Howard Shore again masters the mood with this foray into the seamy underworld of William Burroughs. In this story about a place called Interzone, full of sinister centipedes and slimy "mugwumps," there is nothing better at giving listeners the creepy-crawlies than the depressing styles of what many could instantly identify as "beatnik" jazz. This is the music Burroughs and cronies like Allen Ginsberg cultivated to forge an anti-white-bread counterculture that was Ozzie and Harriet's worst nightmare. Shore re-creates this music as Ward Cleaver might have heard it way back when. To be even more authentic to the period, he collaborates with Ornette Coleman and also incorporates the Thelonious Monk composition "Misterioso." This soundtrack's best moments, however, occur when Shore drops the beat pose and just shines darkly. --Joseph Lanza

A Moody Treat .......2007-02-09

This is a fine addition to your Ornette or Soundtrack library. Certainly a treat for Coleman fans; The slow moody pace never hinders the King of Free from offering up a fresh life-giving performance. Ornette stays with the easy pace adding his superior, cutting, sometimes jumpy alto sound to the relaxed background score. I love this soundtrack! It's a Free Jazz-Minimalist-Movie Theme bit of sweetmeat. Yummmm!

was expecting more.......2005-04-08

Seeing how I LOVED the movie, I was expecting a lot from the soundtrack. In the movie, it works just fine, but on CD I wanted music from the movie as well as something else to make it interesting. For example they should have included some timeless movie quotes inside the songs or in between the songs. And I would have liked to see more traditional music of Morocco put forth in the mix to take you into the world of Interzone, instead of in just one or two songs. There is a lot of spooky orchestral work by Howard Shore as well as avant-guard jazz from Ornette Coleman. As time went by, I found myself listening to this a lot more; it works just fine as background music. I have to say my disappointment comes from me having other expectations.

inspired.......2001-03-16

I've been listening to this work since it was first available. I'm just now reviewing it though. This was one of those CDs that goes in the player and doesn't come out for a long time. It is just fascinating. This is an absolutely brilliant work from Shore featuring Ornette Coleman. I agree with the editorial reviews that one does not need the film to appreciate the soundtrack. Although, I do really like the film too.

I am a big fan of Ornette Coleman. It is difficult to compare this work with other Coleman work because the setting is o different. Coleman's soloing, and the use of his soloing, is insipred. In fact, that is a great way to describe this work - inspired (now I have a title for my review). Inspired by what? Burroughs, Naked Lunch, Cronenberg? I would love to know more about that.

You'll love this........2000-07-27

I saw the movie which was terribly boring except for the music.(Later I tried the original story but I...couldn't finish it.Anyway,I didn't like it ,either.)That was my first encounter with Ornette Coleman. I had known about him but never listened to his music before.I got ashamed of it. Why had I been neglecting him?Then I began listening.Now I have many of his albums.I like him when he was with Don Cherry the best, but this remains my favorite,still.Dark and moody...well,maybe somewhat fragmentary.(Most songs don't last 3 minutes.)But his music is fragmentary by nature anyway.This format even suites him,Iguess. And it is the composer who set the stage.Great collaboration! It can be a good introduction to Ornette's music.And if you are an Ornette fan already,why don't you listen to this? You'll love this.

Worth forcing yourself to listen to........1999-06-09

Excellent soundtrack by Howard Shore featuring Ornette Coleman. The music is extremely moody, and not easy to focus on. In the film, the music often seems to be coming from the apartment next door, almost as natural sounds. Music has a beat generation feel to it, not a modern update. Recommended.

Quite possibly Howard Shore's best work yet..........2006-08-24

I've always enjoyed Howard Shore's work, even way before he became a household name with the mammoth scores for the Lord of the Rings trilogy. I personally feel that he is at his best when doing the scores for Cronenberg's works.

With Naked Lunch, I think Shore managed to create a perfect soundscape to go along with director David Cronenberg's crazed adaptation of William Burrough's cult novel. Shore, along with famed saxophonist Ornette Coleman, join together to create a strange hybrid of mood music and frenetic jazz that fits the film perfectly. This isn't typical jazz and is very free form but still, it's definitely one of the best film scores I've ever had the pleasure of listening to. It's not for everyone but if you appreciate a good, moody movie score, look no further for this is one of the absolute best.

Lastly, it reminds me a bit of the score that he did for "The Cell", due to the Middle East sounding bits laced throughout the album and out of all of his scores, I'd say it resembles that one the most. The lonely saxophone also reminds me of the score for "Angel Heart", the sax in which was played by Courtney Pine.

great film,just as great music!.......2005-11-20

coleman/shore together are like what miles davis and angelo badalamenti would've come up with!yes,it's that good!have a few stiff drinks,pop this in,and close your eyes...

Perhaps not *quite* what you want..........2007-04-27

If you're like me and you have a hankering for "film noir music," you're probably thinking of a lonely sax playing an urban, 3 AM melodic line, backed by some bluesy chords from a small jazz ensemble. Like John Barry's excellent theme from "Body Heat," for example, or something like Jerry Goldsmith's theme for "Chinatown."

Never mind the fact that the great majority of films noir from the classic period (1941-1955) didn't have jazzy background music like that at all, but was usually scored with quasi-classical romantic string music (with a solo violin) or bombastic, brass-heavy instrumentals.

Anyway, this CD isn't the 3 AM sax stuff.

Not to say that there isn't some of that on here. You might like "Godfather" (not, however, the theme you're thinking of from the Francis Ford Coppola Godfather films), or "Blues for Guylaine," or even the bluesy passages from Bernard Herrmann's "Taxi Driver" suite.

But there's some odd stuff on here that causes me to wonder how, precisely, it qualifies as "film noir."

For instance, the dreamy carnival music from "The Elephant Man," or the angular string music in "Buckets of Blood" (from "Carrie," not the Roger Corman film). Seems like a reach. The first cut, "Turning Pages" had me unpleasantly surprised, and triggered my I've been ripped-off alarm. And "Chop Shop" has a wah guitar that sounds a lot more like a 70's blaxsploitation film than film noir.

The inclusion of Angelo Badalamenti helps redeem the collection; his music for "Twin Peaks," "Fire, Walk With Me" and "Mulholland Drive" redefines what a noir theme should sound like.

This CD is odd, no doubt about it. "Godfather," which sounds decidedly noirish, is from a comedy/drama film about a man who's paid to impregnate lesbians. "The Wrong Man" music is relentlessly perky but comes from a bona fide noir. (Okay, a Hitchcock noir, not quite the same thing.)

The key here, I guess, is to enlarge the scope of what you think noir film music ought to be... But perhaps a better title for this collection of music might have been "Neo-Noir!"

Still, credit must be given to liner notes writer Eddie Muller and his Film Noir Foundation for at least directing the current noir wave. His book "Dark City" turned me - and probably many others - to noir. Long may his tribe increase!

Summary: If you're looking for classic/sterotypical, 3 AM wet-pavements-in-the-Dark-City noirish stuff, try John Barry's "Body Heat," which I enthusiastically recommend. Barry practically *owns* that silky/sexy slow sax genre.

Nice imaginative collection.......2006-08-04

A collection of musical cues from various film noir scores, but imaginatively assembled to constitute a new score for a nonexistent movie. Cleverly done, choosing from excellent sources, and not going for the easy or the obvious. It's exciting to hear someone making a connection between Bernard Herrmann and Angelo Badalamenti.

Superstardom, the first major-label-album of naked lunch, is probably one of the best pop-rock albums, I've ever listened to. The songs are so powerful that you have to listen to them again and again. The last track of the album, "Me & my agony" seems to be one of the best rocksongs ever. So, if you haven't heard about Naked Lunch yet, hurry up! You're missing very much! Naked Lunch 4ever!
