Fans of film music the world over have mourned the passing of Basil Poledouris, who died of cancer on the 8th of November.
While not as instantly recognisable as the Horners or the Williams of the movie scoring world, Poledouris has composed some of the biggest, most lyrically beautiful music to ever grace the big screen.
His highlights included: Conan The Barbarian (an absolute classic), Robocop, Lonesome Dove, The Hunt For Red October, Free Willy, The Jungle Book, Starship Troopers (one of my personal favourites) and Les Misérables. Even though he became less prolific in recent years, his legacy will never be forgotten. R.I.P.
