| | Guilty: 30 Years Of Randy Newman CD Randy Newman Discography of CDs
(1 Customer Review)
Includes an 80-page booklet with liner notes by Randy Newman, Lenny Waronker, Russ Titelman, and Timothy White as well as complete album discography.
This four-disc set fulfills two functions: on its first two discs, it provides the perfect guide for those uninitiated to Newman's world. The third disc of previously unreleased tracks and the fourth, containing selections from Newman's film scores, are aimed at the Newman completist. In both cases it works well. The songs on the first two discs are well chosen, perfectly illuminating the irony-drenched, cynical, but often humorous (however darkly) approach Newman always took to songwriting. On "Political Science" he mocks diplomatic relations, and on the beautiful, downcast "I Think It's Going to Rain Today" he quietly bemoans the state of humanity over a breathtaking melody.
Listeners will be reminded that Newman shone as a melodist, belonging in the first rank of American composers alongside Gershwin and Stephen Foster. The rarities disc (which features both demo versions of familiar songs and tunes never heard on a Newman album in any form) will be the real draw for those who know and love Newman, and will further illuminate his legacy for those coming to this unparalleled artist's work for the first time.

Entertainment Weekly (12/11/98, pp.74-76) - "...[GUILTY is] chockful of all the loneliness, godlessness, cruelty, misery, and misunderstanding the species can muster; wrapped in orchestrations so spectacularly beautiful they can only be described as transcendent..." - Rating: A Dirty Linen (6-7/99, p.69) - "...Versatile and witty, and more than just a little too clever for Hollywood, Newman's music pokes fun at society's imperfections with a very sharp stick." Mojo (Publisher) (03/99, p.90) - "...King of Hollywood's hokum and still a cynical goat. Good ol' Randy."
