Looking at the music style of the whole movie, it is basically the folk songs of the 1970s. The so-called folk songs of the 1970s have gradually deviated from the one-man-one-guitar model of the 1960s, and banding has become more and more standard. And only country singers still continue the solo solo model.
The Bad, played by Bridges, belongs to the famous singer of that age. The folk songs of the 70s did not decline with the rise of early heavy metal, gorgeous rock and middle and late punk, but even though the folk songs have become bands, and The orchestration and melody became fashionable, and the more fashionable gorgeous rock and metal were firmly suppressed. Therefore, folk songs still have a lot of listeners in relatively conservative rural areas, and it has been the same up to now.
Maybe you still remember the brisk but slightly lonely song in "Forrest Gump" when Forrest Gump ran against the background of golden wheat fields: "Looking out at the road rushing under my wheels/ Looking back at the years gone by like so many summer fields/In sixty-five I was seventeen and running up one-o-one.... "This is "Running on Empty" sung by the folk star Jackson Brown in the 70s Now it seems that this song is a summary of the entire cultural wave of the 70s. As described in the documentary "The History of Rock and Roll", this song serves as the closing song of the episode of "Lively Rock 70s." Rock, fame, money, beauties, wine, private jets, rich wealth, the idealism of the 60s suddenly disappeared, everyone suddenly became busy and impetuous, Running on empty.
Going back to this movie, Bad’s brilliance should be in the middle and late 70s, and Tom should be on tour in the 80s, listening to those songs in the movie, all are standard and standard with electronic ballads, and each The song that should be made into a solo guitar version is very simple. These Old Schools are not fancy, but the most American, even the most southern, you can even hear the soul of Lynryd Skynyrd. Lynyrd Skynyrd made these songs heavier and added more solos, and the rest are almost the same. This is the same thread, just like the inheritance thread of many musical styles. This is one of the reasons why I am so happy and like this movie.
If you like the original soundtrack of this movie, you can listen to Lynyrd Skynyrd's album "Twenty", which is almost 100% typical of the same style, but emphasizes the sound and some tips. Listen to the original sound, then listen to this one, you will laugh out loud.
