    Released in 1983 to accompany Martin Scorsese’s offbeat film The King of Comedy, the soundtrack is a time capsule of musical artistry from that era. It features a lineup of legendary artists like B.B. King, Ray Charles, Van Morrison, and Talking Heads, each contributing tracks that feel more like character studies than background music. The Pretenders kick things off with “Back on the Chain Gang,” setting a bittersweet tone that mirrors the film’s themes of fame and delusion. One standout is Van Morrison’s “Wonderful Remark,” which made its debut on this album and has since become a cult favorite. The album was produced by Robbie Robertson of The Band, who also contributed his own track, “Between Trains,” adding a layer of introspective cool. What makes this soundtrack special isn’t just the big names, it’s how each song feels handpicked to reflect the emotional undercurrents of the movie, from desperation to hope to irony. This collection of songs are a mood board for a story about chasing dreams in all the wrong ways.
