Album Review

Patton/Tora! Tora! Tora! features some of the modern era's finest orchestral performances. Indeed, The General's March From Patton, a medley of the most dramatic cues from the soundtrack (and not on this CD), is a stirring piece that ranks with the 1812 Overture (by Tchaikovsky) and Fireworks Music (by Handel) as a power classic. The CD does feature all of the elements of the medley along with some cues and incidental music that were not used in the score. As a bonus, this disc also features some of the music from Tora! Tora! Tora!. While neither soundtrack is presented in its entirety, the music is ample evidence of Jerry Goldsmith's reputation as one of Hollywood's film music composers. This CD is an excellent addition to any orchestral collection — classical and/or contemporary.

Customer Reviews

Where is the original album?

For some reason the original soundtrack album release has never been issued on CD. Why? The orchestral performance is arguably better then in the movie, and crisper (yet more natural) than in this 1997 production. Plus, the great George C. Scott speeches featured on the record album are not here. We want the original vinyl release issued on a remastered CD. C'mon!

The Only Place

This is the only place i have been able to find the Tora, Tora, Tora soundtrack. :D

Danged good

Other than missing the famous edited speech of the real Gen. Patton this is an awesome score from an awesome movie about a General that would be a great help to us today.
