The lone eponymous album by The Lonely Boys is probably the only soundtrack to a novel.

Included with the first run of Mats Olsson’s 1995 novel about a 1960s band and released commercially in 1996, the album saw Per Gessle team up with Nisse Helberg to create a soundtrack to accompany the story.

Both the book jacket and the album cover use Dolce Vita to emulate a 1960s style. It is paired with several styles from the Monotype Grotesque family.
