BIG PIG - Soundtrack now available - fav tracks?
Thanks to hedogoji for posting where to find soundtrack (on 'Great film score' by varialectio) - as per info provided - CD is paired with Icehouse's Boxes and can be ordered internationally here:

Of course I rushed out immediately to JB Hi-Fi and purchased it - what a joy to listen to on CD rather than vinyl (only because my record player is a little dated & well used now . . . because there is something unique about the sound of vinyl - whatever right - Razorback OST is now on CD)
Now although I love all 13 tracks and despite the main theme being awesome and the guitars of The Desert/Saltlake Walk capturing Russell Mulcahy's surreal visuals perfectly - I'm going to have to settle that my number one fav is:
"Jesus Wept" - when Jake is at the waterhole, releases his dogs after the 'big fella' and then starts shooting at the boar.
This track still manages to raise arm hairs during its first minute - it is epic and tragic (as he is unable to kill it) and finishes with a hint of 'Sarah's theme' when Jake scrounges through the mud and finds Beth 'the Kangaroo lady' Winters diamond ring.
As per my earlier BIG PIG post - so many fond memories - now I can listen to them too!!
Anybody else have a favourite track(s)?
I didn't mean to call you a meat loaf, Jack !
