Seth Macfarlane Renaissance Man
My parents were OK with me watching a lot of things when I was a kid, because they were around to explain," MacFarlane said. "They swore, and they were very clear about what was right and wrong, but they didn't view bad language as the worst offense in the world. My mother would stub her toe and let loose a string of obscenities that you wouldn't believe." He’s not exactly a newbie, either, when it comes to winning over a live audience" wrote The Hollywood Reporter, referring to the 2009 performance at London's Royal Albert Hall. The trade paper goes on to report the Club Nokia performance will be recorded in high definition and multi track audio for screenings and streaming to support “Music Is Better Than Words” release.
Once again, MacFarlane teamed up with composer, arranger and producer Joel McNeely and a 52-piece orchestra recorded at the iconic Abbey Road Studios, featuring a bevy of London’s premier players. During these sessions, McNeely took over Studio 2, made famous by The Beatles. Among the musicians in the orchestra were jazz legend Peter Erskine on the drums and former Frank Sinatra bassist Chuck Berghofer McNeely most recently composed the music for MacFarlane’s A Million Ways to Die in the West McNeely and MacFarlane wrote the original song “A Million Ways to Die” for the movie, which is performed by country music superstar Alan Jackson
As we can see with A Million Ways to Die in the West , when MacFarlane decides to tackle a genre, he doesn’t skimp on detail. We’d love to see him perfect the standard Regency romance formula We’re talking castles with moats, heroines in corsets and ballgowns, two-faced dukes, and hilarious (but secretly steamy) sex scenes. We’ve seen enough sci-fi in both Family Guy (with their hilarious Star Wars parodies) and American Dad to know that MacFarlane lacks neither the imagination nor the creativity to execute a seriously out-there story. Considering all the time-travel ringers he’s put Stewie and Brian through, we’re thinking a comic remake of The Time Machine is in order.
