Van Morrison soundtrack selection compilation
Stereogum has a teaser for this post in which the site lists a bunch of movies and asks you to guess what their musical connector is. I thought it would be that they all use "Gimme Shelter." Turns out they all have Van Morrison songs in them. Now those tunes have been rounded up and will be released as Van Morrison at the Movies: The Soundtrack Hits on February 13th on Manhattan/EMI. Call it an excercise in pointless repackaging of old material, sure, but any album that starts of with Them's original version of "Gloria" isn't a complete waste of time. Other gems include a previously-unreleased live version of "Moon Dance" from the American Werewolf in London soundtrack and a live cover of "Comfortably Numb" from this year's The Departed. Full track list after the jump...01. "Gloria" (performed by Them) - The Outsiders
02. "Baby, Please Don'''t Go" (performed by Them) - Wild At Heart
03. "Jackie Wilson Said (I'''m In Heaven When You Smile)" - Pope Of Greenwich Village
04. "Domino" (live) - Clean & Sober
05. "Moondance" (live)* - An American Werewolf In London
06. "Queen Of The Slipstream - Extreme Close-Up
07. "Wild Night" - Thelma & Louise
08. "Caravan" (live) - The Last Waltz
09. "Wonderful Remark - King Of Comedy
10. "Brown Eyed Girl" - Born On The Fourth Of July
11. "Days Like This" - As Good As It Gets
12. "Into The Mystic" (live) - Patch Adams
13. "Hungry For Your Love" - An Officer And A Gentleman
