LISTEN TO THE SHOW

Yes, AC tried to play a youtube video. [I'm sorry.] It was purely due to the fact that the Popul Vuh soundtrack to Werner Herzog's short film about the Swiss ski-jumper Steiner (Great Ecstasy of Sculptor Steiner) isn't available anywhere as far as I can tell. If anyone knows if the soundtrack has ever been released on anything, please let us know!! It's one of the greatest, most dynamic soundtracks in relation to the imagery I've ever heard. Been looking for info on it for ages.... There's a reuse of the imagery in a music video made by LA band Health which doesn't have the same impact as the film (with Herzog's uber-tense hero-development of Steiner) but I suppose it's flattering!
