SINGLES Soundtrack Vol 1 + Vol 2
4x LP 180 Gram Color Vinyl Set
NEW SEALED
SHIPS IN A STURDY ALBUM MAILER WITH ADDTIONAL PADDING ON BOTH SIDES OF THE SLEEVE AND REINFORCED CORNERS!
VOL 1:
The Singles soundtrack was released in early 1992, a full three months before the film opened, and it was an instant hit, eventually selling over two million copies. It's the perfect snapshot of Grunge, Seattle at a certain place and time. Cameron Crow made Singles a full year before Grunge became one of the last cultural phenomenons of pre-internet times. The soundtrack is phenomenal, featuring every Seattle band that was hot at the time (except Nirvana).
Alice In Chains delivers 'Would?' a dark gothic grunger about former Mother Love Bone singer Andrew Wood (who died of a drug overdose). The spectre of Andrew Wood looms large on this soundtrack; his band's fingerprints can be heard throughout the score. Their epic 'Chloe Dancer/Crown Of Thorns' closes out side A, and both Pearl Jam and Soundgarden (featuring former MLB members) turn in some of their best songs. Paul Westerberg, fresh from breaking up the incredible The Replacements, has two solo songs, including the mini hit 'Dyslexic Heart'. Also featured are The Screaming Trees, The Smashing Pumpkins, Jimi Hendrix and The Lovemongers, and let us not forget the incomparable Mudhoney with the barbed 'Overblown'.
Undoubtedly one of the greatest soundtracks ever released.

VOL 2:
A soundtrack so iconic that its legacy continues to this day - this second volume was previously included as a bonus CD only in the 25th anniversary reissue of the album, now available on Vinyl for the first time. Featuring original and rarely heard recordings by Chris Cornell, Alice in Chains, Paul Westerberg and of course ... Citizen Dick's infamous track "Touch Me, I'm Dick."
This album features live recordings, score tracks, as well as recordings of Chris Cornell (performing as Matt Dylon's character Cliff Poncier) including an early recording of "Spoon Man."
Featuring liner notes by Writer and Director Cameron Crowe, and a screenprinted Citizen Dick flyer, this release is just as essential as the first volume.
