DOWSE Guide to the Movies
by Tony Lee editor of Pigasus Press

Ordinary Decent Criminal

various - Atlantic 8331622

What can you say? I'll shoot that record exec! Here we go again... To be fair, though, this isn't quite the same kinda thing. It boldly states that this contains music from, and inspired, by the motion picture! The majority of the material is 'scored' by none other than Damon Alban, the Blur main man. There's a fleeting visit by Lowfinger, Bis, Shack and Bryan Ferry. On one of the tracks, we actually get ol' Damon performing the song! Is we lucky or what? Not sure if your regular Blur fan will find anything of lasting merit here, although the music's good. It's just that Blur is Blur, and this isn't. A sprightly ten tracks that differ in many ways, and, as always, not having seen the film I can't appreciate (or tell) what is from the film or what's been inspired by it. Different, I'll say that!
