"The War Lord" - The Shadows Cover

Here is my version of "The War Lord".
"The War Lord" was written by Jerome Moross and is the theme tune to the 1965 film of the same name, starring Charlton Heston, Richard Boone and Rosemary Forsyth. The clips from the movie and the snippet of the original film score are included in this video.
The Shadows recorded their version that same year and the song was released as a single with the B-side "I Wish I Could Shimmy Like My Sister Arthur".
Recorded using the VSPack developed by Christian Boileau.

That rhythm guitar part is insane.

[@zoranvitez67]

Thanks for your comment. Bruce Welch is really great, his rhythm guitar playing on The Savage is incredible.

[@law13ie29]

You can almost play the melody in the verse with the chords alone. Chord for every note. Great exercise

ECCELLENTE performance, Zoran! Questo brano è un'eccezione per The Shadows, per l'uso del distorsore e tu hai ancora una volta azzeccato il suono! Congratulazioni! Cordiali saluti Luciano

[@zoranvitez67]

Hi, Luciano. Thank you so much for your great comment. Indeed, one of the rare Shadows tracks with distorted guitar sound. VSPack really gives excellent results and so close to the original. All the best, Zoran.

Fab Zoran, the Warlord is a brilliant film as well

[@zoranvitez67]

Thank you so much, Steven! 🎸 🙂

It was Franklin J. Schaffner's first big-budget film for Universal International and Cartier Enterprises in both Technicolor and Panavision with a stellar cast and crew. It was a major box office success with Jerome Moross' music theme, Hans J. Salter's music adaptation and Joseph Gershenson's brilliant music conducting. And if that's not enough for you, then check out Russell Metty's wonderful photography, Folmar Blangsted's excellent editing, the talented art direction of Alexander Golitzen, Henry Bumstead, John McCarthy, Oliver Emert, the masterful costumes by Vittorio Nino Novarese, the top-notch matte paintings of Albert Whitlock and more.
