A CLOSE CALL {1985’s North and South} (by Bill Conti & The London Symphony Orchestra: Highlights from The Right Stuff/North and South soundtrack)

SUMMARY:                    RUNNING TIME: 2:01 Min.

In 1985, composer/conductor Bill Conti and The London Symphony Orchestra released an instrumental album consisting of highlights from 1983’s The Right Stuff and 1985’s North and South TV mini-series.  This suspenseful piece recurs throughout the North and South saga. 

Note: As of 2008, a limited-edition CD set of Conti highlights from North and South Books One & Two was released.

REVIEW:

Familiar to North and South fans, this short track plays up some of the epic’s possibly confrontational cues.  As brief as it really is, “A Close Call” is a solid enough instrumental from composer-conductor Bill Conti. It just makes one want to hear more of the North and South score.
