remastered version which is now available. Originally, the remastered CD version came out in 1997 along with the DVD box edition. There are several tracks not on the original release which is in MONO ! The new tracks are 1. The First fight 2. The Banquet 3. Headset Jazz 4. Into the Night 5. Goodbye O'Harra 6. Han's Cruelty 7. The Big Battle 8. Main titles (alternate take). Schifrin uses heavy orchestration including experimentation with new sounds but pays emphasis on double bass & tabla. For real film buffs, the score from this film sounds awfully similar to Joe Kidd done about a year ago (1972). For fans of film music esp from the 70's don't miss this one !

I really love owning the original movie soundtrack to Enter the Dragon but I really do wish that every single piece of music would be included on the album. Most of the score is included but they need more
