The bluesy, depression-era inflected soundtrack for Michael Mann's "Public Enemies," which features tracks by Otis Taylor, Willie Johnson, Billie Holiday and a score by Eliot Goldenthal ("Heat," "Drugstore Cowboy" and an Academy Award win for the excellent "Frida" score) is due June 30 via Decca Records.
The soundtrack also features tracks by Diana Krall (a new version of the classic jazz standard, "Bye Bye Blackbird"), The Bruce Fowler Big Band and presumably what is a spirituals hymnal by Indian Bottom Association, Old Regular Baptists.

Thanks - sounds great. Really looking forward to the movie and the soundtrack.
Booooooooooooo!!!!!!!!! A movie named Public Enemies, and no new single from the Legendary Hip Hop group "Public Enemy"?
Not cool.
I've been looking for a decent review of this CD prior to its release, so cheers, that track they use on the Trailer for this movie sent chills down my spine... I'm a big fan of William Elliot Whitmore and the other Colorado based America scene acts, and this fits right in there...
hesir,
To TuesdayReaders - It's a DEPRESSION-ERA film. They didn't even have rap yet.
anyone know the opening song in the trailer? is it in that list?
did you listen to the song in this post?
It's the opening track on the CD Ten Million Slaves by Otis Taylor you can hear it in full on his myspace page...

I don't think anyone should ever try and find out cause it sounds awful. Maybe the Crystal Method? Techno rock trailer music is always the worst.
this movie and soundtrack is good, but it still doesnt come close the trying with TRANSFORMERS 2. but its a great runner up.
I enjoyed the film but the soundtrack, as good as it is, just isn't accurate for the time. I expected more from Mann in this respect. Considering the lengths he went to, filming on actual locations.
movie & soundtrack were both good. i really enjoyed watching it. music created a specific atmosphere of that movie, so i think the soundtrack is very ok.
Great movie!...what's the name of the track played when he entered the bank?
Ten Million Slaves is absolutely wonderful. First time I heard it in the movie, it took my breath away. I love the banjo!!
The movie was amazing! And the ten million song is nothing short of it either ... thank you so much. I didn't know what it was called till finding this post.
'the playlist' you are just a internet asshole. are you an only child, because you crave attention. music is opinion, my opinion is i would like to hear more of that song. whats the point in u writing these pointless posts. no1 cares what you think, get over it.
Many thaaaaaaanks ... i was searching for these soundtracks ... the movie is Awesome .. i LOVE Johnny Depp :)
I agree. putting rap/ hip hop and such is a bad idea for that movie. it wouldn't make the movie interesting if you know where i'm getting at. awesome movie and otis taylor is naazzztay
