RAY COLCORD
The King's Guard   Citadel 77129  14.99
Symphonic-styled with synthesizers filling in for many of the
instruments.  Full of humor, color and action.  70 minutes of lively
though generic music.

JOSEPH LoDUCA
Xena: Lyre, Lyre Hearts On Fire   Varese 66145  15.99
If you're a fan of the show this might be your cup of tea.  Everyone
else note: these are mostly vocals to a rock musical episode, including
renditions of "We Can Work It Out" and "War" performed by the Xena
cast.  There are a few scattered Joseph LoDuca instrumentals but the
album is mostly songs.

PIERO PICCIONI
Il Dio Sotto La Pelle   ET 931 (Italy) 19.99
Jazzy, up-tempo tracks mingle with softer melodic moments.  Overall
tuneful music for a 1972 production a.k.a. "God Under My Skin."

HANS ZIMMER
Mission Impossible 2   Hollywood 162277 (Score) 16.99
45-minute score album includes several Latin-flavored tracks featuring
guitar.  Hard driving action music often features chorus against
synthesizers.  Percussive "Mano E Mano" track a highlight.
