Crumb - Soundtrack

"(Craig) is the only musician I've ever heard these days who improves on these old tunes he steals from. There's a number of these "ragtime fingerpickers" around, but they're all very precise and genteel in their approach, and their music doesn't amount to much even if they do manage to play all the correct notes. Craig pounds it out with an incredibly strong sense of rhythm and the right feeling. It's been great to be able to spotlight him and Boeddinghaus - two of my favorite living musicians."

- Terry Zwigoff, San Francisco 1995

Ghost World - Soundtrack

As he did with Crumb, director Terry Zwigoff has created a soundtrack as eclectic and riveting as his movie subjects. The sounds of early jazz and blues play a crucial role in the events of Ghost World, and the music heard here is some of the best ever recorded.
