One could argue Goldsmith DID "write music for JUDGE DREDD" inasmuch as the trailer serves as a preview for what he MIGHT have done if he'd had time to score the whole thing.

I don't know for sure whose idea it was to hire Goldsmith for JUDGE DREDD, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was Stallone, who's very proactive when it comes to scores for his films ... he worked directly with Goldsmith on the RAMBO sequels, and personally asked for John Barry to score THE SPECIALIST. And of course, his ROCKY tunester Bill Conti was asked back for pictures Stallone neither produced nor directed, e.g. FIST, VICTORY and LOCK UP (a fine, woefully unreleased piece of work.)

NP: AIR FORCE ONE (by the guy who wrote the trailer for JUDGE DREDD)

Supposedly there is a 2 cd Judge Dredd boot of the recording sessions out there, but I can't seem to get a hold on it

I like the movie too, with its astonishing visuals and efx. The only let down is, of course, Stallone who ruins the character with his cheesy act and Dredd makes no sense without the helmet.

This score deserves an expanded release!

Interesting how often that when Goldsmith can't do a film, producers turn to Silvestri: JUDGE DREDD, REINDEER GAMES, THE MUMMY RETURNS ... nowadays I can see where they're coming from. For sheer relentlessness and variousness, BLOWN AWAY and VOLCANO (for example) could as easily have come from Goldsmith's pen. (I don't mean Silvestri is copying Goldsmith, I mean that they both have refreshingly idiosyncratic approaches.)

Second, I saw the film a while back (months after purchasing the CD) and it reminded me of THE ABYSS - Silvestri's score, though terrific, is so chopped up in the final film, it is truly a miracle that a coherent soundtrack was constructed. (Example: the first 1:30 or so of "New World" occurs toward the film's beginning, introducing Rico in prison).

Third, to paraphrase myself, the score is wonderful. Nowadays, it's a rare and beautiful thing when Silvestri gets to do an action film (along with witches, ghosts and holy men, he's used parent traps to go mouse hunting), but when he does, look out!
