レビュー (Amazon)The 1960s were an often schizoid time for film soundtracks, which occasionally attempted to combine rock acts of the day with the "Swingin' Sounds" that three decades later became both fodder for
Austin Powers and inspiration for a cultish subgenre dubbed Exotica. Welcome to a couple of prime examples of the genre, neatly compiled on a single disc. Anchored by the Byrds' throwaway title track, the remainder of
Don't Make Waves is a showcase for the cheezoid-genius composing and arranging talents of Vic Mizzy (perhaps best known for his loopy, inventive themes for
The Addams Family and
Green Acres), an improbably bubbly soundscape of twangin' guitars, bumping horns, sexy organ fills, and hipper-than-thou woodwinds. John Williams (credited tellingly here as Johnny) had something of a head start in the Exotica derby, having been an integral part of the Mancini team that set the swingin' standards earlier in the decade. The title track here goes to the Pennypipers, but the rest is a sunny star turn for the budding talents of Williams, whose romps here are lush and, unusual for the genre, dignified. Attention "Golden Throats" fans: Natalie Wood's key-challenged warbling on the folksy, borderline-psychedelic "The Sun Is Grey" may evoke fond memories of The Shaggs.
