Reviews Customer Reviews for Pat Garrett And Billy The Kid BOB DYLAN SOUNDTRACK ALBUM Rating: This is a Bob Dylan soundtrack album. I already did a review for the previous edition--1989. Check it out. Same album--new edition.
Customer Reviews for Pat Garrett And Billy The Kid Cd Relive The Chase...Dylan Style Rating: If you have seen the film Directed by Sam Peckinpah, or if you love Dylan, or even if you just love Westerns and the thematic musical scores from them, this album is for you. You can relive the chase as Pat Garrett hounds Billy the Kid from start to finish across the old west.
There are 10 tracks(I have an older edition from Sony,but this appears to have the same cover art), music by Bob Dylan, accompanied by Booker T on Bass, Carl Fortina on Harmonium, and Russ Kunkle on Tambourine among other various artists, that capture the story. Four variations of Billy's theme-one recorded in Mexico City with Terry Paul-tell his story.And even though it's several variations on the theme, I could still listen to it over and over. There is some great foot stompin music "Turkey Chase" and it also includes "Knockin on Heaven's Door", the sad lament of knowing the end is near.For a complete list, see buyer's info at Pat Garrett & Billy the Kid(the older edition).
My old CD sounds pretty good. It is distinctive and clear. It's a great album to pass the time with at home or in the car.I always take it with me on long drives. Also if you have not seen this film and you are a western or Dylan fan you might want to check it out also.It's a fabulous western and Dylan has a supporting role as "Alias", Billy's friend, and he is quite good.
relax and enjoy.....Laurie
