He is not only on par with John Williams and Ennio Morricone but he is easily on par with some of the best in music history like Wagner, Brahms, Mozart, you name it! He made music the good old way of instrumental and vocals (choir) in a symphony that not only sounds powerful but evokes a feeling inside that nowadays is very rare to find! He is a genius of a forgotten time and makes, ... sorry made better music then all of this rock and pop culture today together!

I usually find "The Greatest Ever" to be unfair to all the other contenders. And there ARE a lot of great soundtracks: The original Star Wars, Oblivion, Legends of the Fall, The Last of the Mohicans, Gladiator, The Road to Perdition; just to name a few. But I have to say: I think I agree with you on this being the greatest of all.

It's been said that Poledouris was the Wagner of the 2nd half of the 20th century. With talent to create an epic, emotion-packed and yet lyrical score like this, who could ever doubt it? Such amazing music from a truly gifted man. R.I.P., BP.

Well at least Poledouris himself is seen in the action and that's great!!! Hail! A crime they didn't make him compose other Conan OST after the 1st two films...the 3rd Conan (reboot) isn't even ready yet and he's long dead since: what a WASTE!
