Free Music Notes for High Fidelity
Free Music Review: REALLY Disappointing, Save Your Money
Hit: 1 Stars
Honestly, what can I say, this CD can hardly be called a sound track as most of the songs on this CD were barely, and I mean barely represented in the movie. I love the movie, but the CD does not have the feel of the movie and that is what I want from a soundtrack.
The really interesting songs in the movie are not on this CD so you would be better off to look at the list of songs in the credits, find the ones you like, and buy those individually...too bad too because High Fidelity is about a record store owner who has excellent and broad interest in GOOD music. This CD is not good.
It's funny, if you are a Cusack fan (as I am) the Grosse Pointe Blank soundtrack is sooooooo much better than this one!!!!!!!! Buy that instead.
Sorry, I don't know what the other reviewers see in this CD. I'm being quite honest here.
High Fidelity Poster
Like a great mix tape, the soundtrack to High Fidelity feels like it was assembled by a true music fanatic. Interspersing selections from cult favorites both old (Love, the 13th Floor Elevators) and new (Smog, Stereolab), it provides a window into the mind of the film's main character, a record store owner who's better able to express his love for a rare 45 than for his longtime girlfriend. --Steven StolderNick Hornby's novel about a middle-aged, obsessive record-store owner and his struggle with growing up in an adult world indifferent to the finer points of soul music was a sharp commentary on life, love, and a decades-long affair with popular music. If any movie has to have a decent soundtrack it's this one. And it does. Perhaps a little light on soul (Stevie Wonder is a hip pick, but how about Arthur Alexander or even Otis Redding?), it specializes in cult and indie bands that should be familiar to many. The Velvet Underground, Love, the 13th Floor Elevators, and the Kinks honor the old school, while Royal Trux, Stereolab, and Smog represent the newest wave. Elvis Costello appears with a strong pick from an odd era (early '80s), and his greatest imitator, John Wesley Harding, is featured as well. This probably should have been a box set--you end up wanting more.--Rob O'Connor
