Reservoir Dogs & Pulp Fiction Soundtracks Live at the Civic

0

Tami Neilson, Laughton Kora, Milan Borich, Booga Beazley team up for a wild night, bringing the soundtracks of Pulp Fiction & Reservoir Dogs to life.

Quentin Tarantino’s blockbuster arrival in the early 1990s marked a stunning rebirth of cinematic cool steeped in the classiest of Top 40 nostalgia.

With its soundtrack programmed by fictional DJ K-Billy for his Super Sounds of the Seventies radio show, Reservoir Dogs offset its on-screen uber-violence with the smooth grooves of Little Green Bag by The George Baker Selection, Hooked on a Feeling by Blue Swede, Stuck in the Middle with You by Stealers Wheel, Coconut by Harry Nilsson and more.
 
Two years later, the frantic surf guitar of Dick Dale’s Misirlou kick-started the unchallenged cinematic event of the decade. For Pulp Fiction, Tarantino curated a playlist of sweet rockin’ soul with sinister undertones. Dusty Springfield’s Son of a Preacher Man, Urge Overkill’s cover of Neil Diamond’s Girl, You’ll Be a Woman Soon and Chuck Berry’s You Never Can Tell helped make Pulp Fiction a surprise hit album in 1994, and the coolest retro ’60s soundtrack of all time.

Now, for one night only, join a dream quartet of New Zealand’s finest singers to relive some of the wickedest music on celluloid.
