Yes One Way or Another - apparently the song is about stalking (?)...

Body and Soul is indeed the 1940 version. I have grabbed both Joe tracks and those missing ones per previous discussion. So now do I have the full list of audio tracks? I don't like how the tracks are sequenced - by artist name. Ideally they should be listed as they are played in the movie.

FYI - Someone already attempted to put together soundtrack, but only 12 tracks are shown =>

Thanks for that. I finally got around to watching the movie last night. It sort of reminded me of “After Hours” starring Griffin Dunne what with all those night scenes. And all that smoking... Even the doctor was smoking!

Here are the updated .flac and .mp3 links. I think it deserves a good CD artwork. Enjoy.

Given that it's a Aki Kaurismäki film, it would be weird if people weren't smoking . I don't know if you noticed, but Kaurismäki even makes a cameo as a smoking sunglasses salesman outside a newsstand. Also, judging from the way the movie was filmed, its soundtrack, and the fashion, I wouldn't be surprised if it takes place during the late 1950s, when Doctors still recommended smoking to patients (at least in the United States). In all seriousness though, for those that haven't seen this film, I highly recommend it. It goes by real fast and has a really good soundtrack. I also never thought a plain hamburger and black coffee would make a good combo prior to watching this film.
