The soundtrack from Local Hero is definitely something for everyone who likes varied and anything but mainstream. Colourful it hits probably best. One can find rudimentary or in some detail all possible. Be the music that sounds a bit like pop, a little country, a little soulful, briefly uses Knopfler towards the end even the synthesizer that one might think, here Vangelis would have been at work, NEN Touch Shanty heard I somehow out. All very headstrong, but good and interesting mixed.
