I watched Crazy Heart .. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crazy_Heart ..the other night and heard a little of this song in it .. Sam Philips ~ Reflecting Light .. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c1p2CIdas-Y ...I looked for it afterwards to hear it in full and really like it.
I probably wouldn't have heard it elsewhere ...anyone else heard a song in a film that has had you hunting it down?

The only music from a film that I spent ages tracking down was from Ringo and His Golden Pistol. I spent years trying to find it on record or CD; it eventually cropped up on a compilation of Western themes, about 15 years after I saw the film. There have been many records that have been on my wants list for years. Nina Hagen's Universal Radio was there the longest, but I was after a specific version. It took 12 years before I found it.

That's a heck of a long time to look for any piece of music,Amos....you deserved to find them...I just looked for the soundtrack to the film on the the net and then narrowed it down....didn't take me anywhere near 12 years ..... <yikes> ..that's the wonder of the web for you... <ok> :D

I got stuck on this the first time I saw the film. It was in obscurity for me until Youtube came along and suddenly, a couple of years ago, there it was ...... I'd thought it was "Brown Owl .... " rather than "Foul Owl ..... " - not the best line but still .... from (probably) one-hit-wonders Boomer and Travis ....

I love the scene it comes from as well ...

Is that John Philips' daughter? He of the Mamas and the Papas and she of 'Wilson Philips', together with one of the Beach Boy's offspring.

The one you're thinking of from Wilson Philips is called Chynna Phillips.
