Quentin Tarantino's Once upon a Time in... Hollywood [Original Motion Picture Soundtrack]
Quentin Tarantino always digs deep inside record crates whenever he assembles a soundtrack, but there's a crucial difference with 2019's Once Upon a Time in Hollywood: here, the soundtrack replicates the humming background noise of the AM radio station KHJ, which is playing constantly throughout the film. Known as Boss Radio during the '60s, KHJ is a real station and their archives provided raw source material for Tarantino's 1969 fantasy -- play lists that he augmented with personal favorites, golden oldies, vintage commercials, and replicated DJ chatter. Nearly every cut on the soundtrack comes out of a radio somewhere in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, with the notable exceptions of Paul Revere & the Raiders' "Good Thing" and a new "Quentin Tarantino Edit" of Vanilla Fudge's "You Keep Me Hangin' On," which either pump out of a personal stereo or are non-diegetic. Not every pivotal song from the film is here; notably, neither "Out of Time" by the Rolling Stones nor the Royal Guard
