Customer Reviews:

These are not the same arrangements as the original movie soundtracks.......2007-01-21

I was disappointed that these are not the same arrangements as the original movie soundtracks. For example, in Colonel Bogey, the countermarch from the movie soundtrack is not included in the arrangement on this CD. Don't get me wrong, the songs are good, but I would have preferred the same arrangements as the original movies.

An outstanding compilation.......2006-08-25

This compilation is superb and a real must-buy. From Band of Brothers to A Bridge Too Far: every war movie theme is represented here. An all time classic.

The really good ones are missing........2005-07-18

While this compilation has some masterpieces such as the theme from The Great Escape and Is Paris Burning, it's missing some of the finest tracts ever written. Where is the theme from Victory and Ernest Gold's stirring epic from Cross of Iron? The closing theme from Inchon was also a feast for the ears, but it's not here. It was written by Jerry Goldsmith, one of the foremost soundtrack composers of our time. Instead we're subjected to the likes of Hanover Street and The English Patient. I'll admit Inchon and Victory weren't Academy Award winning movies, but their soundtracks were second to none. As John Stossel would say," Give me a break"!!!

"many were winners by the Academy for best scores".......2004-05-26

Silva America presents the essential in film music during the period of World Wars ~ "Longest Day:Ultimate World War Movie Theme", featuring some long forgotten cues, 53 to be exact that sent chills and thrills into the pulses of world events ~ selections from a limited collectors edition that would make any "film-score-buff" green with envy.

Released to commemorate the sixth Anniversary of D-Day, never has there ever been such a tribute compilation package from any other label and Silva comes to the forefront ~ featuring The City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra (Paul Bateman, Nic Raine Tony Bremner and Carl Davis as conductors), The Philharmonia (Kenneth Alwyn, Jerry Goldsmith, Mario Klemens and Paul Bateman as conductors) and also the world renown Crouch End Festival Chorus (David Temple as choir master) ~ what a gathering of talented musicians and singers fill this collection supreme.

The lineup of composers is a Who's Who in the world of film music ~ John Addison, Tomaso Albinoni, Kenneth J. Alford, Paul Anka, John Barry, Arnold Bax, Elmer Bernstein, Eric Coates, Carl Davis, Klaus Doldinger, Antonin Dvorak, Benjamin Frankel, Gerald Fried, Hugo Friedhofer, Jerry Goldsmith, Ron Goodwin, Bernard Herrmann, Maurice Jarre, Michael Kamen, Jerome Moross, Alfred Newman, Clifton Parker, Alan Rawsthorne, Ryvichi Sakamoto, Lalo Schifrin, Gerard Schurmann, David Shire, Max Steiner, Dimitri Tiomkin, Ralph Vaughan Williams, John Williams, Gabriel Yared and Hans Zimmer ~ set the stage for compositional human drama while exploring the deepest troves of musical emotion ~ one masterpiece after another, each cue manages to display both a convincing authenticity of the times and places ~ experience every tracks passion and skill for striking the exotic orchestral colors, explosive power and spectacular works of full large scale orchestral arrangements previal at every turn.

We are grateful to James Fitzpatrick (producer), Reybnold da Silva (executive producer), Rick Clark (associate producer/album sequence), Marion Garden (associate producer) and the whole gang at Silva America who have resurrected many of the soundtracks for the "film-score-buffs" in all of us.

Much like the '80s house-music scene, where DJs were spinning vinyl in Chicago hot spots like the Warehouse, the Respect nightclub is fueling a dance culture that reigns in Paris. Respect Is Burning, Volume 2 is another grand compilation of the club's late-'90s dance anthems. With artists like Deejay Punk-Roc and Avalanche providing inventive tracks and underground DJs like Motorbass contributing exciting remixes, this collection includes several dance-floor classics. Including music by DJs from America and England, the French dance scene has a true international perspective. Mixing contemporary tunes like "Music Sounds Better with You" by Stardust (that's Thomas Bangalter from Daft Punk) with a retro-dub version of the dance classic "I.O.U.," volume 2 celebrates diversity without ever relinquishing the essential good-time vibe. --Mitch Myers

Customer Reviews:

Man this crap blows.......2005-12-09

I'm glad I listened to my friends copy before I bought it or I would've been mad. I listen to a LOT of electronic music mind you, a LOT so its not like "I don't get it". But these tracks are BAD (and not in a good way). Pretty much all of them sound like someone hitting a trash can with a stick over and over. The drum sequences are unoriginal, uninspired, repetitive, annoying. And there is high hat abuse/overuse all over this CD. I HATE THAT. That incessant high hat *psst psst psst psst* for 6 minutes straight without any variance at all going 130 beats a minute. Makes me want to gouge my eyes out.

Better DJ sets: Chris Cox--12 Inches of Cox, Tall Paul--Duty Free (both of them), or pick up CDS of virtually anything BT or Oakenfold puts out.

The beat goes on..........2002-01-23

A truly excellent compilation that hits all the right notes and puts French House on the map. Standouts include Mysterious People's "Love Revolution," the playfully sassy "I'm the Baddest..." by Norma Jean Bell, and "Music Sounds Better With You" by Stardust. Not a dull moment. There will be uneducated consumers who will purchase such drivel as "Totally Dance" and there are sophisticated listeners who will pick up a classy collection like "Respect is Sleeping." Which group would you rather belong to?

Real good!.......2001-08-20

There is nothing more to say. It is already mentioned in the other reviews. A real cool variated cd!!

Awesome French House.......2001-02-12

Ever since I went to Paris last year, I have been hooked on French house music. It is a unique blend of Euro-disco, trance and big beat, which is perfect for dancing. This album is awesome because it features some of the biggest tunes from the last 2 years. Stardust's "Music sounds better with you" is here, as well as DJ Punk Roc's "My beatbox". Mysterious people is also represented, with a swinging mix of "Love Revolution". If you like Cassius, Les Rhymes Digitales, Basement Jaxx or Daft Punk, you definitely need to get this CD. You won't regret it.

French disco for when you need a glitter rush.......2001-01-09

Here we go with the second "Frenchy" - their term - dance compilation paying honors to the Respect club night, and featuring exclusively French house artists. The main reason for picking this baby up hasn't changed since it's release; Stardust's 1998 anthem "Music Sounds Better With You," the scrumptious disco mover with that Daft Punk sound (as well it should with 1/3 of Stardust being ½ Punk - got it?) still sounds as potent as ever, here served in extended form on perhaps the only domestic release comp to have it.

But there are other songs here that cater to the house fans: "Penthouse" is a simple but effective floor-shaker, and "Where Does Your Mind Go" drops the pace while adding strong vocals to the mix. Included is some filler, yet only "I'm the Baddest" is truly skippable amongst the near-dozen tunes. And I have to mention the notable "My Beatbox" remix by Les Rhymes Digitales, perhaps the most loveable piece of cheese to hit disc in years thanks to an absurd voice box, electro beats, and 80's style keyboards. A fabulous example off all the wrong elements coming together in just the right way.

maurice jarre: the emotion and the strength.......2005-01-29

I am sure that anyone reading this review will agree with me on the fact that m. Jarre's status as a composer is beyond legend. What a pure genius. HOWEVER, I simply have to write this review to warn his fans what a huge disappointment this album is. Frist,the quality of the recording is tinny and insipid [I am not some picky audiophile, but live albums usually leave a lot to be desired]. Most important is that the arrangements and their performance by this orchestra is just totally unsatisfying. Lets face it, what we all love about Jarre is the power of his music in relationship to the films for which it was done. We want the evocative quality of the real scores, pretty much as they were for the films. You wont find it in this album[close your eyes and think of your favorite film score. You can hear it in your mind easily. now imagine hearing an album where the arrangement of it that you hear bears little relationship to what you lovingly remember. Thats the reason for my profound dissatisfaction]... So just buy the 'real' soundtracks and enjoy!

"Ageless Composer..Legendary Icon Extraordinaire..Jarre".......2002-01-21

Highly skilled composer one of the "Old Guard" film scoring Giants...belongs to a very exclusive club of longivity...creating some of the most brilliant scores ever to grace filmland...Mauice Jarre can write music for any story-line...from any country in the world...one who fits the bill of legendary icon in his most worthy profession...FILM COMPOSER EXTRAORDINAIRE!

Not being one so taken with LIVE RECORDINGS, but this 2-CD-Set has much merit, quality and enjoyment, all music composed and yes, conducted by MAURICE JARRE, with very capable musical organizations~ BBC Concert Orchestra,Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin, how's that for a Grand Slam line up...but let's see what musical scores make the grade of "stand outs" and the ever popular "highlights".

Starting with the stand outs ~ "A PASSAGE TO INDIA"(1984), string section opens with counterpoints from percussion, giving you a sense of traveling through India, brass takes over with a main theme, gives the ten minute Suite body---"FATAL ATTRACTION" (1987), solo piano sends chills through your memories of the story line, almost textures of "Classical Jazz", blending eerie strings with muted brass joining in for substance,reminds me of some of 1940's murder mysteries with Bogart or Mitchum---"RYAN'S DAUGHTER"(1970), haunting theme with melodic overtones, give way to the percussion section, moving within the unforgettable melody always stumping the music fans, where have I heard this before?

What you've all been waiting for...the HIGHLIGHTS ~ "LAWRENCE OF ARABIA"(1962), exceptional score for this stunning film, won an Oscar for "Best Original Score 1962", percussion and brass draws you into the desert, living each passage from an unforgettable arrangement that sits high on the composers list on his achievements---but the one everyone remembers for orchestration, originality and lasting impression of "Classic Soundtracks" is "DR, ZHIVAGO"(1965), sweeping Russian melodies with poignant blends of the windwood sections, listen as the counterpoints abound reeking with passion as the love of two women for one man, the Main Theme is probably one of the most recognizable in the world.

Milan Records has given us an additonal score "SUNSHINE"(1999), a beautiful haunting score that has Jarre's signature in place, the chorus gives off a heavenly sound of "Pure Harmony", counter balanced by the orchestration, gotta love it!

Customer Reviews:

Sounds Great.......2004-11-16

This is a good collection of music from war movies. "Where Eagles Dare" and "Battle OF Miday" are fantastic. This CD sounds great.

"First of Eight installments of Great Movies Themes...Silva".......2002-01-23

An extremely worthwhile and entertaining compilation for all "film-score-buffs" to sink their teeth into---this release "WAR", is the first installment of eight releases from Silva Treasury
featuring "Great Movie Themes In Dolby Surround"---is this one ever a sure-fire WINNER?---it most certainly is!

Silva has the knack to record and share "hard-to-find" scores with it fans---let's take a quick look at the film, year and composers ~ "SINK THE BISMARCK"(1960-Clifton Parker)..."THE GUNS OF NAVARONE"(1962-Dimitri Tiomkin)..."THE LONGEST DAY"(1962-Paul Anka/Maurice Jarre)..."633 SQUADRON"(1964-Ron Goodwin)..."BATTLE OF THE BULGE"(1965-Benjamin Frankel)..."IN HARMS WAY"(1965-Jerry Goldsmith)..."Is Paris Burning?"(1965-Maurice Jarre)..."THE NIGHT
OF THE GENERALS"(1967-Maurice Jarre)..."THE BRIDGE AT REMAGEN" (1968-Elmer Bernstein)..."WHERE EAGLES DARE"(1969-Ron Goodwin) ..."PATTON"(1969-Jerry Goldsmith)"MACARTHUR"(1977-Jerry Goldsmith )..."THE BATTLE OF MIDWAY"(1976-John Williams)..."DAS BOOT(THE
BOAT)"(1981-Klaus Doldinger)..."CASUALTIES OF WAR"(1989-Ennio
Morricone)...there they all are, some available elsewhere and many never before seen the light of day...many of the performances here are better than the original...significant arrangements with outstanding orchestration, full orchestra with a Big Concert Sound quality.

Silva Screen takes listening pleasure to another level with THE CITY OF PRAGUE PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA, under the baton of Paul Bateman and Derek Wadsworth, Mark Ayres performance on "DAS BOOT", rhythm flows mixing well with surround sound---must make mention of the various MAIN TITLES...PRELUDES...SUITES...MARCHES, are nothing less than magnificent with percussion abounding, strings sweeping, brass accentuates the counter-melodies within epic proportions...all this Great Movie Themes extravaganza in DOLBY SURROUND, gotta love it!

Total Time: 54:21 on 14 Tracks ~ Silva Screen Records STD-5008 ~ (1997)

Awesome.......2000-05-26

Great soundtrack. I haven't tried it on surround sound yet, but it sounds great on my car's CD player. The tracts from "Where Eagle's Dare," "The Battle of the Bulge," and "633 Squadron" are just superb---but the whole CD is really well done.

Excellent ArrangemenT & Recording.......2000-04-21

I bought this CD for one theme only, "Where Eagles Dare". It is one of the most stirring, spine tingling recordings I have heard. I play it in the mornings to get me started and it wakes up every nerve cell. The recording quality and muscianship are excellent. And, the bass intensity and dynamic range are mind-blowing. You could blow your speakers if not careful. All the selections are good. I recommend this CD.

A good compilation of War themes........1999-10-26

This cd contains a good mixture of re-recorded themes. While I have not listed to this on a surround system, the orchestra still sounds great throughout the 54 minute recording. My favorite selection on this CD is Rod Goodwin's 633 Squadron.

Respect.......2001-09-21

first compilation from the famous Respect nights in Paris; It is the best one of the series. Songs like Paul Johnson's Hear the music; Fantom's Faithfull or Dj Cam's Twilight Zone makes of this cd of the best ones I ever had ..
Respect IS burning

As good as vol. 2.......2001-08-20

This is the first "Respect is burning" which I had to get after spending a wonderful week in Paris. My favourite tracks on this one are "Hear the music", "Tout est bleu", "Disco 2000 selector", "Testify" and "(Get ready) for the power of disco". It is actually a little ridicolous rating each single track since the whole compilation is fantastic and a perfect example of the French clubscene as being (one of?) the best!! A cd you must own if you are a fan of the sound of French Disco House!

Break Dancer Stuff.......2000-04-26

HI Im a Break DAncer and ive listened to this CD. Its really funky. Fantom with FAithful is a really cool song. I love to break dance to it and the rest is really great. Im an Xtreme Techno/House fan and I love this CD. Even if you dont break dance its cool any way and its impossible not to dance to at least one song on here. Well Buckwheat440, me gives it a 4 star review. Its a little repetitive, but its great.

Finally, Real House and Disco.......2000-01-20

Anyone who is a fan of disco & house should give this CD a listen. Its hard to find "house music" since everyone's perception of house around the U.S. is different but this is it. This is definitely "Warehouse Music" (those of you who are from Chicago). Three of the tracks are really hot. The remainder of the CD was straight but it's worth checking out.

It is awsome.......1999-04-16

This cd just rocks! From DJ Cam's Twilight zone to Motorbass's neptune, here is a cd that pumps out 13 tracks of the frence scene. The inly disappointment i got from this cd was no tracks by air, but the cd is still awsome.
