I was lucky enough to obtain some of Dimitri Tiomkin soundtracks. Frankly, I tell you, it wasn't as easy as it seems. My collection is not complete yet (still looking for more of his works) but I guess now I have most comprehensive collection of Tiomkin's music in Russia. It took months if not years to gather it and I am kinda proud of it. Below's a list of what I have. Some soundtracks a reviewed (not by me - I am not a professional critic). If you want to read the review click on the title. Most of the reviews were taken from Musicweb (UK). Some of the links doesn't contain reviews - only pictures
