As a former music journalist (for Creem and Rolling Stone among other periodicals), director Cameron Crowe has always put his heart and soul into the soundtracks of his flms. So, it's no wonder that the most ambitious of all his flms, Vanilla Sky, sported the most far-ranging and masterful of all of his scores. The flm itself was a waking dream, subject to various interpretations; the soundtrack, too, explored shifting moods and shades, but always maintaining the surreal tone and aesthetic of the flm, with a glittering line-up (R.E.M., Radiohead, Paul McCartney, Jeff Buckley, Bob Dylan) of artists. The result was breathless praise for the soundtrack (the New York Times called it ''a music masterpiece'') and an Academy Award nomination. It is, quite simply, one of the greatest ''mix-tapes'' a flm director has ever created (with some help from soundtrack Co-Producer Danny Bramson and Crowe's then-wife, Nancy Wilson of Heart); and, for its frst vinyl reissue since its initial release, we have created a custom gatefold cover for the 2-LP release and pressed up 1000 copies in ''blue cloud'' vinyl. A sublime listening and visual experience awaits.RECORD ONESide One1. R.E.M.-All the Right Friends2. Radiohead-Everything in Its Right Place3. Paul McCartney-Vanilla Sky4.
