"Elmer Bernstein was the maestro of the American West for over three decades and The Scalphunters (1968) is perhaps his happiest and most spirited western score of them all. The main theme is instantly memorable and an absolute classic.
Mastered from original three-track masters rather than the two track album masters, The Scalphunters has never sounded better as the album comes to CD for the first time. Sweeping, grand, rollicking and action-packed, Bernstein infuses an enormous amount of energy into this score.
As a special bonus we include demos of two songs written for but not used in the film. Those overly sensitive to political correctness when it comes to Native American Indians might be advised to skip the bonus tracks."
- Varèse Sarabande
