In this episode, I turn my "Listening To..." focus towards the inimitable composer Jerry Goldsmith and specifically, his music for films released in 1982. In that year alone there were five theatrical releases which featured his eloquent accompaniment - POLTERGEIST, NIGHT CROSSING, THE SECRET OF N.I.M.H., THE CHALLENGE and FIRST BLOOD. It was a typically busy year for Goldsmith and he produced several of his strongest, most celebrated scores, resulting in an Academy Award nomination for POLTERGEIST. I examine the aural connections between these efforts, a bit of the concert classical influences and their place in Goldsmith's overall canon.
