5.0 out of 5 stars Couldn't ask for better 15 Dec 2007
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is my favourite album of 2007 by a long shot. It's full of gorgeous acoustic tunes all accompanied by Eddie's wonderful baritone vocals with his keen sense of melody and lyrics. The album is quite short at only half an hour, but that means it doesn't outstay its welcome and leaves you wanting more.

Track highlights are 'Hard Sun' and 'Society' (ironically, the two tracks not actually written by Vedder), and the beautiful album-closer 'Guaranteed'. There isn't a huge mix of styles, but it does vary from haunting to more upbeat pop stuff.

If you like Pearl Jam you probably have already heard at least some of this album. The music isn't too much of a deviation from the acoustic stuff they have done ('All Or None', 'Around The Bend', 'Of The Girl') but it's a little skewed more towards Eddie's style ('Soon Forget'). If you appreciate good songwriting and want something beautiful, melancholy and acoustic to relax to, you can't do much better than this.

5.0 out of 5 stars Uplifting 3 Jan 2008
By C. Rowe
Format:Audio CD
...is a word over used when trying to describe good music, but it could not be more apt here.
I went to see the film and pretty quickly picked out Vedder's unmistakable vocal on top of what, at the time, seemed some largely inoffensive middle of the road folky rock music. However, having enjoyed the film I was given the soundtrack (this album) for Christmas and I have to say it is one of the best things I have heard for some time. The songs are well crafted and perfectly encapsulate the feelings of hope, independance and achievement associated with the film. In fact this is so good that only a couple of factors stop it from nudging into the "all time classic" territory: namely the length (33 mins) as some of the tracks are incidental music (Wolf, still brilliant) and others are very short, and also the fact that arguably the two standout tracks (Society & Big Hard Sun) were not penned by the man himself. Maybe that is nit-picking, but if he'd written the whole album it would have added to the resonance of the whole piece.

Anyway, buy/borrow this album and sit down over the next two cold & dark months with a drink and listen to this a few times (at 33 mnins it won't take long) and I promise you that songs like No Ceiling & Society will be emblazened in your memory for some time to come.

5.0 out of 5 stars Short & sweet 13 July 2008
By Sizzle
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
The beautiful soundtrack from the most beautiful of movies.

I have never known a soundtrack to be so empathetic with its subject.The melancholy, accoustic music perfectly reflects the sweet, innocent, yearning that the film carries so well.

As a cd in its own right, this is also a very good piece of work. At 33 minutes or so, it could be argued to be on the short side yet I would say that there is certainly no "fillers" in this cd & the beautiful guitar work is matched by Vedder's lovely baritone.

Soothing & mellow, this is great reflective, late night listening.

Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars How did a movie soundtrack end up being so good? 23 Nov 2008
Format:Audio CD
There are basically two types of movie soundtrack album. There are the ones where you get a song from the opening titles, a song from the closing titles and 10 tracks of incidental music or, alternately, the ones where a movie is set in a specific period and the sountrack is a "greatest hits" of that period.

This breaks the mold. Instead of 15 tracks of inoffensive incidental music designed not to detract from the movie (and hence, be pretty forgettable) someone had the ingenious idea of throwing Eddie Vedder, a guitar, a banjo and a mandolin into a recording studio and using the results.

The results are an album that stands up in its own right as a great record and a superb soundtrack. The simple chord sequences, evocative lyrics and Vedder's superb voice perfectly encapsulate the excitment and loneliness of the wilderness and the disillusioment that might lead someone to choose that over society.

Despite being better known for Pearl Jam's rock music, the standout tracks on this album are the simplest: those that use an arrangement of guitar/mandolin and Vedder's haunting delivery (Society, Rise, Long Nights).

If you're looking for something epic, this probably isn't the place, as each song clocks in at about 2 minutes. However, each short track is perfectly formed and results in a record that I would highly recommend.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great chill out Music 4 April 2010
By dappy
Format:Audio CD
After I watched the film 'Into the Wild' I really loved the music. One track in particular I really loved was Guaranteed and I hoped it would be included on the sound track album I wasn't disappointed. I also love the track 'Society' and 'Big Hard Sun.' What I like is the simple acoustic style of most of the songs. I also learnt to play some of the songs on my guitar which I was pleased about.

5.0 out of 5 stars great for the car 3 Sep 2009
By Neilzer
Format:MP3 Download|Amazon Verified Purchase
Stumbled across this film while channel hopping one night. The story is great and so is the music. Every track is meaningful and likeable on first listen. Brilliant find that just came out of nowhere. This is now one of my favourite albums. Its great for the car.
