SINGER PAYS HOMAGE TO HOLLYWOOD HEROES
Singer-writer Malcolm Forest releases Hollywood Heroes, a new country CD - recorded between Brazil and the US, paying homage to Hollywood Heroes of the decades of the 20, 30, 40 and 50s...
The theme of this album is the myth of Cinema and songs gravitate around facts, characters and curiosities of Celluloid Land. Some of the best cuts include "COWBOY, COWBOY" (Malcolm Forest) an up tempo Texas two-step that is surely hit-bound."AMARILLO" (B. Alves - Anthony - Malcolm Forest) is a romantic new country ballad that tells the story of a Texan from Amarillo that becomes a star in Hollywood. Tired of the superficialities of life in Tinsel Town, he decides to go back to his Texas home town...
Product Description
New country music, traditional country, folk, pop and rock are the genres of this unique album by singer - writer Malcolm Forest. Recorded in Nashiville with some of the best musicians in town, the record takes the listener on a voyage to Film Capital of the World between the decades of the twenties and forties, with references to the star system and the romantic personas of the screen.
Song Descriptions:
1. Red River Valley (Malcolm Forest). A layback ballad inspired by this traditional western song. A beautiful surprise-solo with cross-the-border overtones makes up for a sleek production. A very catchy original chorus was added to this classic song.
2. Cowboy, Cowboy (Malcolm Forest). A Texas two-step fun and dance song. The "fastest gun alive" invites everyone to get on his or her feet and move! A sure shot for all country saloons and mechanical bull riders throughout the wild west and the world.
5. Amarillo (B. Alves - Anthony - Malcolm Forest). A modern new country style cowboy-star lament. After being deceived in Hollywood, Mr. "Rough Rider" "gets on his horse on his way home to Amarillo".
6. Movie Love (Robert Junkglas). A very clever lyric for a very clever song on "Hollywood love". A great performance throughout and a real American rocker. In the video production Malcolm Forest admits "it's only MOVIE LOVE", he's got a "Hollywood heart"!
7. Hollywood Heroes (Malcolm Forest - Anthony). This is a very beautiful ballad with all the qualities of a standard. It is romantic and suave with a contrasting heavy chorus. The lyric is also exceptional. It is colorful and interesting.
There are references to magic names of Tinsel Town in the lyrics. The chorus lists many film titles: Blue Skies, the Great Lie and closes with a "leave the stars to the sky" sign off.
8. She's a Super Star (Malcolm Forest). This is a rap about a cute starlet who's got Hollywood under her thumb.
9. Just Another Face in The Crowd (Dennis Caldirola - Joe Ericksen). A romantic ballad about the girlfriend that "went away to be a star". An American Mighty Tree original with enough withstanding power to last forever as a classic pop song in this production.
10. Oh! Susanna (Malcolm Forest - Stephen Collins Foster). Stephen Collins Foster's classic is presented in country-dance style. Fireworks effects include even a performance by "Silver", our heroe's heroe horse, all in homage to Hollywood Heroes.
11. Just a Woman (Jim Black - Malcolm Forest). Some say the most beautiful ballad on the album. The lyric refers to Greta Garbo with a double meaning: it could just well be someone that you've personally known very well... Malcolm Forest wrote the lyric collaborating with Jim Black, an Australian songwriter.
13. Oh My Darling, Clementine (Malcolm Forest - Percy Montrose). This great classic is presented in a traditional yet modern arrangement. A haunting soprano solo by Victoria Kerbauy plays the part of Clementine's ghost.
14. Hollywood Nights (Medley by Malcolm Forest). An overture Hollywood extravaganza, like the opening of a great musical. The "20TH CENTURY FOX TRADEMARK" kicks it off. Although the themes may sound familiar, they are all original with the exception of the opening theme, "HOORAY FOR CAPTAIN SPAULDING" from a Marx Brothers movie and Chaplin's "SMILE". "HOLLYWOOD NIGHTS" showcases some excellent music writing and production gusto.

Given the film's fevered, rooted-in-cold-war-history nuclear tensions and claustrophobic, intensely Russian settings, promising newcomer/Hans Zimmer protégé Klaus Badelt (The Time Machine and contributions to Gladiator and Pearl Harbor) was saddled with more than a few expectations in scoring director Kathryn Bigelow's Soviet sub thriller. But Badelt has admirably risen to the occasion, conjuring up an orchestral score (masterfully performed by the Kirov Orchestra and Chorus under Valery Giergiev) rooted in moody Russian classicism--and a dash of Zimmer's favorite Holstian drama as well. The centerpiece here is the neo-classical Suite for Orchestra and Chorus in G Minor, its four movements ("Fear," "Fate," "War," "Soul") powerfully underscoring the film's unrelenting pressure cooker of drama and emotion. Badelt's use of excerpts from Richard Einhorn's Voices of Light suite ("Reactor") is equally inspired, its haunting choral touches and spare, evocative arrangements imparting some compelling gravitas to the story's dark sense of impending doom. A score as noble, if emotionally ominous, as the 20th-century Russian masters who inspired it. --Jerry McCulley
