Nice mood, good music, still lacking...

"I, as much as any other reviewer here, love Neil Young and loved the Jarmusch picture it comes from, but an entire album? Its great, musically, until the poetry read by Johnny Depp, and stulifying scenes inexplicably lifted wholesale from the film (did we really need an aural rehash of Iggy Pop and Billy Bob Thornton's scene??). Young's haunted, dusky main theme completed the movie in a way no other artist could have..the soundtrack just could've used some more of the intellectual eroticism the movie had. Main theme-5 stars."

"the attraction to this soundtrack may have alot to do with the fact that i really loved the movie. its just like someone elses dream you got caught in the middle of for a couple hours and the soundtrack is well done. neal youngs garage-band guitar made somehow drifty like the ocean, lyical sound-bites and bits of poetry. watch the movie."

"I THOUGHT IT WAS AN EXCELLENT SOUNDTRACK THAT WAS PURE NEIL AT HIS BEST. ANY FAN WOULD APPRECIATE THIS EXPLOSION OF GUITAR SOUNDS THAT TICKLE THE MIND WITH SUSPENCE. I WANTED THE COLLECTORS EDIT TO CHECK OUT THE PICTURES INCLUDED."
