While the Coens were writing the screenplay they had Kenny Rogers' \"Just Dropped In (to See What Condition My Condition Was in)\", the Gipsy Kings' cover of \"Hotel California\", and several Creedence Clearwater Revival songs in mind. They asked T-Bone Burnett (who would later work with the Coens on O Brother, Where Art Thou? and Inside Llewyn Davis) to pick songs for the soundtrack of the film. They knew that they wanted different genres of music from different times but, as Joel remembers, \"T-Bone even came up with some far-out Henry Mancini and Yma Sumac.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBurnett was able to secure songs by Kenny Rogers and the Gipsy Kings and also added tracks by Captain Beefheart, Moondog and Bob Dylan's \"The Man in Me\". However, he had a tough time securing the rights to Townes Van Zandt's cover of the Rolling Stones' \"Dead Flowers\", which plays over the film's closing credits. Former Stones manager Allen Klein owned the rights to the song and wanted $150,000 for it. Burnett convinced Klein to watch an early cut of the film and remembers, \"It got to the part where the Dude says, 'I hate the fuckin' Eagles, man!' Klein stands up and says, 'That's it, you can have the song!' That was beautiful.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"Burnett was going to be credited on the film as \"Music Supervisor\", but asked his credit to be \"Music Archivist\" because he \"hated the notion of being a supervisor; I wouldn't want anyone to think of me as management\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor Joel, \"the original music, as with other elements of the movie, had to echo the retro sounds of the Sixties and early Seventies\". \"Music defines each character. For example, \"Tumbling Tumbleweeds\" by Bob Nolan was chosen for the Stranger at the time the Coens wrote the screenplay, as was \"Lujon\" by Henry Mancini for Jackie Treehorn. \"The German nihilists are accompanied by techno-pop and Jeff Bridges by Creedence. So there's a musical signature for each of them\", remarked Ethan in an interview. The character Uli Kunkel was in the German electronic band Autobahn, an homage to the band Kraftwerk. The album cover of their record Nagelbett (bed of nails) is a parody of the Kraftwerk album cover for The Man-Machine and the group name Autobahn shares the name of a Kraftwerk song and album. In the lyrics the phrase \"We believe in nothing\" is repeated with electronic distortion. This is a reference to Autobahn's nihilism in the film.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTRACKLIST:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA1 Bob Dylan – The Man In Me\u003cbr\u003eA2 Captain Beefheart – Her Eyes Are A Blue Million Miles\u003cbr\u003eA3 Elvis Costello – My Mood Swings\u003cbr\u003eA4 Yma Sumac – Ataypura\u003cbr\u003eA5 Piero Piccioni – Traffic Boom\u003cbr\u003eA6 Nina Simone – I Got It Bad And That Ain't Good\u003cbr\u003eA7 Moondog With Orchestra – Stamping Ground\u003cbr\u003eB1 Kenny Rogers \u0026amp; The First Edition – Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My \u003cbr\u003eB2 Meredith Monk – Walking Song\u003cbr\u003eB3 Erich Wolfgang Korngold – \"Glück Das Mir Verblieb\" From The Opera \"Die Tote \u003cbr\u003eB4 Henry Mancini – Lujon\u003cbr\u003eB5 Gipsy Kings – Hotel California\u003cbr\u003eB6 Carter Burwell – Wie Glauben\u003cbr\u003eB7 Townes Van Zandt – Dead Flowers\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lithium Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47157411676418,"sku":null,"price":40.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0673\/9161\/9330\/files\/Various_TheBigLebowski-OriginalMotionPictureSoundtrack.webp?v=1766252243","url":"https:\/\/lithiumrecords.ca\/products\/various-the-big-lebowski-original-motion-picture-soundtrack-new-vinyl-back-in-black-edition-180-gram","provider":"Lithium Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
