You all play alot of "sneaking around" music.
Yous trying to promote nefarious behavior, or what?
Nefarious...that's a funny word when you say it.

Isn't this music just too dreamy? (paraphrasing "Hester")
Chills..
Pure tonal magic!
Oh my, this just gave me an enormous thrill.
New shoes! New shoes! :o)

Favourite song echoing across our lake in Muskoka Ontario!
I was addicted to the original TV series and this soundtrack. Still have it in my collection. Just soooo good.

Clever how the recording engineer lifted out Tom Waits' vocals from this track.
Spooks me every time I hear it.

Great sound, each track of this cd.

Very evocative, even after all these years I saw the visuals in my mind from the very first notes. Hadn’t realised that the music had made such impact on me.

I actually own this CD, own it! Picked it up in college when the first movie came out. Very cool soundtrack. I think I am going to throw this on my iphone and give it a good listen again.

I really admire David Lynch, even though at the end I feel like I've been frog-marched through a sewer.
He's kind of a Diane Arbus of cinema ....
Note hand-grenade.

When we meet again, it won't be me.
I first heard this soundtrack when we hijacked my mom's minivan and drove to San Francisco to see Peter Gabriel. I had brought a prissy cheerleader, and my sister had brought a Russian punk rocker physicist named Yorg. Mercifully after a bit of protest about the Skinny Puppy CD he had on, he changed course and put this disc in.
Best name EVER, IMHO....!
God I ve mellow written all over me now. Can I have a dash Miles after this?
The owls are not what they seem.

An absolutely fabulous, cool, sexy piece of music. Am clicking my fingers here at my desk, glad to be part of this experience. Go, daddio, go!

I saw "Blue Velvet" with a girlfriend in London. We felt like we'd been mugged and soiled with garbage when we walked out into the summer sunshine. This loud obnxious Brit was barking in laughter at his crestfallen friends about the film's brilliant send-up of the American Way of Life. I wanted to punch him and his snotty, better-than-you attitude.
But then I saw the movie again and was amazed at how right he'd been. Lynch knows how to unsettle and disturb. I don't much of Diane Arbus's work but yes that photo has the same effect. Imagine if that kid had been holding a loaded gun: you get the feeling that would've been Diane's last shot.
Saw a double feature - Eraser Head AND Blue Velvet at Cinema Village in NY. 1987 ish. I had already seen EraserHead so I had some idea what to expect. My girlfriend was flabbergasted. Ok, I was too...
Mr Lynch took questions between shows. Answered everything, disclosed nothing. Not sure he knew himself.

This show set an entire new standard of what was possible on TV.
A standard not even attempted by anyone else for years.

Alas, no leads there on the piece of background music..... Perhaps some awesome studio musicians who deserve more credit!

Lynch says that there will be a new version of Twin Peaks in about 1.5 years. Good times.
and after the dance...

Random1, I love you. RP, I love you, too.
Diane, 7:30 am, February twenty-fourth. Entering town of Twin Peaks. Five miles south of the Canadian border, twelve miles west of the state line. Never seen so many trees in my life. As W.C. Fields would say, I'd rather be here than Philadelphia. It's fifty-four degrees on a slightly overcast day. Weatherman said rain. If you could get paid that kind of money for being wrong sixty percent of the time it'd beat working. Mileage is 79,345, gauge is on reserve, I'm riding on fumes here, I've got to tank up when I get into town. Remind me to tell you how much that is. Lunch was $6.31 at the Lamplighter Inn. That's on Highway Two near Lewis Fork. That was a tuna fish sandwich on whole wheat, a slice of cherry pie and a cup of coffee. Damn good food. Diane, if you ever get up this way, that cherry pie is worth a stop.

I'm walking down a street, its drizzling, its cold, I spot a red light, I investigate, its a downstairs club, I enter , smoke fills the air, I find a table, a bar girl walks toward me in a black satin split skirt, red lipstick... need I go on..?

Some of that xylophone, or whatever it is, sounds like the Windows XP sound blip when you unplug a USB device. 
Yowza! The vibraphone does these little left-right trilly things that're absolutely wonderful through earbuds!

As a fan of the series, I reckon that each episode is a political and/or social allegory. I couldn't make sense of it as a teen, but as a more politically-conscious adult the allegories fair jumped out at me. Be seeing you.. :)

Man, this is both hip and cool. We like it.
Excellent. I bought this soundtrack when it came out, and I still listen to it today.

Easily the weirdest thing I have ever seen on a major network. I still have to give kudos to ABC for airing it at all.

That was a great show. The recent remake I didn't like so much though, The last episode of the original series is especially strange because McGoohan was pissed about the series being canceled so he pulled out all the stops on the last one to spend a lot of the studios money on something that was intentionally not meant to make sense,

I haven't seen a lot of the episodes of the Prisoner because I don't watch television. But I do remember that the guardian of the prisoners was creepy. An innovative idea that was also scary. And I love the soundtrack of Twin Peaks. I have the CD.

We got DirecTV a couple of weeks back. I spent last weekend watching every episode back-to-back on the Chiller channel. It seemed better 20 years ago, but was fun anyway.
No reflection of song...which is cool...just a comment on the spirit.
You could play this every single day and that would be good with me.

As interesting and quirky as one of the most interesting and quirky shows ever put on TV. Always loved the groove of the music from the Dual Peaks.
Allways expected Waits to start some wild rant with this cool jazz piece , love it

The "Dance of the Dream Man" scene is one of the very peaks in the history of television. 
I hear 'It ain't necessarily so'.
"That's a DAMN good cup of coffee."
Well done in my opinion.
