Various Artists - Crazy Heart: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack [CD]
- Jewel Case
Four-time Academy Award® nominee Jeff Bridges stars as the richly comic, semi-tragic romantic anti-hero Bad Blake, a broken-down, hard-living country music singer who’s had way too many marriages, far too many years on the road and one too many drinks way too many times. And yet, Bad can’t help but reach for salvation with the help of Jean (Maggie Gyllenhaal), a journalist who discovers the real man behind the musician. As he struggles down the road of redemption, Bad learns the hard way just how tough life can be on one man’s crazy heart.
Soundtrack produced by T Bone Burnett (10x Grammy® Award Winner and Producer of the multi-platinum soundtracks Walk The Line and O Brother, Where Art Thou?). Burnett’s songs co-written and performed by alt-country legends Buddy Miller, Stephen Bruton and Bob Neuwirth.
Includes original music performed by the film stars Jeff Bridges and Colin Farrell and Texas-bred troubadour Ryan Bingham, co-writer (with Burnett) and performer of the standout closing song The Weary Kind (Theme From Crazy Heart) which draws upon Bad Blake’s emotional journey as an alcoholic seeking sobriety.
