MICHAEL PENN
March
1989 Canada pressing
Glad I finally found one of THESE too!
Love me some Michael Penn, a GREAT songwriter who doesn’t get anywhere near the credit or respect he deserves.
“No Myth” is one of my all time favorite songs of the #80s but it’s far from the only great song he wrote.
March is full of really great stuff, and the same can be said about Free-For-All as well as Resigned.
Sean and Christopher Penn’s brother, but equally as good at what he does as his more famous brothers are (and were) at THEIR craft.
Just a stellar record.

Reno, das ist die kleine prekäre Schwester von Las Vegas – aber ohne jedes Glanzversprechen. Eher ein Restposten als ein Mythos. Das Debüt von Paul Thomas Anderson setzt schon damit auf das Gegenteil von Kino als Rausch. Hier gibt es keinen Aufstieg, keinen Fall, nur einen Kreislauf von Geld, Nähe und Schuld. Alles zirkuliert. Wer hier spielt, spielt gegen den sozialen Abstieg und verliert, in kleinen Raten aber unausweichlich. Mit Philip Baker Hall, Gwyneth Paltrow, Samuel L. Jackson und John C. Reilly. (ARTE, Wh.)

The acclaimed film/TV composer also reflects on his relationship with performing, his approach to melody writing, and his love for The Chamberlin keyboard.
