I was watching a few youtube clips of this the other night with my wife while we were talking about actors who can sing (Spacey is one of her favourite actors). I have a CD/DVD combination titled Aces Back To Back (2004 release) that I would highly recommend to anyone interested.
ReviewIf you are Bobby Darin fan like I am you will find the OST tracks very nice - as u can see by my ratings.
Spacey does a very good job although, "If I Were A Carpenter" is forced & artificial (no pun intended).
Now, if you've seen the motion picture, it will detract (as it did for me) from the overall representation of Walden Robert Cassotto aka Bobby Darin short life's story.
Kevin found himself doing a project that he had dreamed about doing for many years and to put the cherry on top he found himself in the 'most famous recording studio in the world' with professional musicians and people behind the recording/mixing board who were some of the best in the recording industry.
The result was self-indulgent and more about Spacey then Bobby.
Again, kudo's to Mr. Spacey however, the bitter-sweet story of one of the greatest entertainer's of a generation would have been better served with a more objective Exec. Producer/director and screenwriter(s).
As I mentioned earlier if you haven't seen the film - you will have no problems what's so ever enjoying this OST.
