CD ReviewsThe Mob and Mr. Williams Mr. Richard D. Coreno | Berea, Ohio USA | 12/11/2008 (4 out of 5 stars) "The CD has yet to be released domestically, but the Paul Williams score for this comedic musical of children portraying 1920s-era gangsters (starring Scott Baio and Jodie Foster) is worth tracking down. The 10 numbers have the Williams wit throughout - see the politician/sitting by the kitchen/said he caught his fingers/in the well he was wishing in - and are performed by a number of adult singers; including Williams, Archie Hahn and Liberty Williams, with the actors lip-synching in the film. Williams is a prolific songwriter who has produced a number of excellent scores for movies. This album is near the top of that list." Not Much To Say: 4* D. R. Williams | USA | 08/18/2010 (4 out of 5 stars) "Either you know of this rarity(& love it), or you have no idea what it is(& you're curious); either way, it's worth the low price, and isn't readily avaiable in the U.S., anyway.
It's Baio's first job, and the continuing of Foster's turn into a mature performer(regardless of the whole 'kid characters' concept). And the music is almost too catchy sometimes(in a good way)! If you enjoy the movie, you might wanna grab the soundtrack! Do so..." |
