| | Composer Danny Elfman renews his acclaimed partnership with director Tim Burton to create the score for the heartwarming new film Big Fish, featured on the original soundtrack recording from Sony Classical/Epic/Sony Music Soundtrax with the end-title song "Man of the Hour," written by Eddie Vedder and performed by Pearl Jam. Danny Elfman's music has been a fixture in many of Tim Burton's films in the past two decades - Sleepy Hollow, Mars Attacks!, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Edward Scissorhands, Batman, Beetlejuice and Pee Wee's Big Adventure. His score for Big Fish is integrated with a rich array of classic pop and rock recordings from the past, including Elvis Presley's "All Shook Up," Buddy Holly's "Everyday," The Allman Bros.' "Ramblin' Man," Bing Crosby's "Dinah," Canned Heat's "Let's Work Together," Dock Boggs' "Sammie, Where Have You Been So Long?" and The Vogues' "Five O'Clock World." The whimsical selection of songs underscores the imaginative plot of Big Fish, a journey that delves deeply into a fabled relationship between a father and his son.

Notes & Personnel Info |  | Original score composed by Danny Elfman. | | Recording information: Air Studios, Lyndhurst Hall, London, England; Studio X, Seattle, WA. | | Tim Burton's charming 2003 film relates a series of fantastical tales, as narrated by a bed-ridden father to his estranged son. As with most Burton projects, the string-laden score for BIG FISH is provided by Danny Elfman. Here the renowned composer mixes energetic, upbeat passages with quiet, elegant moments to complement the alternately whimsical and moving events on the screen. The title track juxtaposes gentle orchestral waves with a spry, down-home fiddle melody, while "Leaving Spectre" conjures up an ominous mood. In addition to Elfman's score, the soundtrack presents "Man of the Hour," a reflective tune by Pearl Jam that touches directly on the movie's themes. BIG FISH also features tracks by a refreshingly wide range of artists, from Bing Crosby (a classic Dixieland take on "Dinah") to the Allman Brothers Band (the easy-going "Ramblin' Man"), all of which contribute to the movie's pleasantly episodic vibe. |
