Inhalt: A new song from Robbie Robertson will sit alongside classics by Fats Domino, Jackie Gleason and Marty Robbins on the soundtrack for Martin Scorsese's next film, The Irishman. The film opens in theaters today, November 1st, before hitting Netflix November 27th, while the soundtrack will arrive November 8th. Robertson wrote the score for The Irishman, although only his theme song for the film will appear on the soundtrack. The track has a captivating aura that's somewhat reminiscent of a Spaghetti Western song, with Robertson lacing an ominous acoustic guitar strum over rumbling drums while a high-and-lonesome harmonica trades lead melody duty with a mournful cello. "This is probably the tenth film I've worked on with Marty, and every time we do it, it's a whole new experience," Robertson said. "The music score for The Irishman was an unusual feat. We were trying to discover a sound, a mood, a feel, that could work, over the many decades that this story takes place. Marty was drawn to a theme I wrote that brought a unique, timeless quality to this movie." Scorsese and music supervisor Randall Poster compiled the rest of the film's soundtrack. While the film notably spans several decades, the soundtrack mostly features songs from the late Forties and Fifties, such as the Five Satins' doo-wop hit "In the Still of the Night," Marty Robbins and Ray Connie's "A White sport Coat (and a Pink Carnation)," Pérez Prado's "Qué Rico el Mambo" and Jackie Gleason's "Melancholy Serenade."
