...Also, if you are going to any parties (which I don't do, because they reek…), bring along BT's "Believer," a song which puts the "rave" back in "techno." And of course, no hip soundtrack is allowed on the shelves without a fresh new number from Fatboy Slim, in this case not-even-the-best-on-his-album "Gangster Tripping." Other highlights include Natalie Imbruglia's somber "Troubled by the Way We Came Together" and Goldo's "To All the Lovely Ladies." The Go soundtrack don't impress me much, but is nonetheless fun stuff. Like...
April 2 marked the performance of what just could be the new soundtrack for The Phantom Menace. Not exclusively modern, the program did include Brahms' "Piano Quarter in minor, Opus 25" along with Bohuslav Martin's more contemporary "Memorial to Lidice" and Bela Bartok's "Violin Concerto No. 2."

Strange themes for a bunch of middle-aged industry veterans, but satisfyingly appropriate when you consider their enduring drive to crank out solid '60s-era rock 'n roll when their closest contemporaries have gone adult contemporary. "Free Girl Now," is a pounding emancipatory salute that, along with the similarly triumphant "Swingin,'" and "Room At The Top" showcases the band's "screw 'em" mentality...
...listen to soundtracks. I think they reek of commercial manipulation, leftovers and Celine Dion. But just like Go is the first movie I've seen twice since Showgirls, the soundtrack is the first of its kind in my collection of cassettes. (I don't listen to CDs. They reek of commercial manipulation...
