Basil Poledouris - Riddle of Steel/Riders of Doom (Conan the Barbarian, 1982)

When I was a kid, Conan the Barbarian was my favorite movie.

A large part of that was the epic soundtrack. There are a number of tracks on it I think would fit here and I'll eventually post others but this was my favorite.

Favorite parts:

  • 2:13 vocals start
  • Trumpets at 3:24

Basil Poledouris took inspiration from the Carmina Burana by Carl Orff when creating the Conan soundtrack. The CB is epic as well and is worth a listen. Most people are probably already familiar with the opening movement (O Fortuna).
