REVIEW: |
The Soundtrack of Nicholas Roeg and Donald Cammell 1970 film that starred Jagger, James Fox, Anita Pallenberg and Michelle Breton has been re-released this year by Warner Bros. following the DVD release. One of the few Sixties films not to carry the burden of time, Performance has maintained the best portrait of Jagger's real life experience so far. Now this underground release brings back the original soundtrack coupled with a number of outtakes mostly of the most famous song, "Memo From Turner" that incidentally ahs been released also on Mick Jagger's recent anthology The Very Best of Mick Jagger from Rhino Records. The Soundtrack had great musicians on it like Ry Cooder on bottleneck guitar and dulcimer, singer Merry Clayton (on "Poor White Hound Dog") and Buffy Sainte-Marie (on mouth blow solo on "Hashishin") and all songs were arranged by the great late Jack Nitzsche. Tracks 14 and 15 are the famous Robert Johnson blues that were sung by Jagger during some film sequences, then come 5 different takes of "Memo From Turner" with a couple real outtakes, a couple coming from the film soundtrack in different quality. From the film directly is also "Natural Magic" II that features Ry Cooder on bottleneck guitar that seems to be played through the wind while the collection ends with an excerpt from Past & Present, the 12LP Canadian Radio Show issued in 1982 that talks about the film performance, nothing to do with the Radio Ad that was featured on a promo 7" from Warner Bros. in 1970 The disc is embedded with an Idle Mind Production image but this product is not coming from Japan but from Europe. |
