Sunday, 2 June 2013 Case Histories soundtrack - series 2
There are a lot of things I like about Kate Atkinson's Jackson Brodie books. I love the way she writes about the sad important things: life and death and family and loss (subjects made for a country music soundtrack). I love that in Started Early, Took My Dog Jackson has turned 50. Listen to this: "His definition of elderly had changed as he himself had moved nearer to the event horizon of death." What an absolutely brilliant metaphor.
And I love the way she tells you what music Jackson is listening to.
That's translated into brilliant soundtracks for the TV adaptations. Two years ago I compiled a list for Case Histories series 1, mainly because I wanted the information and no-one else had done it. It was fairly easy as iplayer listed the songs for each episode.
This time round, the information on the BBC website was woeful. You'd think it might cross their mind that people would be interested! But I finally tracked down the information thanks to an anonymous comment on my blog. Thank you, anonymous.
With thanks also to: The Case Histories production company, Ruby Films, who posted the info on Twitter. And Tellyspotting, who picked it up.
And no thanks to the BBC, who posted nothing on iplayer and did not reply to my queries.
TRACKLIST: EPISODE 1 Original score by John Keane The Ransom - Madison Violet Since You Went Away - Kris Delmhorst Answer - Sarah McLachlan When You Walk On - Eliza Gilkyson
TRACKLIST: EPISODE 2 In The Hearts Of Men - First Aid Kit Car Wheels On A Gravel Road - Lucinda Williams Dynamite - Taio Cruz Only Girl (In The World) - Rihanna Price Tag - Jessie J Umbrella - Rihanna Staring Man - Cowboy Junkies Ooh Baby Baby - The Miracles We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together - Taylor Swift Hardly Speaking A Word - Lori McKenna Where Did Our Love Go? -Diana Ross and the Supremes Slip Of The Tongue - Mary Gaultier Swallows Me Whole - Lori McKenna Roses At The End Of Time - Eliza Gilkyson When You Walk On - Eliza Gilkyson
TRACKLIST: EPISODE 3 Brats - Liars Blue - Lucinda Williams Holding - Old Apparatus Three Chords And The Truth - Lynn Miles
Incidentally, the official Kate Atkinson website (managed by her publisher) has a section called Jackson's Playlists but the playlists for series 1 are broken links and those for series 2 not up yet. But it might be worth keeping an eye on.
