Free Music Review: Paint Your Wagon Movie Sound Track
Hit: 4 Stars
We've enjoyed the movie thoroughly and wanted the original sound track to listen while traveling. The music makes one want to sing along; great stuff!Free Music Review: Hand me down that can of beans!
Hit: 4 Stars
Excellent music. Bad track transitions. Well worth it at under $10 despite the abrupt endings.Free Music Review: Do I know what hell is?
Hit: 3 Stars
This is the soundtrack to a movie that, for whatever reason, was a flop at the time. Maybe people just didn't want to see Clint Eastwood in a musical. As for the soundtrack, the songs (written by Lerner and Loewe) are very good. But the fact is, most of the actors here aren't very good singers. To be fair, Harve Presnell has a terrific musical theater type voice. But Clint Eastwood and Lee Marvin can't sing worth a lick. Clint has a weak voice and has trouble staying in tune. As for Lee, his off-key basso profundo warblings would be painful to listen to, if they weren't so darn funny. In fact, his rendition of "Wand'rin' Star" actually was a Number One hit in the U.K. Some people have said it may have become a hit as a comedy record, but that's just speculation. Fans of movie musicals may want to get this CD.Free Music Review: A Tivo Stinko
Hit: 2 Stars
I was watching this movie as a Tivo recording when suddenly, to my infinite relief, I realized I could stop the pain by turning it OFF! It was hokey beyond belief, which I suppose is why the actors blatantly did not believe in themselves or their world.
I have a feeling I'm missing some sort of movie-musical point here, and god knows "They Call the Wind Maria" is exquisite, but this movie was an orgy of cornballs shoved in all the wrong places.
Buy the songs, skip the movie.
Free Music Review: Paint Your Wagon Soundtrack CD
Hit: 2 Stars
This CD sounded quite "tinny." It didn't seem to be a very good recording. But since the movie is so old, I just figured the technology wasn't good enough to make a better CD from the movie. But I have to say I was a bit disappointed in the lack of quality.
But it arrived quickly and the fast service was still appreciated.
