There are liner notes, track information, and a note from Edgar Wright on the sleeves. The record also includes a digital download of the soundtrack, including Run the Jewels' Chase Me. There are two black colored records in the album with illustrated sleeves. The Baby Driver LP comes with an amazing Gatefold fully illustrated LP cardboard sleeve with artwork by Rory Kurtz. Of course, how can you forget The Doors' Alabama Song in The World's End where everyone is pub-crawling the golden mile, drunk off of beer and the past? Needless to say, Edgar Wright knows his music and uses it as an important part in every film, which brings us to Baby Driver, which I believe is Wright's first musical film. Then along came Scott Pilgrim, which gave Beck and Nigel Godrich an outlet to be creative with their impressive indie rock creations such as Garbage Truck. In Hot Fuzz, we were delighted with Goody Two Shoes by Adam Ant and Solid Gold Easy Action by T.Rex. With Shaun of the Dead, he made me look at Queen's Don't Stop Me Now differently, as everyone was beating zombies with pool cues to the rhythm of the song and the pub lights would flash on and off to the beat of the music.
Baby driver soundtrack reviews full#
As long as Edgar Wright has been on the scene, his films have been full of amazing music that cover most genres and decades. Whether it be John Williams' score to Star Wars or the rock and funk classics of Quentin Tarantino's Pulp Fiction, we can all agree that music really takes the visuals of our favorite movies and adds a big emotional tone to every scene. They add an extra layer of entertainment and can even become a central character to the film, such as with Edgar Wright's Baby Driver.
Soundtracks are an integral part of any movie.
