    Did hGW write the action theme for Humvee Chase, Day Search, ETC. My understanding was he just did the choir parts?

      Looks like just arranging…
      Humvee Chase theme presented also in Mine Shaft 2 and Hummerhead (which have solo Zimmer credits)

    ‘Going To War’ in album mix has some additional instruments
    Why it’s not listed as alternate?

    • Anon February 19, 2022 at 12:44 am - Reply

      Harmonica, i meant
      Also Secure has alternate guitar riff at end

    • Stéphane H. February 19, 2022 at 9:15 am - Reply

      Because it’s not. All the instruments are there, just mixed differently.

      And btw strange desicion was made in Album (chopping various tracks)
      Why it was made that way?
      for example in “Nuke” Mine Shaft 2 akwardly cuts into middle part of Butterflies, etc
      or Secure (Going To War akwardly cuts into The Bomber)

      because this is still when Zimmer OSTs were put in a blander and the results spat out onto a disc
