Working Wednesday- I always loved the music from King Solomon's Mines, even though the movie is rubbish (albeit something of a guilty pleasure) - it's a great fun Jerry Goldsmith score.

And since I'm writing about the search for this legendary location today, it's an appropriate musical medley....

I saw this movie once when I was 12 (I think. It was ~26 yrs back) only because my family knew Ken Gampu personally. The film sucked horribly (except for the bit where the characters roll down the hill in the big pot– hilarious), but yeah, this music!

I'm commenting, because listening to the vid you embedded made me exclaim severally, "So that's where that remembered snatch of melody came from." Also hearing pre-echoes of The Mummy soundtrack in this (about 06:12 onwards). Goldsmith was awesome at mood and place, I think. A lot of the 'newbies' don't get that right.

Thanks!
