Twister

Performer: Original Soundtrack
Distributor: WEA (Distributor)

Notes: Producers include: Bruce Fairbairn, Rusted Root, Tim Bomba, Tori Amos, Alex Van Halen. Edward & Alex Van Halen's "Respect The Wind" was nominated for a 1997 Grammy Award for Best Rock Instrumental Performance. The soundtrack to this 1996 summer blockbuster cuts across genre lines with the same random force as a tornado slicing through a town. Bluegrass fiddler Alison Krauss and metal headbangers Van Halen are among those who contribute previously unreleased tracks; the list also includes Belly, k.d. lang, The Red Hot Chili Peppers and former Fleetwood Maccers Buckinghan and Nicks. Tori Amos provides an alternate version of the BOYS FOR PELE track "Talula," with tornado-inspired lyrics.

Entertainment Weekly (5/24/96, p.97) - "...TWISTER careers across the land, never settling anywhere. Ballads from k.d. Lang and Lisa Loeb bump into a boisterous Van Halen chant and a perky cut from Shania Twain. The mix makes for a herky-jerky set..." - Rating: B- Q (8/96, p.128) - 2 Stars (out of 5) - "...Setting the tone are the two tracks specially written by Van Halen,...Soul Asylum['s]...poppy `Miss This'...[and] Buckingham & Nicks [with] `Twisted'--a truly dire Stevie Nicks plodder which not even Linday Buckinghams's pop genius can rescue..."
