Notes:
Another great soundtrack by Tommy Tallarico.
His style is pretty obvious from songs like
"Boss Tune" and "Gloomy Tune", where he uses
something you could call a trumpet ensemble and
a solo flute with a glissando ending in a
tremolo. (Pardon me if I'm wrong, but I think
that's how these things are called.)

Something that's also typical is the way he
actually ends the songs before they loop,
adding a little pause between. It makes it a
lot easier to trim and loop, and I think it
gives a nice effect as well. :)

The lack of percussion makes the soundtrack
really light. The most we get are some jazzy
use of cymbals to keep a rhythm on "Camel Jazz"
and "Truban Jazz". This "arabian jazz" mixture
is great here, though.

But from all tracks, my favourite is "Gloomy
Tune". I wish this song was performed by a
small orchestra, could end up really nice...

Anyway, not all songs were composed by
Tallarico, and were in fact adapted straight
from the movie soundtrack, composed by Alan
Menken. Credit where it's due, these songs were
tagged with both composers.

his website.)
