Review by
Thomas Glorieux:
Randy Edelman is a composer who often can score quickly a 5 to 6 movies
per year, while other times can have the time to work on his creations
with additional amounts of rest.
Whether Ed TV is that creation with more effort, at least it worked well
in the film of Ron Howard and could have benefited from a wider release,
or so it should have been in the final phase. However, after all the songs
by Jon Bon Jovi, Barenaked Ladies and Otis Redding among the few is Randy
Edelman's sole contribution to the album, with a 3 minute short if amusing
added bonus to the song album. Its difficult and kinda stupid to review
and more compare this rate with others of its kind but the charm of the
guitar playing, bouncy and lightly comedic ala Shanghai Noon shows at least
there is a kind of charm in the music by Edelman, and Ed TV is bringing
with 'Streetwalkin' Ed' just that. It has an electric guitar and occasionally
it reminds me of some country music, but its fun for 3 minutes just of
your time. This of course doesn't justify a purchase of the song album,
because as score material its extremely thin, but at least as rental or
downloaded material, the short score track of Edelman proves he's still
got it, to give those comedies of the '80 now a charm of Ed in the '90.
