    5.0 out of 5 stars Music for the Donner Party
    Reviewed in the United States on June 23, 2009
    You've probably already lost your mind trying to hunt down that Shining soundtrack for years on LP, bootleg disc, or MP3. Then these volumes came along, and while not a Holy Grail by any means, they're very, very welcome.

    There is still madness, don't worry. First of all, if you want all of the Shining tracks that Carlos produced, you need to buy Volume 1, too. Also, this is not all of the music in the film...but there is new music composed for the film that was never used...scrapped by Kubrick and left to collect dust in the archives.

    Highly recommended for the obsessed Shining fan, you also get tracks from Tron. Simple as that...both discs are well worth it.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Finally and Fulfilling!
    Reviewed in the United States on October 28, 2005
    Believe the hype, _Shining_ fans. These bits and pieces of music - volume 1 focuses more on "studio music and textures" of the themes devised for the film while volume 2 spends its allotted tracks on the more fully developed orchestra tracks - hold just about everything. I'll encourage you to follow that impulse/interest and add this work to your collection.

    What do you get? Well, for me, the treat was volume 2's first track - the film's title track - Ms Carlos explains why Kubrick nixed it - but it is as haunting as the final draft that follows Jack Torrance's lil yellow bug to The Overlook climbing the Rockies. The other tracks are renderings and attempts to put the novel into music forms. The liner notes are great - like a listening session over coffee with the composer.

    Both volumes are must haves for those of us all agog over the film's score (and scoring possibilities) but if you just want to hold a haunting, get volume 2 and put track one on repeat until you, that hag hottie in the tub, or your six year old's index finger hollers, "redrum!"

    Après la critique de prince saphir, j'avoue que je ne sais pas quoi écrire ...
    Sa culture musicale est impressionnante !
    Je ne peux que approuver tout ce qu'il a écris.
    Tout ce que je peuw ajouter, c'est que si vous avez aimé ce disque, vous aimerez aussi certainement
