Never really that big of a James Newton Howard fan .. until my internship at universal. i usually buy the non-score soundtracks. but I picked up the collateral soundtrack .. since it was just lying around .. and had tom cruise's picture on it, and i was eventually really impressed by it. not only by james newton howard .. but by the other artists as well (entire list --http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0002LJUCG/qid=1091573265/sr=2-1/ref=sr_2_1/002-8677277-0804059) ... that's all!
