Best. Audio. Book. Music. Ever.

At the behest of one of my staff, and now much to my delight, I am currently enjoying Stephen King's Lisey's Story on audio. It's a great performance, by actress Mare Winningham, and it has the best music. I don't normally go for the musical accompaniment with the audio books, it's usually amateurish, especially with mysteries. Clumsy goosing whenever a gun comes out-yeah, I get it. I have been listening for 8 hours now I don't need your synthesizers to tell me the plot is thickening. And the sex sax? PleeeSE. But Lisey's Story starts out with the aucoustic version of Ryan Adams' "When the Stars Go Blue". Now that's some choice music. I guess it's good to be Stephen King.
