Any good experience in discovering new music via TV or movie recently ?


My favorites are Micatone at Imposters’, Willie Dixon at Ginger Ale Afternoon, Meiko Kaji at Kill Bill, The Lively Ones at Pulp Fiction.....

Horace Tapscott on Bosch.  I queued up his stuff on Spotify and listened for 3 straight hours - fantastic.
I have to second The Queen’s Gambit. Great soundtrack for an absolutely fantastic limited series!! I’ve watched that a couple times. I personally love discovering songs or scores via movies and TV shows. The Leftovers and Euphoria are a couple of my other favorites, especially within context of the show. 
Bosch's jazz addiction is fantastic. The TV show shows him playing jazz CDs regularly including Frank Morgan and some other lesser known stuff. The Michael Connelly books include many mentions of Bosch's penchant for vinyl jazz. 
The theme by Grace Kelly is perfect for the show.

Also, +1 on David Byrne's "American Utopia". Inspiring! Cheers,
Spencer

This comment isn't about the music in The Queen's Gambit, but I did watch the last episode 3 times because she's so confident, fashionable, beautiful, and even if she had pushed people away earlier, they all come back to help her in the end. The way the different players whom she beat reacted to her is also interesting, especially Borgov who is a gracious loser. And then she took that walk through Moscow and all the old chess players congratulate her. Good stuff.
