Part of the Acoustic Sounds 40 Series - Releasing 40 Titles to Celebrate the 40th Anniversary of Acoustic Sounds!

Released in 1985, the Paris, Texas soundtrack by Ry Cooder blends slide guitar and minimalist music to reflect the film's emotional depth. The iconic track "Paris, Texas" helped the album earn critical acclaim, including a BAFTA for Best Film Music. Cooder's score perfectly captured the film's themes of isolation and redemption.

It's been more than four decades since the film was awarded the 1984 Palme d'Or at its acclaimed Cannes Film Festival debut. The film's mystifying personae and desolate neo-western vistas have lost none of their original intrigue, thanks in large part to Ry Cooder's iconic soundtrack — a defining showpiece by a slide guitar savant.

Recorded over three days, his music plays a pivotal mood-setting role, providing a plangent underpinning for German director Wim Wenders' postcard renderings of Americana.
