MacBruce Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 The La La Land soundtrack I bough a couple of years ago and it's wonderful as was the movie itself. Saturday Night Fever and The Greatest Showman are in my collection s well. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Pepper movie was complete shit, but I did used to love the soundtrack. Earth, Wind & Fire's "Got To Get You Into My Life" was my favorite track. Saturday Night Fever was a good movie with a soundtrack album that I couldn't keep secret because that disco needs to be played loud. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I enjoy all the music, though I can't say I've listened to the album in the last twenty years.  1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Promise61 Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 An under appreciated film that went under the radar, too. A soundtrack that does exactly what it's supposed to do. Â Â Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Promise61 Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 On a gentler note, the s/t to On Golden Pond (Dave Gruisin' ?) is just gorgeous. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jerseyfornia Posted March 19, 2019 Author Share Posted March 19, 2019 This isn't one of my favorites, but I do listen to it on occasion and it's very relaxing. This is Journey's last album with Gregg Rolie; the soundtrack to a Chinese film. It's mostly instrumental and closer to their pre-Steve Perry sound, with only two true vocal performances on the album. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mocker Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 Never actually listened to the soundtrack album, but this movie had some great songs....... Five tracks in the film, but not included on the soundtrack, are: "Moving in Stereo" by the Cars, "American Girl" by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, "We Got the Beat" by the Go Go's, which is the movie's opening theme; Led Zeppelin's "Kashmir", and "Jingle Bell Rock" by Bobby Helms. In addition, the live band at the prom dance during the end of the film played two songs also not on the soundtrack: The Eagles' "Life in the Fast Lane" and Sam the Sham's "Wooly Bully". 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sonicramone Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 The version here of 'Let My Love Open the Door' was my wedding song. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Except that Kashmir didn't fit the script. Damone told Ratner to play side 1 of Led Zeppelin IV; Kashmir is on Physical Graffiti. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That final kitchen scene may be the most disturbing thing I've ever seen in a film. It's a brilliant, horrific, slow-burn of a movie that pays off in spades. Thank you.

Jerseyfornia Posted March 20, 2019 Author Share Posted March 20, 2019 Considering the nature of this thread, I should say that the music was excellent. It's the kind of film score that you hear without noticing, feel without listening. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
