Thomas Pynchon's Soundtrack to Inherent Vice
Larry "Doc" Sportello is a private eye who sees the world through a
sticky dope haze, animated by the music of an era whose hallmarks were
peace, love, and revolution. As Doc's strange case grows stranger, his
60s soundtrack--ranging from surf pop and psychedelic rock to eerie
instrumentals--picks up pace. Have a listen to some of the songs
you'll hear in Inherent Vice--the playlist that follows is designed
exclusively for Amazon.com, courtesy of Thomas Pynchon. (Links will
