[Edit]

Considered a "soundtrack" to Keven McAlester's fascinating documentary on psychedelic rock pioneer Roky Erickson, You're Gonna Me Miss Me serves as an introductory sampler and career survey. "For You (I'd Do Anything)" and "Goodbye Sweet Dreams" are previously unreleased tracks, each consisting of just acoustic guitar and Erickson's heartbreaking vocals, which make everything he sings sound like a matter of life or death. The 13th Floor Elevators start the set with two of the group's most infamous songs: "You're Gonna Miss Me" and "Fire Engine." From there, it's a quick run-through of a 40-year career. Too brief to be comprehensive, the soundtrack does have some fantastic performances. It features a few moments with Erickson's late-'70s/early-'80s band The Aliens and runs through classics like "Two Headed Dog" and "Cold Night for Alligators." Acoustic recordings from the '90s, including the ghostly "Unforced Peace," round off the set. There isn't a bum track here, and most are as heartwrenching as the works of another doomed Texas cult songwriter/performer, Townes Van Zandt.
