In remembrance of Basil Poledouris: Your top 5 scores ?

On Nov 8th 2006, one of the most gifted composers in Hollywood passed away, Basil Poledouris. I had the privilege to meet Basil during his visit in Ubeda in July 2006. I also attended his unfortunately one and only concert during his career, conducting a suite from Conan; which was an unforgettable experience. Watching the DVD of the concert still always causes me goosebumps.

Farewell to the king

I you want to leave some comments for Basil and his relatives (like his longtime friends did, as John Milius, Randal Kleiser, Richard Kraft, ect.) please visit http://www.basil-poledouris.com/

My top 5 scores :

CONAN THE BARBARIAN
BLUE LAGOON
FOR LOVE OF THE GAME
FLESH AND BLOOD
WHITE FANG
