CEO and chief designer for West Coast Choppers, custom bike builder to the stars, and host of Discovery Channel’s Monster Garage Jesse James took time out of his whirlwind schedule to hand-pick the soundtrack for his life at the time, and newest documentary film Motorcycle Mania 3. The collection is an exhilarating accompaniment to the film that is being shown on Discovery Channel now and will be available on DVD in late summer.
As with its predecessors Motorcycle Mania 1 and 2, the third film showcases the immense talents of Jesse James the designer and builder, but goes even further, diving into the tumultuous life of this enigmatic character. In Mania 3, we ride alongside Jesse as he works on dealing with his new found fame. To save his sanity and his soul, Jesse turns to his one solace: building the ultimate chopper, forged from a sheet of pure shining copper.
Jesse’s commentary on the soundtrack that will be in stores July 27 on Amygdala Music / iMUSIC is as follows:
Fu Manchu - I'm Getting Away
"When I work I listen to Fu Manchu."
Cypress Hill - Get Out of My Head
"This song is what it sounds like in my head when shit gets crazy."
Down - Stone The Crow
"This band rules."
Lou Rawls - How Long How Long Blues
"Gotta have a little soul music in there."
Corrosion of Conformity - 13 Angels
"I was lucky enough to tour with COC. Pepper is the Man!"
Manic Hispanic - Rudy Cholo
"Steve Soto is my home-boy...we go back about 20 years."
New Bomb Turks - Hassle St.
"This song makes me wanna punch somebody."
Fu Manchu - The Mongoose
"My first BMX bike was a Mongoose."
Kid Rock - Long Haired Country Boy
"Bobby's my home-boy -- he nailed this song when we were in Mexico...I think it’s the single best part in MM3."
Turbonegro - The Age of Pamparius
"More music to throttle somebody to."
The Supersuckers - Good Bye
"Love this song, reflects my mood at that point in my life."
Danzig - How The Gods Kill
"Glenn is one of the biggest influences in my life....I basically became
an adult while I was on the road with Danzig.....he is definitely one of
my heroes."
From the streets of Long Beach to the deserts of Mexico, Jesse takes us on the wildest of rides, ending with the ultimate road trip across Northern Mexico with his good friend Kid Rock at his side. Like the unique song written for the film by Fu Manchu, the soundtrack for Motorcycle Mania 3 will appeal to anyone who dreams of “Getting Away From it All.”
