La-La Land Records and Paramount Pictures proudly present Nevada Smith: The Paramount Westerns Collection, a deluxe 4-CD soundtrack collection of original film score recordings from Paramount Pictures' big-screen westerns Nevada Smith (1966), El Dorado (1967), Three Violent People (1957), Kid Rodelo (1966), Walk Like a Dragon (1960), Will Penny (1968), The Hangman (1959), Branded (1950), The Furies (1950), Copper Canyon (1950), and Streets of Laredo (1949).

Meticulously restored from Paramount Pictures' vault elements, this exciting compilation features original score recordings from eleven of the studio's western features spanning the course of two decades. Most of these recordings are making their world premiere here, and many contain material not heard in their respective films. It's a sonic treasure chest, showcasing Hollywood's top Golden Age maestros at the apex of their craft, working in a legendary genre. Composers Alfred Newman, Nelson Riddle, Walter Scharf, Johnny Douglas, Paul Dunlap, David Raksin, Harry Sukman, Roy Webb, Franz Waxman, Daniele Amfitheatrof and Victor Young are represented here, their music encompassing a breathtaking variety, from grand orchestral sweep to spare and intimate moments – and everything in-between.

Produced by John Takis and Frank K. DeWald, with audio restoration by Chris Malone, this special 4 disc collection is limited to 1000 units, and features a 36 page booklet with exclusive, in-depth liner notes written by the producers. Dan Goldwasser's art design corals the packaging together in classic fashion.
