Free Music Review: The Perfect Merger Of Music To Cinema
Hit: 5 Stars
The movie's in-your-face depiction of the drugs-and-thugs decadence in the London underworld is encapsulated in this soundtrack, which was arranged by Jack Nitzsche and conducted by Randy Newman.
Mick Jagger is in full swagger in Memo From Turner, but there are numerous fantastic performances - Lost Poets, Buffy Sainte-Marie - with blistering bottleneck guitar solos from Ry Cooder and Newman delivering a gem with Gone Dead Train.
This is a perfect merging of music to cinema, as viciously brilliant as it is disturbing.
Performance (1970 Film) Poster
Most will be drawn to this for the throw-away solo track by Mick Jagger, "Memo from Turner." It's a troubling collection, which tends to be a fair representation of the movie, except for the always rock-solid Ry Cooder, who has since developed into an excellent film score artist. Here he offers three tracks, though none approach his best work. Randy Newman is always a pleasure, especially when not throwing himself at gimmickry, and Buffy Sainte- Marie's "Died, Dead, Red" is worth a spin. --Scott WilsonBlues Music CDs
