"Hans Zimmer goes Celtic with The Jigs", January 10, 2001
This review is from: An Everlasting Piece (Audio CD)
Director Barry Levinson, with screenplay by Barry McEvoy give us a tale of two young men who ask the question - "Toupee or Not Toupee", the answer could be in the uplifting celtic score by Hans Zimmer and The Jigs.
Zimmer who has earned Academy Awards, Grammys, Golden Globe Awards and Tony's with such memorable scores - "THE LION KING", "AS GOOD AS IT GETS", "CRIMSON TIDE", "THE THIN RED LINE", "DRIVING MISS DAISY", "BACKDRAFT", "RAIN MAN", "DROP ZONE", "THELMA & LOUISE", "MUSIC INSPIRED BY THE FILM K2"...and 1986 Oscar-winning score joined by David Byrne and Ryuichi Sakamoto for "THE LAST EMPEROR", one of my all-time personal favorites.
Varese Sarabande, Hans Zimmer and The Jigs make magnificent strides in fusing celtic themes with original instruments for the films story-line, the entire score is outstanding in content...a great listen...so New Age genre and "film-score-buffs", this is a keeper!
Total Time: 41:55 on 16 Tracks...Varese Sarabande 066202...(2000)
