Looks interesting. Do I wish it wasn't solo. Not sure.

Could he (Williams) have written "good songs". I actually don't know. Maybe they wouldn't have fit the movie. Not sure why I care.

Great set!!

The success I presume, not the songs.

It must be the Paul Williams songs you like. In the context of the film, the Williams songs were supposed to be lame, terrible songs IIRC -- musical banana peels to show how lame and terrible the Beatty-Hoffmann duo was. You wanted them to be good songs? Ish Kabibble should look like Cary Grant? Marjorie Main should fit into a bikini? Prof. Irwin Corey should speak like John Gielgud? If that's the case (lame & terrible) they (the songs) were a success. Did Williams write them that way on purpose or was that the best he could do?? I guess the movie then becomes a cynical success. I just never could give it that much credit. I'll stick with Ebert.

It must be the Paul Williams songs you like.

"Ishtar is a truly dreadful film." - Roger Ebert - May 1987 - so you must both be kidding. OTOH, Ishtar gate is very interesting. Look it up.

Ishtar Hey, I liked Ishtar, Different strokes.

Joe Albany - maybe he was mentioned before.

Ishtar

I like Heaven's Gate.

Happy Birthday

Relatively short running time on the Ellman but great looking band.

I heard her with Boom Tic Boom. Very good.

Even the one with Joe Abodeely is good.

Oh yes, his debut album: The Uptown Live In Albany is very good.

Ouch!!

I buy Aerophonic CDs directly from Dave Rempis website.

Over The Rhine

I don't know why I keep looking at this thread. I really like the set.

Looks like Grace Kelly in your photo. I'd like to see the film. I know some have mixed feelings re: Frank. He was always pleasant to me when he was in Taos.

Nice one indeed.
