Johnny Depp Dead Man ~ Music by Neil Young

Neil Young recorded the soundtrack by improvising (mostly on his electric guitar, with some acoustic guitar, piano and organ) as he watched the newly edited film alone in a recording studio. The soundtrack album consists of seven instrumental tracks by Young, with dialog excerpts from the film and Johnny Depp reading the poetry of William Blake interspersed between the music. ~William Blake~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The ancient tradition that the world will be consumed in fire at the end of six thousand years is true, as I have heard from Hell. The whole creation will be consumed and appear infinite and holy, whereas it now appears finite and corrupt. This will come to pass by an improvement of sensual enjoyment. If the doors of erception were cleansed, every thing would appear to man as it is, infinite.
