Four Rooms (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) music by Combustible Edison and Esquivel
Four Rooms is a 1995 American anthology black comedy film co-written and co-directed by Allison Anders, Alexandre Rockwell, Robert Rodriguez, and Quentin Tarantino, loosely based on the adult short fiction writings of Roald Dahl. The story is set in the fictional Hotel Mon Signor in Los Angeles on New Year's Eve. Tim Roth plays Ted, the bellhop and main character in the frame story, whose first night on the job consists of four very different encounters with various hotel guests.
The soundtrack features a score composed and performed by contemporary lounge music band Combustible Edison, co-produced by Mark Mothersbaugh. Additional music is by Juan GarcĂa Esquivel.

Various Artists – Easy Rider (Music From The Soundtrack) - 1969
Easy Rider is the soundtrack to the cult classic 1969 film Easy Rider. The songs that make up the soundtrack were carefully selected to form a "musical commentary" within the film. The album of the soundtrack was released by ABC-Dunhill Records in August 1969. It peaked at #6 on the Billboard album charts in September of that year, and was certified gold in January 1970.
The songs on the soundtrack album are sequenced in the same order as they appear in the film, with the following differences:
"The Weight", as originally recorded by The Band for their 1968 debut album Music From Big Pink, was used in the film but could not be licensed for the soundtrack. To deal with this, ABC-Dunhill commissioned Smith, who recorded for the label at the time, to record a cover version of the song for the soundtrack album.
Two songs used in the film, Little Eva's "Let's Turkey Trot" and The Electric Flag's "Flash, Bam, Pow", were omitted from the soundtrack album.
1 Steppenwolf– The Pusher 5:50
2 Steppenwolf– Born To Be Wild 3:38
3 Smith – The Weight 4:34
4 The Byrds– Wasn't Born To Follow 2:04
5 The Holy Modal Rounders– If You Want To Be A Bird 2:36
6 The Fraternity Of Man– Don't Bogart Me (AKA Don't Bogart That Joint) 3:05
7 The Jimi Hendrix Experience– If Six Was Nine 5:35
8 The Electric Prunes– Kyrie Eleison/Mardi Gras (When The Saints) 4:00
9 Roger McGuinn– It's Alright Ma (I'm Only Bleeding) 3:40
10 Roger McGuinn– Ballad Of Easy Rider 2:15
