VA - Singles: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (2016) [Hi-Res]

Singles is the original soundtrack album to the 1992 film Singles, primarily focused on the ascendant Seattle grunge scene of the early 1990s. It also features contributions from Minneapolis' Paul Westerberg (his first solo material after the breakup of The Replacements), Chicago's The Smashing Pumpkins, and past Seattle artists Jimi Hendrix and The Lovemongers (Ann and Nancy Wilson of Heart, the latter of whom was the wife of the film's director Cameron Crowe at the time). It was released on June 30, 1992. The album has been certified two times platinum by the RIAA in the United States.

The soundtrack was reissued in a 2×CD and 2×LP edition on May 19, 2017, coincidentally one day after the death of Soundgarden frontman Chris Cornell, whose music is featured prominently on the soundtrack and who has a cameo in the film, although the release date had been announced in January.[4] The reissue features new mastering and a bonus disc of previously unreleased material, including rare Cornell recordings. It includes 18 bonus tracks in addition to the original 13-song soundtrack, as well as demos, instrumentals, new liner notes and track-by-track descriptions by Cameron Crowe, and live recordings from Paul Westerberg, Alice in Chains, and Mudhoney. Also included is “Touch Me I’m Dick” by Matt Dillon’s fictional band in the film, Citizen Dick, featuring Pearl Jam’s Eddie Vedder, Stone Gossard, and Jeff Ament. It marks the first commercial release of “Touch Me I’m Dick” as part of the soundtrack.[4]

Other songs used in the movie but not included in either edition of its soundtrack are: "Three Days" by Jane's Addiction, "Little Girl" by Muddy Waters, "Dig For Fire" by the Pixies, "Radio Song" by R.E.M., "Blue Train" by John Coltrane, "Family Affair" by Sly & The Family Stone, "She Sells Sanctuary" by The Cult, and "Jinx" by Tad.
