Synopsis

Amazon.com

In 2001, noted contemporary jazz composer-instrumentalist Terence Blanchard paid personal tribute to film scoring legend Elmer Bernstein's seminal jazz-influenced soundtracks at the Motion Picture Academy's celebration of the since passed away legend's 50th anniversary as a professional film composer. Released just after Bernstein's death, Blanchard's surprising score for Spike Lee's offbeat lesbian-impregnating comedy effectively offers up an even warmer tribute to his fallen hero: a fusion of cool urban jazz and occasionally Coplandesque modern classicism that's as intimate and engaging as it is flawlessly crafted. Distracted by only one pop-r&b affectation (Raul Midon's Caribbean-rhythmed ballad "Adam 'n Eve 'n Eve"), Blanchard's work here is also smartly informed by the evocative use of the DeFalla/Russ Latin classical standout "Will O' The Wisp," the perfect musical aperitif for the composer's own bracing cocktail of jazz-bluesy melancholy and sprightly elegant contemporary classical influences. Elmer would be proud, indeed. -- Jerry McCulley

CD Reviews

If you love BIG Instrumental sweeps this CD is for you!

(4 out of 5 stars)

"I happen to be a big fan of sweeping instrumentals along the line of Earl Klugh. Although I was a bit confused by this movie... well actually I just think Spike went off in to many directions. My listening ear honed in on the music. Being a fan of Terence Blanchard already I was pleased to add this soundtrack to my collection.

I purchased this CD on this past Saturday and have not parted from it since, it has been raining all week long here in Sunny Southern California and this music was just right for the mood. The title track "She Hate Me" is continued in different variations on this CD but nicely done in each of its incantations.

"This was a case of, again, watching the movie first, and liking the music. Truth be told, I liked the music more when accompanied with the movie's visuals, but there are still some stand out tracks. My personal fave is the title track, everytime I hear that tune I get chills for some reason. This would be the perfect soundtrack to listen to while taking a long drive on a nice warm spring day down the coast. I'll have to do that when the weather warms up. I can't say that I love the CD, but I'm glad I own it. Even if there are a few tracks I'm not totally into, the ones I do like are tight, for real."
