Lock, Stock & Two Smoking Barrels

STYLE:
FORMAT:
Vinyl record
DESCRIPTION:
2x12" Tracks & Dialogue from The Motion Picture featuring Ocean Colour Scene. James Brown, Stones Roses & Many More
This soundtrack to the edgy Tarantino-esque British film Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels consists largely of vintage punk rock (the Stooges' "I Wanna Be Your Dog"), R&B (James Brown's "The Boss" and "The Payback"), and reggae (Junior Murvin's "Police and Thieves"), along with a few other oddities, such as Dusty Springfield's rendition of "Spooky," a song that was a hit for the Classics IV in the U.S. The songs are interspersed with obscenity-laced snippets of dialogue from the film that indicate its sarcastic, low-life nature. There's nothing wrong with the music, but minus the film the album is just another random collection of tracks, not cohering as do, say, the soundtracks to Quentin Tarantino's Pulp Fiction, Trainspotting, and The Full Monty (the films to which this one's been compared).

Warning! Deleting this artist may remove other artists and scrobbles from your library - please handle this with caution!

The term Various Artists is used in the recording industry to designate releases featuring contributions from multiple performers. It commonly appears on compilation albums or collaborative recordings where no single artist attribution applies. On digital platforms such as Last.fm, tracks may be listed under this designation when individual artist information is missing or incomplete in metadata, resulting in automatic grouping under the generic label.
In some cases, singles credited to Various Artists are issued for charitable purposes, particularly when performers collaborate under a collective project name. Examples include Band Aid with the song "Do They Know It’s Christmas?" and USA for Africa with "We Are the World".
Various Artists is also used as a performance alias by German musician Torsten Pröfrock, founder of the DIN label. In addition to this name, he has recorded under several other aliases, including Dynamo, Erosion, Resilent, and Traktor. He has collaborated with Robert Henke and has been a member of Monolake since 2004.
The name was also used by a short-lived punk band formed in Bristol by brothers Jonjo and Robin Key, originally from Birmingham. Other members were involved simultaneously in Art Objects, which later evolved into The Blue Aeroplanes; the Key brothers also contributed as songwriters and participants in that project. After the group disbanded, the brothers formed Either / Or.
The designation Various Artists is also commonly applied to musical theater soundtracks, reflecting recordings that feature multiple cast members or ensemble performances within a single track.
