I love this story about the big lebowski soundtrack................. <a class="user" href="http://www.rollingstone.com/news/story/22717670/inside_the_dudes_stoner_soundtrack">http://www.rollingstone.com/news/story/22717670/in ...</a>A tougher get was Townes Van Zandt's cover of the Rolling Stones' "Dead Flowers," which plays over Lebowski's closing credits. "[Former Stones manager] Allen Klein owns the rights to it," Burnett says. "He wanted $150,000." Burnett begged Klein to just come down and watch an early cut of Lebowski. "It got to the part where the Dude says, 'I hate the f**kin' Eagles, man!' Klein stands up and says, 'That's it, you can have the song!' That was beautiful." For the record, Burnett agrees with the Dude ("[The Eagles] sort of single-handedly destroyed that whole scene that was brewing back then," he says), but the line infuriated Glenn Frey. "I ran into [Frey] and he gave me some s**t," Jeff Bridges says. "I can't remember what he said exactly, but my anus tightened a bit."
