Intrada announces the premiere release of the 1958 Universal Pictures western Night Passage. Composer Dimitri Tiomkin was famous for his westerns, including such classics as High Noon, Gunfight at the OK Corral, Red River and Rio Bravo. Until now, very little of his score to Night Passage has been released. Here, Tiomkin displays his legendary talent for scoring the genre, including exciting action passages, broad sweeping themes and two songs written with lyricist Ned Washington: "Follow The River" is a soulful ballad, sweeping and wide, and "You Can't Get Far Without A Railroad" is a folksy, comic song that a vaudevillian might have called a "novelty number." Stewart, with his rustic, untrained baritone, performs both in the film (as can be heard in the Extras on this disc).
The CD was produced by Chris Malone using the original mono session masters stored in pristine condition at Universal. The score runs 52 minutes with an additional 24 minutes of extras.
