2.0 out of 5 stars The score on the score, December 17, 2001

By 

William J McMillan (Orange, CA United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Score (Audio CD)

Like James Ashby, I was looking forward to the great music played by the legends of jazz throughout the film. Unfortunately, that's not what I got. I should have read the CD closer, but once I popped it in the player I was disappointed to find that what was actually there was the score, which while entertaining, is somewhat repetitious. I doubt that I will play it again, and it's too bad the production company didn't think to capitalize on all the great music they incorporated into the film. Particularly Diana Krall's closing song. If you're buying the CD for the music heard behind the scenes in the film ie. Cassandra Wilson, Mose Allison, Diana Krall don't bother because it's not there.

3.0 out of 5 stars Where is the music?, July 17, 2001

In the film, the sound track on the CD was heard in the faint background, but the film was filled with good jazz, Diana Krall vocals and the like. Where did they go?

3.0 out of 5 stars The Diana Krall Music Is Missing!, August 30, 2001

I would have bought this CD in an instant if it had included the last song on the film, entitled: "I'll Make It Up As I Go," by Diana Krall. (I'm sure more than a few people agree that was a great song.) It's not on any of her previous work. The only hope is that she included it on her new CD, out Sept. 18th, as a bonus track.
