Description: Essays on film soundtracks composed of popular music (rather than the composed film score) both in relation to the films, and circulating separately on record.

Review Quotes: "Soundtrack Available represents a great leap forward in the analysis of film soundtracks. It is a smart, lively book that moves nicely between the detailed analysis of individual cases and broader, theoretical issues. The editors are to be commended for a collection which covers so many historical periods and national cinemas, and for staking out exciting new directions for scholarship. At the same time, this is a compelling, refreshingly jargon-free read for the non-specialist interested in film, music, or media."--Will Straw, McGill University
