Trevor Jones - Nate and Hayes '1983;2018

Tracks list

Trevor Jones adventure masterpiece gets greatly-expanded 2-CD treatment!
Ferdinand Fairfax directs rousing pirate swashbuckler, Tommy Lee Jones, Michael
O’Keefe play titular roles with plenty of sword-wielding pizzazz, Jenny
Seagrove offers romantic interest, Max Phipps & Grant Tilly provide sinister
conflict, Paramount Pictures presents. Trevor Jones adds to legendary pantheon
of nautical period adventure scores with colorful seafaring symphonic score of
his own! Anchored by sweeping main theme, first heard in fragments during
lengthy opening sequence then in full for initial action sequence (“Escape
From Mumi Village Pt. 1”), this bright energetic idea balances major
harmonies with minor, moves at a rapid pace and literally sails with the wind!
Jones also offers a warm love theme, also unfurling with a degree of forward
motion, which serves as both music for romantic scenes and as the
“B” theme in the midst of the primary theme. Jones also devotes
significant attention to lively, rhythmic action material with emphasis on
jagged, aggressive rhythms in the brass. Following his success with The Dark
Crystal, composer Jones brings huge scope to his dynamic score with rich melody,
accessible harmony and thundering action. Lively stuff! A previous album was
made available, providing 40-minutes of well-chosen highlights. Jones scored
almost 80-minutes of music plus another 15 minutes of additional alternate and
source material. Intrada presents all of it, dividing it between the 79-minute
score on CD 1, the additional music on CD 2. The “Main Theme From Nate And
Hayes (Overture)”, identified as such on the verbal slates present on the
masters (albeit no overture appears in the film) is actually a literal reprise
of the initial action cue mentioned above and appears on CD 2 as a rousing
opener to the extras. The entire 2-CD set is presented from the 2-track stereo
mixes provided by Paramount. Everything Jones recorded for the picture is
present with just two cues displaying a small degree of wear and tear - though
even these remain reasonably crisp and dynamic. Nearly 40 minutes of new
highlights are far too numerous to highlight, though spotlight should go to
opening sequence where titles first appear, vivid sacrifice music and numerous
smaller cues surrounding pirate Bully Hayes imprisonment. Colorful
“flipper-style” booklet design by Kay Marshall, compelling notes by
Frank K. DeWald add to adventuresome atmosphere as well. Trevor Jones composes
and produces, Marcus Dods conducts, London Symphony Orchestra performs. Intrada
2-CD set available while quantities and interest remain!
