      I will never forget the first time i saw this brilliant film.
      It had just been released, 1980 i think, and was playing on the big screen at a local theatre.
      Back then, there was still a lot of experimenting with mind altering tiny little things in my circle of friends.
      So, i found myself going to see it alone, and with the name Excalibur, i knew it would be a magical, mystical film. So, i thought i might try an experiment for the first time at the movies, having only done this before at several rock concerts and a few parties.
      Can you imagine what it must of been like for me. I took this little thing on the way there in the car. I arrived and i nervously stumbled to my seat and started to feel a powerful surge running through my whole being, i was barely hanging onto reality... And then.. Excalibur began..
      With those opening lines, with soft horns music, each one pulling me deeper and deeper into the film(which hadnt shown any scenes yet!) Then.. Bang! Excalibur emblazoned across the screen in gleaming, shining letters, with a thunderous blow of horns.
      From that moment i was riveted to my seat as every second of this masterpiece drew me in more and more.
      The big difference here was that what i had taken had hypnotically taken me right into every scene as though i was right there with Merlin, with a young Arthur. I could notice every microscopic detail as the sheer elation i was getting from what was playing out. There were also moments of fear at what may happen next, i felt just what Arthur, Merlin and Uther felt. It would be way too long for me to say how many parts i was spellbound with, though the first hour or so is very potent in that capacity.
      Ive seen it 4 times this past week and how i ended up here, was that i was doing some searches to find the names of the parts of music that are so brilliantly blended with some scenes.
      So, thats my story of my first journey with the majesty of Excalibur. If you try to recall how impacted you were upon your introduction to it, you may be able to get a sense of what im hoping to express.
      John Boorman, his excellence to craft such a spell so great that i truly felt like i was right there, i was awestruck.
      Every time i have seen it over all these years, i do relive that 1st time i saw it, but only to a lesser degree as that was truly a once in a lifetime experience.

    The score does have a sort of medieval and, especially with the trumpets, a chivalric sound in it. Overall "Excalibur" is probably the most amazing Arthur movie ever made.

    A requested score, that made me watch the movie again in years. The music is really well done by Trevor Jones, although I have the feeling that much of his music was rejected and got replaced by the known Wagner tracks (which fit not badly indeed).
    The tracks on the CD however were put together and mixed (I guess its the film mixing) miserably, that made it hard for me to edit them at least in acceptable quality. Anyway, I hope you enjoy it!

    Two best parts....one, when young Arthur kneels in the moat and asks the knight to swear him in as 👑 king...the knight ponders killing him with his sword...then knights him with his sword as Arthur, King of 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 England...the whole theater erupted in cheers...next, when young Arthur pulls the sword out if the stone...his father tells him to put it back!okay, one more, which I've tried to get a portrait or a tee shirt of....the knights of the round table are in the field at night...each takes an oath...AND THEY ALL RAISE THEIR SWORDS TO THE SKY..AN INCREDIBLE MOMENT IN FILM HISTORY WITH ARTHUR AND HIS KNIGHT ON HORSEBACK....JUST VISUAL PERFECTION OF THE KNIGHTS...AGAIN, THE THEATRE ERUPTED IN SHOUTS AND CHEERS...JUST INCREDIBLE DIRECTION BY MR. JOHN BORMAN....

      Yes agree...the pulling of the sword...knights of the roundtable when their swords are as one pointed unto the nightly sky...when he returns from the woods...and mounts a horse...knights crying what shall we do...and he proclaims...if you would be a knight...and follow a king...then follow meeeeee. The taking of the Grail to the King when Arthur states once more I shall be King...and the music is amazing, as he rides out...and the colour comes back to Nature...he and it are reborn...the wedding is fantastic...and then when Parsifal throws the sword into the lake...I have been there...very special place...the music again...then as Arthur is ferried across the ocean... majestic..mystical...glorious...not least as his last words were a Promise for all of us...one day a King will come again...few know it...but he is here...about to emerge amidst the wars and chaos that starts in 2028 and increases in 2033...darkness must destroy darkness...before the light and the chosen one will emerge...as victors
      Glory be to the Light and the new King...all hail the King...all hail the King...all hail the King. A time of all for one and one for all. Peace and Justice at last.

So this music is very apropos to today's time including this highly contagious deadly Covid19 and it's different variants , a modern day "plague'! This soundtrack is brilliant needless to say~ very sweeping emotionally! There have been so many musical film scores that have been true masterpieces, since the Golden Age of Hollwoody, primarily music by the late great film composer Max Steiner all the way up to today! The musical score for "Interview with a Vampire and "The Who" are other masterpieces says this unknown composer of classical, folk inspired music and full length folk opera. Thank you Soundtrack Fred.

A few years ago I bought a newer CD (on Amazon) that begins with all the original LP tracks (some of which are different than the actual movie tracks). The newer CD added the original film music tracks and many additional ones in the film but not on the vinyl or the first CD, including the Shifting Gears full version. Love listening to Shifting Gears when driving. Don't have a '68 Mustang 2 + 2 but I do drive a '70 GTO convertible with a 4-speed.

  • @mikesmovingimages
    @mikesmovingimages 6 лет назад +2

    Definitely a fun Arthur movie, with hammy acting, fantastic battle scenes and some unintentional humor among its serious sorcery. The use of Wagner's music, though, is at times laugh-out-loud comical, especially when quotes from Tristan & Isolde (3:35) come crashing into a scene from nowhere. The original music by Trevor Jones fits the campiness better. Even Fred's considerable suite-construction skills cannot hide the schizophrenic nature of the musical accompaniment.
