Product Review
Amazon.com essential recording
The great irony of John Barry's Academy Award-winning score for Out of Africa (which also took the Oscar as Best Picture) is that it almost never was; director Sydney Pollack had originally envisioned the film with native African music, going as far as laying the indigenous score down as he was editing. But the weight of John Barry's arguments--not to mention his considerable track record and composing gifts--held sway, and the composer delivered on his intent: a lush, romantic masterpiece for the ages. --Jerry McCulley

Summary: Not Bad 2010-07-23
Comment: The music seemed to be much more powerful in the movie, when it was paired with the beautiful images of Africa. Without the images, it loses its punch. Now it's just good background music for when you want something quiet and not intrusive.

Summary: Stunningly soothing and sublime! 2009-11-17
Comment: Simply superb!
After a long time found a movie score so rich, lush, deep and beautiful. The composition is a vast canvas like the wilderness of the story and the warm melody added with the orchestration only heightens the mood.
I will recommend it to everyone. It will haunt you long after you listen the album.

Summary: Excellent Music 2009-01-11
Comment: What an excellent cd. The music is beautifully haunting and keeps us very entertained. We had seen the movie a long time ago and recently got a chance to see it again. The composer has created a timeless piece of music that carries the listener to another time and place.

Summary: Mental Safari 2008-08-08
Comment: I was lucky enough to actually safari in Africa in the late 80's. With this CD I can close my eyes and remember the wonderful journey. Of course the movie provided visual benefits as well.
