Featured review
Outlaws had a great soundtrack score
The thing I really enjoyed about this 1986 series was the remarkable soundtrack score, by Joseph Conlan. It was a prominent part of the show, so surely the producers knew they had something good.
I can still hum the theme, the climactic action cue, and a wistful dulcimer (?) finale to one episode.
There's a difference between serviceable scores that pretend to be solid music (The West Wing's theme, IMO), and scores that really bring it. Bruce Broughton's Jag theme is great--and so is Outlaws's.
And I think the Conlan score is worthy of being compared with the Western-movie big boys: composers Bernstein, Goldsmith, Newman et al.
Too bad this enjoyable TV series got canceled, but somehow I still hope the show's music will find an audience.
