From Dusk Til Dawn From Dusk Till Dawn Soundtrack CD

Original score written by Graeme Revell. All dialogue written by Quentin Tarantino.
From Dusk Till Dawn follows the pattern of previous Quentin Tarantino-related movie soundtracks by concentrating on a particular musical theme -- in this case, Tex-Mex-flavored blues-rock -- and punctuating it with dialogue from the film. However, the From Dusk Till Dawn soundtrack doesn't work quite as well as the ones for Pulp Fiction and Reservoir Dogs, mainly because the majority of the music is made-to-order and familiar, not resurrected oldies or forgotten genre gems. There are some good songs -- the presence of Stevie Ray Vaughan, the Blasters, and ZZ Top guarantees that -- but the majority of the album is dull, and that includes the excerpts of dialogue. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
Like his acclaimed PULP FICTION soundtrack, Quentin Tarantino's eclectic fingerprints are all over the appealing collection of tunes from his celluloid colaboration with Robert Rodriguez, the horrorsploitation epic, FROM DUSK TILL DAWN. With brief, witty movie dialogue interspersed throughout, the songs here are a combination of new and classic (though often lesser-known) efforts by Jimmy Vaughan, ZZ Top, The Blasters, Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble, and other purveyors of rollicking roots rock and heartfelt blues.
Highlights include Jimmy Vaughan's inspired "Dengue Woman Blues," brother Stevie Ray's always pleasing "Willie The Wimp," The Blasters' "Dark Night" and ZZ Top's "She's Just Killing Me." A surprising solid and cohesive soundtrack, FROM DUSK TILL DAWN was made to be a good, old-fashioned party record.
