Ballad
Of Cable Hogue
A lesson in less is more for
Sam Peckinpah's off beat western. Goldsmith's tiny score, a grand
total of 20 minutes, is one of his most lyrical for the western
genre, incorporating a memorable theme played for a multitude
of genre instruments including Jew's Harp, Harmonica, Banjo and
Accordion. But what impresses the most is the ease at which Goldsmith
switches from slapstick to melancholy while developing his impressive
theme for Richard Gillis' main title lyrics - Tomorrow Is The
Song I Sing. Goldsmith also arranges a number of additional cues
for Gillis and Gillis provides two further songs.
Varese's Club release is a polished disc with informative notes
and crystal clear stereo sound but the obscure nature of the
film and meagre running time of Jerry Goldsmith's contribution
may mean it has limited appeal.
Expanded review to follow.
