Great music as usual….Just came back from a fishing trip up to the Sierra’s and Laurel Canyon Radio provided us and outstanding soundtrack for 3 days….plus the fishin’ was pretty good!
Haven’t seen the movie but the soundtrack is a collection of crackin’ covers. Covering these classic tracks could have easily turned out bad but Jakob Dylan et al do a great job. In the heart of my summer playlist.
Agreed, as much as I was a little sceptical I enjoyed the OST, especially the colaboration with a certain Eric Clapton…
