Limited run Dolemite Is My Name OST vinyl LP out now!

A vinyl version of Scott Bomar's soundtrack for Eddie Murphy's Rudy Ray Moore biopic Dolemite Is My Name is momentarily available – don't sleep!

Dolemite is his name and rappin’ & tappin’ is his game! Eddie Murphy’s 15-year-old pet project about Rudy Ray Moore is absolutely one of the best feel good films in recent memory. Featuring music by Scott Bomar. The soundtrack is a loving homage to 1970s funk and Blaxploitation scores that sounds contemporary and fresh rather than just leaning on the past. It’s fun, reverential and funky as all hell. Bomar has an incredible feel for funk and soul and it absolutely shines here. The limited 180 gram vinyl edition features the full score plus tracks sung by Eddie Murphy, Bobby Rush, Craig Robinson. You can listen to the full score on Spotify right here courtesy of Milan Records. You can mail order a copy of the LP from Scott Bomar's Electraphonic site – which come signed by Scott.  Listen to a couple of tracks below.
