Jack Johnson’s record label, Brushfire, is releasing the soundtrack for a film titled A Brokedown Melody. Although I am not all that interested in a surfing film, the soundtrack seems to actually contain a few interesting tracks. For starters, it includes an unreleased solo track by Eddie Vedder, titled “Goodbye.” Other artists featured range from The Beta Band and Kings Of Convenience to Doug Martsch (Built To Spill)… and… Jack Johnson. You haven’t lived until you’ve heard Eddie Vedder rock out to a ukulele. I guess he traded in his flannel for a Hawaiian shirt. Listen for yourself by checking out the links below.
