Alan Hawkshaw – Movie Images (2001) Hi-Res

Unlike his iconic funk and groove works of the 1970s (dominated by the Hammond organ), here Hawkshaw emerges as a mature symphonic composer. The music is built entirely on powerful orchestral arrangements, expansive brass sections, and deep drama.

"Movie Images" clearly demonstrates why Alan Hawkshaw has remained in demand in the industry for four decades: the album perfectly captures the Hollywood orchestral soundtrack standards of the late 1990s and early 2000s.

One of the most vibrant, soaring, and upbeat tracks on this album is "Alan Hawkshaw – The Feel-Good Factor," which vividly conveys the composer's mastery of orchestral dynamics and a bright, soaring mood.
