Product Description

From Amazon.com

Soundtracks can sometimes be disjointed affairs, lacking the cohesion necessary to create a mood when collecting songs from various artists. This is a pitfall the soundtrack from the forthcoming film The Horse Whisperer melodically and artfully avoids. From the first honest, unsentimental notes of Dwight Yoakam's "Cattle Call" you are taken wholeheartedly onto this wide-open prairie of soulful, plaintive music. The Horse Whisperer soundtrack is a fluid, coherent gathering of the most literate and distinctive voices in country music today, including Emmylou Harris, Steve Earle, Lucinda Williams, Gillian Welch, The Mavericks, Iris DeMent, and The Hill Country Flatlanders (featuring original Flatlanders Jimmie Dale Gilmore, Butch Hancock, and Joe Ely). This spare, haunting ensemble of wistful twangs and hopeful hearts is a must-have for any country collection. --Dominique D'Anna

5.0 out of 5 stars Stunning - a great country album in its own right, 27 Feb 2005
By Peter Coats "Art Davis" (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The guys who put this together really knew what they were doing.

Most soundtracks are just a hotch-potch of songs by artists who are only on the album because they happen to be hip at the time when the film is made.

This album works on its own terms as a great collection of country music by a range of major artists.

Also, unlike most soundtracks or compilations, the songs sound as though they were all recorded specially for this project, which creates the kind of consistency of mood that you would expect on a normal album, except that you've got 12 different artists to choose from.

The songs by Emmylou Harris, Alsion Moorer, Gillian Welch, Lucinda Williams and Steve Earle are the standout tracks for me - poignant, authentic and evocative, and with great singing and musicianship.

Even if you haven't seen the film, this is a good starting point for anyone interested in getting into country music. If you like the songs on this record, any of these artists would be worth exploring further. Emmylou Harris and George Strait are country superstars in their own right.

5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT Romantic with Great Music, 25 Jun 2004
By Alper Keser (Istanbul, TURKEY) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Horse Whisperer (Audio CD)
Redford have made a fantastic film with great musics. Especially the music when he was dancing with leadrole woman, it is such a romantic moments. Also other musics takes you to the mountain, fields and the romantic feelings that you have forgotten already.
Thanks!

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent collection of western music, 8 Feb 2003
By Peter Durward Harris "Pete the music fan" (Leicester England) - See all my reviews
(#1 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
This stunning collection of songs is not a soundtrack score (that is available separately) but it does include songs that were used in the movie, together with other songs of a similar type.

The album is book-ended by two cowboy classics - Dwight Yoakam singing Cattle call and George Strait singing Red river valley. Both of these men are well suited to these songs and their covers are among the best I've heard. There are new recordings of three other oldies here - Big Ball's in Cowtown (Don Walser), Cowboy love song (Don Edwards) and Whispering pines (Iris DeMent). All of these are brilliant, especially Whispering pines. It is a pity that Iris only seems to record songs for multi-artist projects these days - a new album of her own would be much appreciated.

The other songs were all new at the time. Of these, the standout is A soft place to fall, by Allison Moorer. Allison is the sister of Shelby Lynne and her contribution to the soundtrack marked her recording debut. It gave her vital exposure. The song appeared on her first full-length album. Allison, like Shelby, has her own ideas about what sort of material she wants to record, so while her first three albums have been of an extremely high quality, she has not emerged as the major star that record company executives were hoping she would become.

Emmylou Harris, Gillian Welch, Lucinda Williams, Steve Earle, The Flatlanders and The Mavericks all put in great performances on their songs, some of which are not available on any of their own albums.

This is an excellent album which helped to re-awaken interest in western music, deservedly so.
