Original score composed by Christopher Young. Producers include: Flavio Motalla, Christopher Young, Jonathan Price. Recorded at Abbey Road Studios, London, England. Includes liner notes by Lasse Hallstom. Christopher Young's score to The Shipping News -- the tale of a widower who rebuilds his life by moving with his daughter and aunt to Newfoundland -- has an appropriately pure, rustic feeling, thanks to its heavy use of uilleann pipes, pennywhistles, harps, fiddles, and hurdy gurdys, as well as strings, guitar, and piano. For the most part, as on the title track, "The Gammy Bird," and "Killick-Claw Harbor," this translates into a mellow, earthy prettiness; although pieces like "Deep Water Down," "Mooncussers," and "Death Storm" have a more sinister bent; while "Dutsi Jig" and "Seal Flipper Pie" have a more lively, Celtic feel. Despite its length and somewhat lulling tone, The Shipping News has enough diversity and engaging moments to make it work equally well within or without the confines of the film that inspired it. ~ Heather Phares Shipping News Soundtrack Music Shipping News Soundtrack Songs | 1. | Shipping News |

Shipping News Soundtrack
$11.99 Audio Mixer: Jon Gass. The original soundtrack to Bruce Paltrow's karaoke drama Duets follows up on the film's premise, collecting the actors' performances of pop favorites. Huey Lewis' "Feelin' Alright," Maria Bello's "I Can't Make You Love Me," and John Pinette's "Copacabana" may not equal the original versions, but they're still entertaining enough in the album's context. Similarly, Gwyneth Paltrow's duets with Babyface ("Just My Imagination (Running Away With Me)") and Lewis ("Cruisin'") are as interesting for their sheer novelty as for the discovery that Paltrow ...

$6.85 Personnel includes: Lalo Schifrin (conductor, piano, harpsicord); Bill Plummer (sitar); Bud Shank (alto saxophone); Stu Williamson (trumpet); Mike Melvoin (piano). Reissue producer: Andy McKaie. Tracks 1-11 originally released on DOT LP# DLP-25831 in 1967. Tracks 12-14 originally released on MORE MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE DLP-25919 in 1968. Includes liner notes by Andy McKaie. Digitally remastered by Doug Schwartz (Audio Mechanics, Los Angeles, California). J&R Exclusive Composer: Lalo Schifrin. Personnel: Lalo Schifrin (piano, harpsichord); Bill Plummer (sitar); Bud Shank (saxophone, alto saxophone); Stu Williamson (trumpet); Mike Melvoin (piano). Liner Note Author: Andy McKaie. Arranger: Lalo Schifrin. Before the days of "Music from and inspired by," there was "Music from." The album is solely comprised of music used in the Mission: Impossible TV series. All of it was composed by Lalo Schifrin for the show and is played on the album by his band, with him on the piano. This in and of itself is something special for the listener, as Schifrin is an amazing jazz player (played with Dizzy Gillespie's small band for a number of years, still occasionally plays here and there). The compositions are, of course, outstanding, as can be expected, as Schifrin spent quite a bit of time writing themes, etc., for the Hollywood set. He also shows his wide range on the album, spending some time away from his leanings on softer, lounge type songs, such as "Cinnamon (The Lady Was Made to be Loved)" for Barbara Bain's character. Most of the album, though, follows through mainly with much more exciting tracks from the series. These more exciting ones are mainly single character "themes," such as "Wide Willy" for Peter Lupus' character and "Barney Does It All" for Greg Morris' character. The highlights of the album are, of course, the opening theme, "Mission: Impossible," with its pounding bass piano riffs, and the ending theme, "Mission: Accomplished." Any ...

Shipping News Soundtrack
$15.65 This may be an early contender for world music album of the year for 2002. It was recorded on the volcanic island of Réunion, 600 miles east of Madagascar in the southern Indian ocean, and named after the French colonists who found it uninhabited over 300 years ago. This collaboration between the island's master musician, René Lacaille, and virtuoso slide and Hawaiian guitarist Bob Brozman is a revelation of rhythm, song from, improvisation, and juxtapositions of musics from Europe, Africa, the United States, and various Indonesian folk traditions. ...
