Withnail & I

One of my absolute favorite films (Top 10, probably) Withnail & I (German title, Withnail & I), Bruce Robinson's tremendously funny 1987 film about two unemployed actors in London and their mistaken holiday. Starring the brilliant Richard E. Grant as Withnail, Paul McGann as "I" (actual character name Marwood, though it's not mentioned in the film or credits) and Richard Griffiths as raving homosexual Monty. Also with Ralph Brown, nearly stealing the show as deranged drug dealer Danny. Ralph was also in Wayne's World 2 as Del Preston, a character very similar to his Danny character from Withnail.

I recently purchased the R2 3-disc DVD of the movie. Included was a cd of the score. The original soundtrack featured both the score and the other songs featured in the film (the Jimi Hendrix tracks, The Beatles, King Curtis, etc.), so I ripped my CD of the score and tracked down the rest of the songs featured on the soundtrack.
