The Soundtrack Makes You Want To See The Film (Again)

So I’m listening to the soundtrack to Last Tango in Paris the other day – I picked up the LP more because I was on a Gato Barbieri kick, rather than for any nostalgia for seeing the film. I’ve seen Last Tango, I guess I enjoyed it – can acknowledge its classic/controversial status – but I can’t say […]

Rhian Sheehan: We Are Stars [OST]

Rhian Sheehan We Are Stars [OST] 360.com Fans of Rhian Sheehan’s music could sense both a fascination with space and with film scores – before he was ever overtly working in the industry.
