It is at once chilling and plaintive and nostalgic, but it also evokes the humanity of The Godfather, gives the image of a man instead of a ruthless monster, which is a brilliant composition feat. "Tlie Halls of Fear' is another track of fine music off the LP. The subject of fear is quite successfully explored through this song, and not in a melodramatic fashion. All of the music for "The Godfather" was composed by Mno Rota. He's created a work worthy of attention, even if you are not at all interested in the film, n'd a music to "A Clockwork Orange" is also worth exploring even out of con "FRIENDS" community orchestras.

There are two such soundtracks currently in release, and one that comas somewhat close to this distinction. Soundtrack music from "The Godfather" and "A Clockwork Orange" are the two albums that stand musically on their own and both, interestingly, are from movies enjoying massive critical and box office succcss. "TIm Godfather'' album, (Paramount Records PAS 1Q03) is an excellent example of extremely evocative music. Since the movie is a ''period piece." the music must not transcend this limitation. It does not, and yet the music is rich and interesting without, except for one cut (the vocal by Al Martino), being at all typed.
