4.0 out of 5 stars A real rarity for Mancini fans, April 15, 2002

This review is from: Mancini Soundtracks Collection: Hatari/High Time (Audio CD)

This import combines two complete soundtracks from the early part of Mancini's career, and both have been long out of print. "Hatari", besides featuring the sounds of the jungle which Mancini scored using actual instruments and gords brought to him by director Howard Hawks, contains some good jazz as well (especially a swinigin' "Big Band Bwana"). "High Time" has some fine moments as well, and both albums show why Mancini was always in such great demand by Hollywood. The price for this two-fer is nice, too, considering the pricetag found on other imports.

5.0 out of 5 stars Two great Mancini scores, April 7, 2009

For some reason most Henry Mancini scores are not readily available domestically. This British import is a welcome addition containing two great scores. The audio quality is first rate. This set is a must for fans of Mancini's film music.

5.0 out of 5 stars I like it!, July 30, 2002

This review is from: Mancini Soundtracks Collection: Hatari/High Time (Audio CD)

I am a fan of Mancini's music and this was certainly no disappointment. I bought the album for the "Theme Song of Hatari" and really enjoyed it--plus the other 20 songs in it.
