    Speaking of movie soundtracks...

    Last night I gave command of the remote control to the girlfriend and had her stop on one of the HBO channels when I heard Clinic's "Harmony". The movie was Laurel Canyon which I never heard of. Can't really comment on the movie itself too much because we missed the first half but the premise is a recent Harvard med grad and his equally accomplished girlfriend move in with his mother temporarily, who is a record producer. It seems like it's kind of a chick flick, but not overtly so. I'll have to watch it from the beginning one of these days.

    But it's the music in this film that I find interesting. Caught bits of Mercury Rev, Sparklehorse, T Rex, Butthole Surfers, etc. In the closing credits I saw Mark Linkous (of Sparklehorse) wrote the music for the fictious band that is recording an album during the film.

    Looks like a good soundtrack.

    NP: Sparklehorse - It's A Wonderful Life
    Whatta great album to wind down the weekend with. In fact, I think I'll get off the computer and kill the CD then pour a tasty beverage and throw the LP on the big system and chill in the sweet spot now

    Another movie that had a pretty good soundtrack was LOVE AND A .45.. I know at least "Turn it On" by the Flaming Lips and "Who was In My Room Last Night" by the Butthole Surfers was in the soundtrack...

    Vanilla Sky has a nice-looking soundtrack, but I haven't seen that yet.


    I miss my sweet spot.

    I miss listening to vinyl without BUZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

    anyone check out the "Cold Mountain" soundtrack yet?

    I picked it up a few weeks ago. I'm having the same reaction to this as I did with the "Brother Where art Though?" soundtrack. At times it's a bit too outside-the-box for my taste, like the acapella choir type stuff. However I am liking several tracks off "Cold Mountain", like the Alison Krauss & a couple of the Jack White tunes.
    The movie itself is still on my rental wishlist, just need some free time.

    Speaking of "Vanilla Sky" I think that Macca track is pretty cool.
