Product Description The soundtrack from Tarantino's hit movie - this album was mostly produced and orchestrated by RZA from the Wu Tang Clan. Includes songs from Nancy Sinatra, Isaac Hayes and Bernard Herrmann. .co.uk Soundtracks have always been an integral part of Quentin Tarantino's films, sometimes playing as big a role as the actors, and the soundtrack to his kung-fu exploitation flick Kill Bill Vol. 1 is no exception. Who can forget the marvellous ear-splitting use of Stealers Wheel's "Stuck in the Middle with You" in Reservoir Dogs, or Dusty Springfield's sublime "Son of a Preacher Man" in Pulp Fiction? Tarantino is the executive producer for the Kill Bill Vol. 1 soundtrack and considering his penchant for the wilfully obscure and talent for dusting off old gems, it's not surprising this overtly eclectic collection makes fascinating listening. Along with the jarring--if, thankfully, few--dialogue excerpts, comes delightful gems such as Santa Esmeralda's masterful "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood". There's the slide guitar-fuelled rockabilly cool of Charlie Feathers' "That Certain Female", Spaghetti Western atmospherics from Luis Bacalov, and Wu Tang Clan rapper RZA belting out "Ode to Oren". Not for the faint eared then, but despite breaking every continuity rule in the book, it makes for marvellous listening. --Christopher Barrett

This is me at my most...Masochistic!!
Everyone who knows Tarantino and his films knows that he always accompanies his masterpieces with an amazing selection of songs. They always seem so perfectly chosen with such precision. Reservoir Dogs, amazing soundtrack. Pulp Fiction, amazing soundtrack. Jackie Brown, amazing soundtrack (you get the picture). Kill Bill is no exception to this pattern as I think it's the most brilliant of his soundtracks. Every song is so well chosen and when you step back and look at it they're sometimes so odd but fit perfect like Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood, by Santa Esmerelda, which is a disco cover of a Nina Simone song?? It's so crazy and you think it would work but does! Only Tarantino could do it!

... a phase of buying the soundtracks to all my favourite tarantino films
I had a phase of buying the soundtracks to all my favourite tarantino films. This is probably the weakest in terms of the score itself but still a very strong record and good listening.I paid £13.78 on Amazon which is about average for this record according to other sources. The code is 9362-48570-1 if anyone wants to verify the edition.There is additional artwork / production details and song lyrics where applicable inside, as per images.

Enter the Atmosphere
This is a black or white piece of music. You either like it or you don't. And that's because it is so new and fresh and still looking to set its roots in popular acceptance. It's the Tarantino way of creating ambience. It's not a new style of music, nor is it a reinvention of the wheel. It's just a fresh way of assembling various gems from underrated and overlooked types of music, reinvigorating them by applying them onto a super-cool outtake, complementing them by pitching them against each other in order to bring out their hidden qualities... and there you have it: a soundtrack that echoes Tarantino from the strike of the first note. Cool and refreshing!

A fair selection of music from the film - though I might have liked inclusion of one more song that was played by the female, Japanese pop group! The CD, together with Vol. II, is a good reminder of the atmosphere of the film.
