The soundtrack to the Michael Douglas and Val Kilmer African adventure story The Ghost and the Darkness is divided between Jerry Goldsmith's dramatic score, recordings of Samburu tribal music, and two songs by Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan. Goldsmith's score adapts indigenous beats to traditional Hollywood melodrama, resulting in a surprisingly provocative set of incidental music. The Samburu tracks are essentially mood music, while the Khan songs are predictably excellent. In other words, The Ghost and the Darkness is a mixed, but enjoyable, bag. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
