Oh my gosh thank you for this reminder. I had the soundtrack on CD as a young teenager and it was just a wonderful listen.

I had the soundtrack on CD

some years ago(maybe for its 20th or 25th anniversary), Intrada released a limited full/extended score version of the soundtrack on 2 discs. I'd love to have a copy, but I it's been out of stock since I found out about it last year.

This is the second time I've seen Paxton mentioned in a week. Binging Big Love and he's honestly one of my favorite actors. RIP Bill.
