 ‎– Midnight Cowboy (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) Label: United Artists Format: , LP Genre: ,  Style: ,  A well-above-average soundtrack, both for the contributions of top film scorer  and some interesting odds and ends of late-'60s rock. The  soundtrack is most famous for 's hit single cover of 's "Everybody's Talkin'," present in both the familiar version and a shorter one that is substantially different, particularly in its use of harmonica (which is not present at all on the single). 's five compositions are suitably atmospheric, the standout being the "Midnight Cowboy" theme, with its memorable languid, melancholy melody and -style harmonica; it should have been a hit single ( had one with a less interesting cover of the tune). The album is filled out by rock from , , and , which is mostly period music suitable for background party scenes, though 's "He Quit Me" was written by a then-unknown . Check out 's seven-minute "Old Man Willow," though, an enchanting slice of whimsical and surreal late-1960s psychedelia with trippy organ and female vocals.  is mostly known for briefly serving as 's backup band in the early 1970s, but this is a lot closer to  than the Plastic Ono Band. -AllMusic Review by Richie Unterberger Tracklist A1–*Everybody's Talkin'2:30A2–Joe Buck Rides Again3:46A3–A Famous Myth3:22A4–Fun City3:52A5–He Quit Me2:46A6–Jungle Gym At The Zoo2:15B1–Midnight Cowboy2:34B2–Old Man Willow7:03B3–Florida Fantasy2:08B4–Tears And Joys2:29B5–Science Fiction1:57B6–*Everybody's Talkin'1:54
