Americana (Original Music From the Film Wish You Were Here)

 

Composer: Jordan Shapiro
Lakeshore Records
RRP: £13.99
Release Date: 30 April 2013


Jordan Shapiro's score for Wish You Were Here is an interesting blend of tracks with a distinct 'Americana' vibe. However, I thought the album's title was a little misleading - as 'Americana' was the main focus here... surely this will confuse those wishing to pick up the album.

Shapiro has taken the 'Americana' theme and put his own twist on it to delivery an intriguing collection of unusual tracks. The album contains 24 tracks and lasts for 41 min, 41 sec.

'Fire Fall' is probably this score's most conventional track and has a catchy tune at its core. While I did enjoy this album, it's doubtful that I'd listen to it very often. It's certainly interesting, but definitely something that you'll either love or hate.
