I still have my copy of Billy and the Boingers Bootleg, and I believe it has both the record and the parody of the Joshua Tree album cover on the back.
Mal: Well said. Wasn't that well said, Zoe? Zoe: Had a kind poetry to it, sir.

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
In the realm of comics/music crossovers I've got the original ep by David J. for This Vicious Cabaret (V for Vendetta) and the soundtrack by Victor Banana for Clowes' Velvet Hand in an Iron Glove. The Value Ape jingle alone was worth the price.
"Value Ape, Gorilla savings..."

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
Btw, did you see that I thought that William Gibson's new protagonist in Spook Country reminded me of you?
I did not! Linky?
ETA: It is sad I went immediately to comic books. This is a character in a novel, right? I'll have to read it.
EATA: Now I see why :)

I have that!
and the soundtrack by Victor Banana for Clowes' Velvet Hand in an Iron Glove.
I regret never picking that up. But isn't it "Like a Velvet Glove Cast in Iron"? t /pedant

I'm sure it must be because even as I was typing it out I thought, "Scola is going to correct me about this. Or Tommyrot. Or maybe that pedant, Jon."

It's not that great really, despite my fondness for Value Ape. Mostly cheesy synths - which are not inappropriate for that comic.
I could post it on Buffistarawk if people want but half of the fun is just owning the object itself.
I do have a number of fairly odd indie lo-fi soundtracks, many of which are good for One Cool Song. I love the theme for El Frenetico and Go Girl. The Teenage Tupelo soundtrack is really a fantastic slab of instro rock by Impala. (How cool are they? They wrote a song titled "Don't Ride With Arnold Friend.") And, of course, the Pervirella soundtrack LP is on gorgeous pink swirly vinyl.

The Punk Bug that bit me oh so long ago was the Repo Man soundtrack. Still haven't seen the movie all the way through, but man did I love that soundtrack.

Tony Wilson has died. I didn't know until today that he was my birthday twin.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Repo Man & Suburbia makes a great double feature. You can go all day and add in Liquid Sky and the shrimp theme carries over.
