Will this soundtrack do for Ethiopian composer and musician Mulatu Astatke what Titanic did for Celine Dion? Well...maybe on a much, much smaller scale. Astatke's circle of Western fans has already expanded thanks to the compilation Ethiopiques, Vol. 4: Ethio Jazz & Musique Instrumentale, 1969-¬1974, and Jim Jarmusch's movie puts his hypnotic instrumentals to great use. This isn't surprising, since Jarmusch is a filmmaker with a natural affinity for music and its use onscreen. Here, a three-minute excerpt from stoner-rock legend Sleep's titanic "Dopesmoker" only offers a sample of the song (it actually lasts an hour) but it still sounds awesome, especially stuck between an Astatke track and Gabriel Fauré's "Requiem, Op. 48 (Pie Jesu)." Garage vets the Greenhornes and Holly Golightly contribute tracks together and separately, while indie-rockers Brian Jonestown Massacre's "Not If You Were the Last Dandy on Earth" (an answer song to the Dandy Warhols' "Not If You Were the Last Junkie on Earth") sounds as bilious now as it did in 1997. This is a rare case of a soundtrack that pulls together a broad range of artists yet remains oddly consistent--no doubt because it was assembled by a director with vision instead of a focus group. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

- Reviewed in the United States on January 25, 2017I love this soundtrack. It is very unique and different. Check it out & you probably will not be disappointed if you like even 1 of the tracks listed...it all flows together very well. I didn't even like the movie all that much but I adored the music and still do!
- Reviewed in the United States on April 9, 2014I barely tolerated the movie, but I paused the DVD at the end so I could write down a name from the soundtrack credits: Mulatu Astatke. So, thank you, Mr. Jarmusch, for introducing me to this cool Ethiopian composer. I would have paid for those songs alone; the rest were a bonus.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 11, 2017Love this compilation. The jazz is why I bought this CD. It rocks!!
- Reviewed in the United States on December 28, 2014I love the melodic, laid-back tunes of Ethiopian music. The movie was fantastic but the music was the icing on the cake. This is one of favorite CDs. I highly recommend it.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 6, 2005I didn't like this movie very much, but the wonderful soundtrack definitely left an impression on me. The Ethiopian music is very jazzy and cool; there's a little opera and Marvin Gaye mixed in as well; and my favorite is the Holly Golightly track (she sounds exactly like Nancy Sinatra, whose catalog I encourage you to explore as well).
- Reviewed in the United States on October 3, 2016Please get this. It's varied and quirky, deep and fun. Hard to get tired of.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 10, 2017I enjoyed this soundtrack as I did the movie
- Reviewed in the United States on March 2, 2006Some of the most pleasing music was new to me and the introduction was welcome. I had only passing acquaintance with Holly Golightly as an example. Unlike a lot of soundtracks this one hangs together and creates a consistent mood. No clunkers.

Really enjoyed the CD - it was in perfect condition and brought back a lot of memories of the film I had seen several years ago.
The speed with which it arrived was truly amazing.
Thanks once again.
