| Description: | Soundtrack zum Film des Oscar-nominierten Schauspielers Ethan Hawke aus dem Jahr 2001 mit Songs von Jeff
Tweedy, Wilco, Billy Bragg, Robert Sean Leonard, â??Littleâ?? Jimmy Scott, und mehr.
Im selben Jahr seiner Oscar®-nominierten Leistung in Training Day gab Ethan Hawke sein RegiedebĂĽt mit dem Film â??Chelsea
Wallsâ?? (mit Kris Kristofferson, Uma Thurman, Vincent Dâ??Onofrio, Robert Sean Leonard und anderen). Hawke, ein Fan von
Wilco, wandte sich an Jeff Tweedy, um den Film zu vertonen, und Tweedy sagte zu. Zu dieser Zeit hatte Tweedy mit dem
Musiker und Produzenten Jim Oâ??Rourke (Sonic Youth, Stereolab) fĂĽr eine besondere Live-Performance zusammengearbeitet.
Wie es das Schicksal wollte, hatte Oâ??Rourke mit Glenn Kotche zusammengearbeitet, und Oâ??Rourke, der Tweedy Kotche
vorstellte, legte den Grundstein fĂĽr die gemeinsame Arbeit des Trios am DebĂĽtalbum ihrer Band Loose Fur.
Tweedy bat Kotche auch, mit ihm an einem improvisierten Soundtrack zu dem Film zu arbeiten, den er zu vertonen hatte. Der
Soundtrack zu Chelsea Walls enthielt improvisierte InstrumentalstĂĽcke von Tweedy und Kotche sowie Gesangsdarbietungen
von Robert Sean Leonard, Steve Zahn (Reality Bites, That Thing You Do !), Jazzlegende â??Littleâ?? Jimmy Scott sowie Beiträge
von Billy Bragg und Wilco selbst. - INCL. 2 BONUS TRACKSSoundtrack from Academy Award-Nominated actor Ethan Hawke's 2001 film.The same year of his Oscar®-nominated performance in Training Day, Ethan Hawke made his full-length film directorial debut with Chelsea Walls (starring Kris Kristofferson, Uma Thurman, Vincent D'Onofrio, Robert Sean Leonard, and more). A fan of Wilco, Hawke approached Jeff Tweedy about scoring the film, and Tweedy agreed. Around this time, Tweedy had collaborated with musician and producer Jim O'Rourke (Sonic Youth, Stereolab) for a special live performance. As fate would have it, O'Rourke had been working Glenn Kotche, and O'Rourke introducing Tweedy to Kotche would lay the groundwork for the trio's work together on the debut album by their band, Loose Fur. Tweedy also asked Kotche to work with him on an improvised soundtrack to the movie he had agreed to score. The relationships moved past Loose Fur and the Chelsea Walls soundtrack. Wilco was in the process of a creative sea change, the result of which would be the modern-day masterpiece, Yankee Hotel Foxtrot. Kotche joined Wilco and O'Rourke mixed Yankee Hotel Foxtrot. The soundtrack to Chelsea Walls featured improvised instrumentals by Tweedy and Kotche, as well as vocal performances from the film's Robert Sean Leonard (whom Hawke met when they both worked on the film Dead Poet's Society), Steve Zahn (Reality Bites, That Thing You Do!), jazz legend «Little» Jimmy Scott, plus contributions from Billy Bragg, and Wilco themselves. Two decades later, this influential soundtrack returns, not only with two previously unissued bonus tracks, but for the first time as a double-vinyl LP, including an online exclusive colored vinyl variant. (www.omnivorerecordings.com). The bonus tracks include Leonard's performance of Wilco's «Promising» previously only available in the film, and an extended version of Tweedy & Kotche's «Finale.» The packaging contains new photos, new and original liners from Hawke, a remembrance from Kotche, and an interview between Tweedy and Grammy®-winning set producer Cheryl Pawelski. Chelsea Walls is a pivotal piece in the creative development of Tweedy and Wilco as they emerged into one of the most important bands of our time. Critically, it revisits the creative burst that would lead to one of the first true masterpieces of the 21st Century in Yankee Hotel Foxtrot.
