Thorough to the ninth degree
This is a thorough look (listen?) at the oeuvre of film composer Jerry Goldsmith, though he also wrote television, radio and a couple of concert works. I say thorough, though 'exhaustive' might be a more appropriate description. Working through Goldsmith's output from his earliest days chronologically, interspersed with timely and fitting interviews from folks who knew/worked/researched Goldsmith, it's always entertaining thanks to its regular three hosts. Highly recommended if you're a Goldsmith fan; and if you're not, my God, what the hell is wrong with you? (NB: twice at least the hosts refer to Franz Waxman's '50s score for Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. That score and film are from 1941 with Spencer Tracy.)Read full review »
