NEW VINYL LP ON WEA 2003

180 GRAM VINYL.

Quentin Tarantino has always armed himself with an arsenal of eclectic songs for his pop-culture-filled films, and the soundtrack to KILL BILL VOL. 1 is no exception. To kick off the first part of his ultra-violent kung fu revenge extravaganza, Tarantino offers up Nancy Sinatra’s brooding “Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down).” The tone swiftly changes to upbeat rockabilly with the Charlie Feathers ditty “That Certain Female,” and the stylistic shifts keeping coming with Luis Bacalov’s spry spaghetti Western tune “The Grand Duel – (Parte Prima)” and Bernard Hermann’s creepy “Twisted Nerve.”
