This eclectic amalgam of jazz, pop and blues standards not only suits the film's haunting love story perfectly, it also delivers as an ambient and moody song-cycle that stands up on its own.

Delightful surprises abound here. Sting's inspired delivery of three well-worn jazz ballads is evidence of the former Police-man's penchant for re-ineterpreting smokey, bar-room material. Don Henley checks in with a strong live version of the Johnny Mercer/Harold Arlen standard, "Come Rain Or Come Shine." Rounded out with some instrumental jazz selections, plus one contribution each from The Palladinos and the film's star, Oscar winner Nicholas Cage, the LEAVING LAS VEGAS soundtrack is a riveting, whiskey-soaked listening experience.

Out of print in the U.S.! Original soundtrack to director Mike Figgis' critically acclaimed 1995 drama that Nicolas Cage won the Best Actor Oscar for. The album scored by Figgis (a keyboardist & trumpeter as well), topped Billboard's Jazz chart at the time. Included are covers of five standards, three of which feature vocals by Sting, one by Don Henley and one performed by the Palladinos. While not as dark as the subject matter of the film, the 25 tracks have a distinctive somber sound that no fan of soundtracks or Sting will want left out of their collection.

Original score composed by Mike Figgis.

Includes liner notes by Mike Figgis.
