レビュー (Amazon)
The updated Dead Man Walking: Legacy Edition enhances the original soundtrack to Tim Robbins's Oscar-winning 1995 movie, including a bonus DVD and a newly recorded bonus track, the gripping "Dead Man," from Pearl Jam's Eddie Vedder. Dead Man Walking was a moving and somber examination of capital punishment, based on Sister Helen Prejean's book of the same name. At the filmmaker's request, well-known activist artists like Bruce Springsteen, Johnny Cash, and Michelle Shocked contributed original songs inspired by the subject matter. The included bonus DVD documents a 1998 concert--hosted by Tim Robbins and benefiting Sister Helen and Murder Victim Families for Reconciliation--which brought together many of the artists who had contributed to the original soundtrack including Eddie Vedder, Lyle Lovett, and Steve Earle. The performances are uniformly impassioned: Steve Earle recreates his stark portrait of a death row guard's story in "Ellis Unit 1" and teams with Lyle Lovett to cover Townes Van Zandt's "Lungs."

Even in a concert whose subject is capital punishment, moments of levity find their way into the proceedings. Robbins shares an amusing list of protest song titles that didn't make the cut for the soundtrack and Vedder entertains the crowd with his story of delivering the filmmakers a song called "Dead Man Walking," only to learn that he had been pre-empted by Springsteen's Oscar-nominated title track. Ani Difranco's jittery energy seems a little out of place, but the closing set by Vedder and Pearl Jam bandmate Jeff Ament, joined by Doors drummer John Densmore and Rahat Fateh Ali Kahn (son to famed Pakistani vocalist Nusrat Fateh Ali Kahn), ends the evening on a fittingly restrained note. --Ben Heege
