Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com
Quentin Tarantino's trash-talking original soundtrack is fuelled by a greasy Tex-Mex theme. Starting with the Blasters classic "Dark Night," this album rumbles like a gang of renegade vampire bikers through a sharp new one from ZZ Top ("She's Just Killing Me"), a classy Jimmy Vaughan blooze ("Dengue Woman Blues"), an outrageous vignette by Cheech Marin, a couple of vintage Stevie Ray sides, and some rockin' Tejano tornados from Tito Larriva. --Jeff Bateman

5.0 out of 5 stars Rough, Sexy, And Dark, August 18, 1999

By A Customer

From the rough songs of ZZ Top to the sexy sounds of Tito And Tarantula's "After Dark", this soundtrack has the same spirit as the film. "Dark Night" by The Blasters is a great opening for the film and the soundtrack. "Mexican Blackbird" by ZZ Top follows. Along with some blues tunes and an unexpected dialouge from Cheech Marin. The two score pieces fill the rest of the space. Great soundtrack for a night in an "off the wall cantina, man".

3.0 out of 5 stars An okay CD, August 29, 2000

By	Steve C. Yabut "Paclimer" (PA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I got this CD because I loved Robert Rodriguez's soundtrack for 'Desperado'. I like just about every song on that CD. I got this one because I like the opening title song and the barroom songs. I was hoping to be pleasantly surprised by the rest of the songs, but unfortunately I wasn't. The rest of the songs aren't bad, but they don't knock my socks off either. You also get Chet's speech, which is hilarious. The hidden track is the second part of his speech and should have been tagged on to the first part, which I find a bit annoying. Also, the barroom songs didn't seem as bright or peppy as they did in the DVD when I first heard them. This was disappointing. They sounded more studio produced then live. None-the-less, if you really liked certain songs from the movie and have to have them, I'd get this CD otherwise I might skip it.

4.0 out of 5 stars A great mix of western rock, December 31, 2000

By	A Kramer (st. pete, FL) - See all my reviews

I found the movie hilarious and entertaining, and the soundtrack is even better.I am a huge fan of the southwestern rock, and this CD is what I have been looking for. Chet's speech is one of the highlights of the album. There is one fault to the album, and that is the goofy song Texas funeral. It's just too damn weird. Besides that, the album is great.
