Music reviews of Ed Wood: Original Soundtrack Recording
Music Review: Great work, representing a great man...
Rating: 5 Stars
Do I mean Johnny Depp? Tim Burton. No! I mean ED!
If you enjoyed the film as much as I did, you'll love this soundtrack. It starts with with Jeffery Jones monologue, as Ed's magician friend Criswell. The music reminds you repeatedly of the fine film--one of the funniest on record.
Then there's the other monologue. Who can forget, "Pull the string! Pull the string!"
If you have no use for Ed Wood, the film or the guy, this may not appeal to you. But, again, if you love the film like I do, don't miss out on this CD!
Description of Ed Wood: Original Soundtrack Recording
To capture the story of the director of Plan 9 from Outer Space, Howard Shore plays with '50s-style camp. On the minus side, this disc has no consistent mood and puts too much emphasis on the silliness over the more original and slightly more serious pieces. The overriding form here is "exotica," drawing obvious inspiration from Les Baxter (who was often himself a budget-horror-movie orchestrator). But Cuban noise maker Perez Prado, cult organist Korla Pandit, and Shore's own variations on "hep" get a bigger slice than the more elegant and eerie work of the London Philharmonic Orchestra, complemented by Cynthia Millar's Ondes Martenot (an early synthesizer) and Lydia Kavina's theremin. Still, Shore does a fine job re-creating phrases from old production-music tunes. The dialogue snippets are still hilarious. --Joseph LanzaGeneral CDs
