The Official "My So-Called Life" Soundtrack

My So-Called Life Soundtrack

The official "My So-Called Life" soundtrack was released on 01/24/1995 on CD and cassette. The Atlantic Records Group struck the deal very early in the production process of the series, back in August 1994, weeks before the show's debut on ABC. The agreement was an unusually early leap-of-faith; deal points were hammered out based solely on the pilot episode -- at that time bereft of launch date, timeslot and network commitment beyond eight episodes.

The soundtrack was eventually released just one day before the the final episode aired on ABC in January 1995.

Tracklist:
(Side A)
1 Juliana Hatfield: "Make It Home" (episode 15, sung by the so-called angel)
2 Buffalo Tom: "Soda Jerk" (episode 12, live in Pikestreet and episode 8, Sharon and Kyle in the hall)
3 Sonic Youth: "Genetic" (episode 17, Rayanne and Jordan at Louie's)
