      I
      would
      assume)
     
     
      and
      T-Bone

      But
      hey,
      that’s...
      ten
      decent
      or
     
     
      better
      songs,
      most
      of
      which
      are
      brand
      new
      (orat
      least
     
     
      remixed
      so
      you
      don’t
      feel
      totally
      robbed).
      Soif
      you
     
     
      think
      the
      music
      on
      David
      Lynch
      movies
      is
      the
      coolest
     
     
      stuff
      on
      the
      planet,
      you'll
      love
      this.
      But
      if
      you’
      re
      just
     
     
      into
      R.E.M.
      or
      Elvis
      Costello,
      you
      can
      wait
      for
      the
     
     
      new
      albums,
      where
      these
      songs
      will
      probably
      resur-
     
     
      face.
      Soundtracks
      have
      a

      life

      and
      in
      general
     
     
      I
      think
      are
      useless.
      But
      this
      one
      seems...
      don’t
      you
     
     
      hate
      reviews
      where
      the
      guy
      won’t
      come
      out
      and
      say
      if
     
     
      it’s
      good
