I picked this up in a sale last week for £4.99 (which is cheap here in the U.K)...boy have I bought some soundtracks this week! 10 in the same amount of days and I have you guys to thank/blame for that. Since discovering and participating on this message board I've had a massive rebirth in soundtrack collecting inspired by the conversations here( and the knowledge that others are film music fans). Over the past few years I was finding it frustrating to be a lone soundtrack collector and not knowing anybody else who I could discuss them with etc. I thank you all for opening up this new horizon and my renewed interest in collecting again. Anyway, back to The 3 Musketeers. Its very much in the same vein as Robin Hood Prince of Thieves and in my opinion Kamen has evolved into a master of swashbuckling/action scores. This is very energetic stuff with some nice quieter moments too. Kamen seems to be able to write a score which sounds new yet old-fashioned and harkens back to the good old Korngold/Flynn swahbucklers without imitating them totally. Gae NP The 3 Musketeers
