Original soundtrack from fifth DIRTY HARRY installment, directed by Buddy Van Horn, starring Clint Eastwood, Liam Neeson, Patricia Clarkson. Lalo Schifrin anchors with surprisingly pretty theme spotlighting trumpet. Rhythm, nervous motifs carry weight during requisite action. Highlight: staccato, honking motif for tiny car chase sequence. Neat idea! Vibrant stereo presentation by Michael Matessino from multi-track session masters, nicely packaged production by Nick Redman with informative notes to match. Lalo Schifrin conducts, scores yet another Harry Callahan bullseye!
