This is the original soundtrack of the popular TV series 'Peaky Blinders' containing music from seasons 1-5. The album is produced by Universal and released in 2019. It is a box set containing three vinyl LPs with a gatefold cover.

Condition is "Unsealed - Never Played".

Music is often used to heighten a sense of drama on TV but in Peaky Blinders, it has a slightly different function. The soundtrack is a window into the mind of Tommy – a tortured ex-soldier with a sensitive side who appears to be suffering from PTSD after fighting in the trenches during World War One.

“We’re very much driven by the idea that the commercial music we use is what’s inside Tommy’s head. With some shows, the music is used to drive the editorial on, but we try not to do that in Peaky Blinders”

Amelia Hartley is Head of Music at production company Endemol and has been music supervisor on Peaky Blinders since it first aired on BBC Two. For each series, she works with directors, producers and directors to curate its distinctive soundtrack. (She is also the music supervisor on Black Mirror, Charlie Brooker’s dystopian drama.)

The show’s opening sequence is set to Nick Cave’s track Red Right Hand – an eerie track about a sinister, shadowy figure in a “dusty black coat”. Hartley says the song was chosen by Otto Bathurst, who directed the show’s first few episodes, and set the musical tone for the series.
