Fabulous! The theme is haunting, and I can't seem to hear enough of it. The music is wonderful, and it is great for any social gathering. iPod owners be warned However, I'm very disappointed to discover that I cannot get the CD to copy to my iPod. I loved the movie and the music. This is a pet peeve of mine - I buy the music, I should get to listen to it on whatever device I choose. Axe Rufus Wainwright, and it would be 5 stars I was surprised by how good the other songs were (you still have to like country music, though). This album is a mixture of the instrumental theme, which is incredibly beautiful and haunting, and some very solid country songs. There are only two songs that I don't like at all, and those are the two by Rufus Wainwright - one a cover of "King of the Road" (originally by Roger Miller). They are great demonstrations of him at his most nasal and whiny. It sounds like he is a French guy holding his nose and singing too slow. It's too bad, because they are good songs otherwise. I guess if you like him, you're golden; but I can't stand these versions. Fortunately, the rest of the disc is really good. Yes, it's one of the best albums I own Such quality all 'round. I listened to it over and over and over last year. Brokeback Mountain It arrived on time and in the condition advertised. The product is what I expected.
