And one more movie song - from the little-seen but quite excellent thriller "Blink" (1994 - Michael Apted...great rental), there are three memorable songs by Chicago based Celtic rockers "The Drovers", who appear in the film as well. Each of them is good in its own way, though my fave is the opener "The Boys and the Babies", energetic trad-Celtic beat mixed with an angsty-punk vocal, and a rollicking trombone to carry it along. And it didn't hurt to have a beautiful, blind (well, not really) Madeleine Stowe playing violin in the band. Ar.
