Carlito's Way [Original Soundtrack]
(1993)
more music like this
by
Various Artists
The soundtrack to Brian DePalma's crime drama Carlito's Way is appropriately claustrophobic and menacing, featuring a selection of incidental music and pop songs from the early '70s. It doesn't really work as an individual entity, but the album has a lot of interesting, provocative music. Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide

It's also quite skimpy at 12 songs, but there's nary a weak selection in the bunch, making for a decent impulse purchase. Make no mistake -- this disc is hardly as definitive as ...
