FULL EPISODES OF SOUNDTRACKER CAN ONLY BE FOUND EXCLUSIVELY ON PATREON!
Lots and lots of movies have soundtracks. Some are classics. Some are bad. But the majority fall somewhere in between. This podcast is going to take a look at all of them (or, as many as I can). Every week I'll be covering a different movie that had an original motion picture soundtrack, and then digging into the album. One part film discussion, one part music discussion, the Soundtracker podcast is here to help you navigate the wide world of movies and music. In each episode, myself and a guest discuss the movie and its soundtrack, rate each one, give you our picks for the best songs on the soundtrack, and suggest additional recommendations for what to watch or listen to in relation to whatever we're covering. So join me, as I look back at an era that's largely a thing of the past, and maybe you'll find a new favorite film or song along the way. New episodes every Friday. Theme Song provided by Howell Dawdy of Howell Dawdy's Fast Track https://soundcloud.com/howelldawdysfasttrack. Edited by Ross Reilly (@4_5_and_7).

Episode 31: Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story (with Kaleb Horton and Alan Siegel of The Ringer)
Today on Soundtracker I'm joined by Kaleb Horton (@kalebhorton) and Alan Siegel (@AlanSiegelLA) to talk about WALK HARD : THE DEWEY COX STORY, the only biopic you ever need to see. In this episode we discuss why it did poorly at the box office, how above and beyond it went with so many details in both the film and the soundtrack, why there should never be another biopic made after this one, the amazing soundtrack, and so much more. Unlike ca-caine, you definitely want part of this shit, so give it a listen.
