| | Customer Reviews: Good Movie, Good Music (22 August 2010)I really loved the movie and decided to buy the deluxe-edition soundtrack CD and I'm happy I did. I wish some of the songs were on karaoke, too. A lot of people can relate to the movie, myself included. And Bad Sings Too (19 August 2010)I have already give kudos to Jeff Bridges for his Oscar-winning performance in Crazy Hearts elsewhere so we need not go into that one in detail. That one was easy. See it. Why? Well, if for no other reason that Jeff Bridges finally won an Academy Award for his lead role as Bad Blake in it, a role that he has been waiting for about forty years to cash in on. Every since I first saw Bridges as Duane Jackson in the screen version of Larry MacMurtry's great novel of the New West, "The Last Picture Show", I have known that he had the righteous, good-hearted, hard-drinking, devil-take-the-hinter post, sexually energetic and troubled "old geezer" that he personifies in the Blake role in him. He has done other fine performances but there is something just a little extra that he brings to that good-ole-boy role, young or old. Frankly Bridges, through the character of Bad Blake, an alcoholic, back roads traveling, down on his luck, hard living country singer, an "outlaw" singer for sure, carries the film. The story line, in film and in real life (think Kris Kristofferson, Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, and half of male Nashville), has been done to death. So Bridges' performance and the soundtrack are the important in redeeming the production. And part of that excellent performance by Bridges was his actually singing some of the material. That in itself was refreshing (and brave), somewhat akin to actors doing their own stunts. Of course having legendary music man T-Bone Burnett on board never hurts. The CD is a mix of Bridges film songs (including variations on some of the songs, as was done in the film) and other country and blues artists. Outstanding other songs, as always, are done by Lightnin' Hopkins (Sam Phillips) and Townes Van Zandt (an outlaw singer/songwriter who could have been put of that list above). If you are in an "outlaw" country mood get this. Hey, watch the film too, okay.  Great movie, great soundtrack (29 July 2010)If you like "Crazy Heart," particularly the music in it, then you'll undoubtedly like this soundtrack. Jeff Bridges doesn't have a great voice, but then the same thing is true of lots of C&W stalwarts: e.g., Steve Earle, Merle Haggard, Kris Kristofferson, and so on. Colin Ferrell actually does have a good voice, and together they make good (not great) music. We thought the CD was well worth the money. Crazy Heart Soundtrack (25 July 2010)It was nice to hear the "old style" country come out in this soundtrack. Both Jeff Bridges and Coli Farrell performed surprisingly well on their cuts. The mix of old country with Blue Grass and Folk music was a good combination. I highly recommend this soundtrack to anyone that likes the older country sound. BTW....The movie was good too....not great but told a nice simple story. Pleasant, thoughtful music (23 July 2010)This was very nice music to listen to. I liked it well more than the movie, even though I am not a regular listener of country music. |
