This edition features 16 songs, from various country artists, including all the original songs preformed in the Oscar nominated film of the same title starring Jeff Bridges. I was amazed at how good Jeff Bridges and Colin Farrell sounded together when signing “Fallin’ & Flyin”. Who knew Jeff Bridges could sing? After watching the movie credits and really enjoying the music both old and new from the motion picture Crazy Heart. Anyone who appreciates genuine country music will enjoy this soundtrack. The theme song “Weary Heart” by Ryan Bingham is beautiful; vocals and guitar are so soothing.Oscar nominated for “Best Song”, T Bone Burnett, 10-time Grammy Award winner, who co-produced the soundtrack along with guitarist/songwriter Stephen Bruton(who died after a long bout with cancer in 2009) seems to create collections of songs that compliment the film.
Real country music along with great lyrics and the array of talented artist make this a must listen to CD. Although Jeff Bridges (Bad Blake) sings many of the songs, he is joined by such great talents like Buck Owens, The Louvin Brothers and who can forget Waylon Jennings just to name a few.
