In 1982, Copeland was involved in the production of a WOMAD benefit album called Music and Rhythm . Copeland’s score for Rumble Fish secured him a Golden Globe nomination in 1983. The film, directed and produced by Francis Ford Coppola from the S. E. Hinton novel, also had a song released to radio on A&M Records ” Don’t Box Me In ” (UK singles chart n. 91)—a collaboration between Copeland and singer-songwriter Stan Ridgway , leader of the band Wall of Voodoo —that received significant airplay upon release of the film that year.
