The Golden Globe-winning soundtrack to the new movie, Crazy Heart, was released Tuesday (Jan. 19) on New West Records.
The film's theme song, "The Weary Kind," written by Ryan
Bingham and T Bone Burnett, won a Golden Globe award on Sunday (Jan.

a Golden Globe for best performance by an actor in a dramatic movie for his leading role as Bad Blake, a faded country star.
The soundtrack also features music by Buck Owens, the
Louvin Brothers, Lightnin' Hopkins, Waylon Jennings, Townes
Van Zandt and Sam Phillips. A deluxe edition of the soundtrack will be released on Feb. 2.
