Interesting looking soundtrack. Was expecting more of a selection of different artists but Christopher Young has done some excellent scores in the past. Most notable however is the contribution from Depp and his friend Patti Smith. That I was not expecting.
Cheers,
Rory

Enjoy!
I thought the music backing was really moody and wonderful – so is this mostly Christopher Young? Some of the instrumental stuff reminded me a liitle of INXS – saxaphone and mouth organ and other instruments made it very atmospheric and memorable. Thanks!
here’s the song
tell me that on a blind test you won’t think otis redding!
thx kara & rory
