This movie is one I never get tired of watching. Great Score

[@obiwan88]

You got that right!

[@johnprudent3216]

The word "underrated" gets tossed around freely and needlessly these days. But if there was ever a reason to use it, then Bruce Broughton id definitely one. This is one of my favorite scores by him. It truly captures the heroic and adventurous nature of the Wild West film genre and it never sounds hokey. It's so good that it could be symphony-concert-hall-good. Another one of my faves by him coincidentally is from another western, Tombstone; then there's his amazing Young Sherlock Holmes; and Lost in Space.

[@bethkillian1903]

I agree whole-heartedly. Terrific composer.

[@bandersnatchbigfootexplore549]

In regards to Bruce Broughton he truly is the Maestro.

[@justinsublett5880]

One of my all-time favorite scores. It's brilliantly written and orchestrated. Sweeping, and full of the romance and power of the Old West.

[@Swarm509]

I had not seen Silverado till recently, I always assumed it wasn't a great movie or Western and was wrong on that account, but I recognized the music the moment I heard it, as did my girlfriend. Underrated is correct in this case, even if people know the music and associate it with Westerns they don't know the composer. Hell I didn't realize he did Tombstone till I read it here!

[@SoundtrackFred]

As the time for American western movies was past during the 80’s, director Lawrence Kasdan took the risk to portray a galloping adventure: “Silverado”, starring Kevin Kline, Kevin Costner and even Monty Python’s John Cleese as Sheriff was a big success. A success surely also caused by the magnificent musical support by the then relatively unknown Bruce Broughton, earning him an Academy Award nomination. Enjoy this joyride!

[@MaxTooney]

Wonderful soundtrack. Aaron Copland was no doubt one of his influences.

[@Waterboyofsuperman]

A fantastic score, no matter what you think about the movie. One of my favorite non-Goldsmith scores from the 1980s.

[@TTundragrizzly]

Awesome movie too.

[@Laceykat66]

I think it was the last great western made. (I only exclude Maverick because that is amove unto itself)

[@esnstrider46]

Love this score and the movie

[@kenneth7826]

Excellent movie..

[@justinsublett5880]

Might be the best score in my lifetime. And I'm getting long in the tooth now. Goddamn gorgeous brass scoring, with equally gorgeous woodwind figures and string power. Just a fantastic piece of cinematic music.

[@danieloconnor5089]

one of the best starts to a western ever with the soundtrack up there with the best movies ever

[@markswitzer2204]

This movie theme rates the highest on my list of favorites !!!!

[@MrsLaura316]

Love this soundtrack. It’s one of my all-time favorites. I took this along with me on my morning walk. 😃 I don’t know what it is about Western-themed music, but I love it. There are a couple places in this Soundtrack that always give me chills. The music is so stirring. Thanks for sharing Soundtrack Fred. You just made my day better. 👏🏻😃

[@AuntieMamie]

Is this one of the best scores? The Big Country is another and The Unforgiven (Burt Lancaster/Audrey Hepburn) as well. I listen to it as often as I replay the film dvd! I can visualize the scenes vividly the score is just that great. Thanks for showcasing this.

[@paulhoran3676]

"You're empty, Mister!!" I still say that line EVERY DAY when walking my dog.

[@LetitiaLatifahNajieb]

Loved the movie and the Western Books also. Music soundtrack is wonderful. Thanks.

[@costasgiotakis3895]

Saw the movie when I was eighteen,in 1986,seen it many times again ever since,soundtrack suite always gives me goosebumps.Thanks Laurence Kasdan for that great movie and Bruce Broughton for that amazing music.

[@notaire2]

Lebhafte Leistung dieses fein komponierten Meisterwerks mit farbenprächtigen Töne aller Instrumente. Der geniale Komponist/Dirigent leitet das gut trainierte Orchester im inspirierenden Tempo mit völlig effektiver Dynamik. Wundervoll!

[@Mdebacle]

R.I.P. Brian Dennehy.

[@dwasifarkaralahishipoor2223]

I hear echoes of this in Broughton's theme for The Orville.

[@KAH5371]

One of the few western movies that I love! Saw this when it came out in the 80s. The beautiful cinematography and this amazing music soundtrack, are what impressed me the most. I actually have this soundtrack! Thank you so much for this suite! You perfectly melded all the themes together so perfectly! I love how you do that! 😀

[@davidcorlett8749]

i agree its great

[@franceslucas8945]

Not normally a Fran of Westerns - but this movie has always grabbed at me and I am sure the theme has a lot to do with it ! Wonderful acting and a fabulous theme music !

[@MadMan731]

Hell yeah!

[@oddballssherman3785]

Today my jurisdiction ends here

[@CowboyMusicArt-pb8qu]

This video is a visual and auditory masterpiece!

[@joetruth5924]

Western soundtracks have to be as big as the west to be good. This one is great!

[@johnrandytucker3486]

1st. Class music & too go along ; Excellent Actors ! Can't do Better. Your Randy

[@Laceykat66]

Possibly the LAST "Great" western.

[@billytriplett9948]

I used to watch this with my dad when I was a kid... It's still one of my favorites, and I still quote some of the lines here and there :) Cavalry Sgt. : How do I know this is your horse? Paden : Can't you see this horse loves me? Cavalry Sgt. : I had a gal do that to me. It didn't make her my wife. Classic stuff.

[@rafaelaprende]

My bicycle turned into a great horse. ;-)

[@Yellow0ne]

Espectacular

[@johnwayne3206]

Thank you fred amazing.

[@iceomistar4302]

Thank you!!

[@kenneth7826]

The score was excellent....i enjoy the movie..but then again i am a fan of good acting..the cast was impressive 👍...peace

[@ramfaki1256]

Hello dear! First time I'm listening to this video of yours!Nice but my favourites're the older Biblical ones cause I adore old Biblical films!So,I'm used to listen to your soundtracks daily,sometimes several times a day or night😄❕I also liked "A Steetcar Named Desire" a lot,as I'd written you then❕ 🤗Best regards sir Fred❗

[@LaSharown]

Dear Fred, You've done it again for me I love this film and the score. This film has a great cast and is a fun movie. Where is Lawrence Kasden he did some fine work such as Grand Canyon. Grand Canyon also has a great score. My favorite scene is when Danny Glover goes to the cave to get Scott Glen the music is so awesome. Thanks, Fred❤❤❤

[@njuham]

A film I saw many times in the 80's, if it's on the telly then I always get stuck watching it, other films like that are Predator, Junior Bonner and The Train (B. Lancaster).

[@nathanaelreyes5854]

This movie is my fucking childhood let me tell you. One of my favorite westerns.

[@songsmith31a]

A main title theme that ranks with the best Western genre music. Basil Pouledoris is another name that has been similarly gifted.

[@furiosasinclair2018]

I always get this confused with the theme to Galaxy Quest. I was even whistling it one afternoon, and my partner says to me, "Hey, that's from Silverado, isn't it?" "Nope," says I. "Galaxy Quest, you idjit!" I have yet to live down the ignominy.

[@mikesmovingimages]

This music serves the movie well, which was in its day refreshing and a bit daring. But on it own, the score is clearly derivative of Williams and is pretty generic. It sounds like the music from that movie you just can't quite remember the name of ...or maybe it was that other film...

[@magcorchny599]

You do know that the score you're snottily dissing was nominated for an Oscar for best original score, right?

[@mikesmovingimages]

@@magcorchny599 Oh no! You don't say! I have once again failed to correlate my opinions with those of the Academy from decades past?!? How could I let that happen? Perhaps you can teach me to look at things like you do where one simply looks up how AMPAS voted in lieu of listening, thinking and reasoning in the formation of an opinion. Brilliant!

[@Stevarino1020]

@@mikesmovingimages All music is derivative . You could say John Williams borrowed from Aaron Copland and Elmer Bernstein who used traditional themes. There is creativity and complexity in this Music and it deserves every bit of its nomination.

[@mikesmovingimages]

@@Stevarino1020 Some music must be more derivative than others. Besides, I never took issue with the AMPAS nom. To me it is irrelevant. AMPAS has nominated plenty of dogs, and passed over many a gem. I listen with my own ears and don't look to award shows for validation.
