Twin Peaks Soundtrack CD for Sale

Audrey asks if the juke box music is too dreamy, not knowing that this is actually named Audrey’s Dance outside of the fictional town of Twin Peaks. Creator David Lynch had actress Sherilyn Fenn in mind when he created the coy, love struck, rich girl, Audrey Horne.

The actress does not disappoint as Audrey.  She performs this scene as a young woman yearning to be an adult, ordering coffee, for a childish reason (Agent Cooper loves coffee). She doesn’t realize that swaying to music in public may get you some strange looks. She still is impulsive and dances to her music when the mood strikes her.

Most of the music of Twin Peaks, represented in the diner, in dreams, and throughout the series, has the smokey room, 50s jazz combo feel. No one listens to the pop styles of the 80s or 90s here, not even the teenagers.

Once in a while there’s the sound of a twangy guitar, fingers snapping, or a stray reed instrument.  It is of an era that, by 1990 is definitely out of place, much like the town. It is the past reinvented for the present (circa 1990). Below is the gently haunting theme from the first season.
