I haven’t listened to Legend in ages. Maybe I should do it this weekend.
Nick, are you listening to Goldsmith a lot?

I don’t have any meaningful statistics, unfortunately, how much I listen to what, but Goldsmith is definitely one of my favorite composers and perhaps I’d go so far to say Jerry Goldsmith is probably the most “important” (as in important for me) composer of film scores in my collection. He was the initial “starting point”, when I was a teen and started to search the record stores for film music, I bought every Goldsmith album there was, never knew quite what to expect. I have over 240 Goldsmith albums in my collection, most of his output. Not sure how “complete” it is, but I guess I wouldn’t stop now to complete the gaps. 🙂

Last Goldsmith I listened to was Basic Instinct. And I am not a fan of that score. But I try and try to warm up with it because everyone keeps saying that it’s so great. But it never really impressed me.

I’m afraid I OD’d on BASIC INSTINCT copies over the years.

I think both the score and the movie are excellent, among my favorite Jerry Goldsmith scored movies of the decade.
