"Lawrence of Arabia" is my favorite movie soundtrack hands down. A genuine masterpiece from the creative genius of Maurice Jarre. The only complaint I have with the original soundtrack album is its brevity. I wish someone would issue the complete film score., I also have the LP version performed by the Philharmonia, but so many of the tempi are just not right. It is very good for the most part. But the stirring overture, main title and end title with exit music are not in the same league with the original. I am glad, however, that I have both the original film soundtrack and the Philharmonia versions.
