Working in the increasingly marginalized adult-contemporary-for-smart-people niche (think Cowboy Junkies, Tori Amos, Timbuk3, et al.), Over the Rhine create a musical landscape that is all floating echoed guitars and sincere thoughtful vocals over rhythms that modulate between the vaguely funky and staidly straightforward. Vocalist Karin Berquist and keyboardist-guitarist-songwriter Linford Detweiler impressively mirror the emptiness of modern life with the vacuous Films for Radio. There are elements of country, soul, and 4AD here, but Over the Rhine steadfastly refused to commit to any one form or genre in particular, instead opting for an aural smorgasbord that while vapid is oddly satisfying in its absolute blandness. While one might be better off with the Walkabouts' latest, Over the Rhine's Films for Radio is truly modern music that is just what it appears to be--shallow. --Mike Johnson

Amazon.com essential recording
This is a great series of recordings. Leonard Slatkin has generally chosen the right balance of music for the composers used in the series (with terrific cover art from Thomas Hart Benton). This disc is devoted to Copland's film music. The treat here is a version of The Heiress Suite reconstructed by Arnold Freed. Copland's talent for writing for films rested in his ability to identify and maintain themes, at the same time not slacking on the transitional details. This belongs in any Copland collection. --Paul CookCustomer Reviews:

Aaron Copland: the Norman Rockwell of film scoring.......2004-06-14
Great recording of definitive American film music.......2004-04-08
How nice it is then to be able to go back to the source, and have rendered in so superb a fashion as it is by Slatkin & the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra. Slatkin, as usual, upholds his reputation as one of the leading interpreters of American music.
This CD contains the premier recording of "The Heiress Suite," which is a delight to listen to, and of course the fairly well-known "Red Pony" music. Is their a more quintessential piece of "Western" music than the "Walk to the Bunkhouse?" How does a jewish boy from Brooklyn nail it on the head so perfectly, anyway?
Other selections include "Music for Movies," a collection of bits & pieces from an assortment of Copland-scored movies that Copland arranged in 1943, and "Music for Radio," an earlier composition that isn't really "movie music," but fits well with the rest of the compositions on this CD.
Instead of wasting your time on movie soundtracks that are nothing more than just derivitave hack jobs, listen to music by a composer who had truly mastered his craft.

Buy ANY other album by this great band........2005-11-15
If you've never heard Over the Rhine: Films for Radio is a decent pop album that may catch your ear after several listens. The songwriting is interesting and fun and the vocals are "quite nice." It's good pop music for listening to while you're doing other things.
If you're familiar with Over the Rhine: You can buy, but you will be a sad tomato. After listening to their other beautifully simple, gorgeous, warm albums, this one comes off as sterile, over-produced, and mediocre. The standout songs, "The World Can Wait," and "Goodbye (This is not Goodbye)" are ones I remember from live shows years ago.
I think that the label is really at fault here, and there was pressure to be more "marketable." If you can, judge this album separately from the band. Over the Rhine generally produces beautiful, poetic, memorable music.
one of the best.......2005-10-14
Films for the Radio.......2004-12-11
1. The World Can Wait: Awesome instrumentals, the lyrics are great, and Karin's voice is really strong. 5/5
2. If Nothing Else: Brilliant all the way around. "I'm so tired in the morning." 5/5
3. Give Me Strength: Cool, with kind of an eerie sound. "Hoped that I would never find all the sh*t I left behind." 5/5
4. Fairpoint Diary: More like what you find on their other albums. "I grew up south from here in towns they tore apart for coal, as if to excavate the darkest secrets of my soul." 5/5
5. I Radio Heaven: You'll find this one rolling around in your head all day. "The truth is I bleed you when these frequencies cut me." 4/5
6. Little Blue River/In The Garden: Something that's simply pleasant to listen to. 4/5
7. Goodbye (This Is Not Goodbye): Really strong piano-gorgeous. 5/5
8. Whatever You Say: Gets ya movin'. "In this dream, there are two hands untangling the knots in my throat, but they won't go away."
9. The Body Is A Stairway Of Skin: Really weird. Powerful imagery, if not extremely odd. "The body is a book of matches...Ohio Blue Tip Strike Anywhere." 3/5
10. Moth: "Same old question without words." 5/5
11. When I Go: Slow and mournful but attractive all the same. "It makes a difference when you walk through a room with that worrisome smile, road weary perfume." 4/5
The Best Music the World Isn't Listening to.......2003-03-31
This music group definitely received much more promotion than usual with "Films for Radio." The music on this release is slightly--slightly--more commercial-sounding than their previous work. The songs are more upbeat than their "Good Dog, Bad Dog" release from the mid 1990s--which many consider the standard "Over the Rhine" sound.I know I judge their other projects against "Good Dog, Bad Dog" but that doesn't mean I don't like "Films for Radio" any less than GDBD. I love it in a different way.
Bergquist belts out a powerful note right from the beginning of FFR with the song "The World Can Wait." Other songs like "I Radio Heaven", "Whatever You Say" and "If Nothing Else" provide catchy phrases I hum to myself over and over sometimes. "Give Me Strength" is the most rockin' number on FFR and sounds the least like the Over the Rhine I have listened to over the past ten years. I still like it, but it's different, and I would be disappointed if every Over the Rhine project sounded too similar to the other things they have done.
I have introduced people to the "Over the Rhine" sound through the years and they all fall in love. "I wish I had known about them sooner," they say. If this music group plays near you, go out of your way and catch them. OTR's live performances are excellent.
I have only positve things to say about Over the Rhine. Don't let my gushing turn you off. I admit I'm addicted, so you've been warned. It's the best music the world isn't listening to. Try them. They may not be as well known as they deserve, but you will enjoy OTR as your little secret. Let Karen Berquist's voice bewitch you. Let Linford Detweiler's lyrics entrance you. You won't regret it.
Over the Rhine in identity crisis..........2003-03-22
While its heart is in the right place, 'Films for Radio' seems to suffer from an identity crisis. Yes, there are some really spectacular songs on the album, but the whole disc doesn't hold together as well as the band's earlier efforts. It feels more like a collection of overproduced singles than one coherent artistic statement. The satisfying payoff that you usually get at the end of one of Over the Rhine's records just isn't there with this CD.
Of course, a 'bad' Over the Rhine CD will always beat a 'good' CD by some of the yokels out there trying to write convincing art-pop music. I'd just suggest that if you're new to Over the Rhine, start with 'Good Dog Bad Dog' or their always-wonderful 'Patience.' Save 'Films' for later.

Customer Reviews:
One of the best Library/70s soundtrack CDs I've heard.......2006-03-10
Most compilations of "film funk" and such are too cheesy or too boring. Not this one. I Gres brings Morriconesque melodies and solid grooves with shades of Jean Jacques Perry and jazz fusion. If you like funky 70s soundtracks and you like Ennio Morricone then by all means check this out.
