Editorial/Description:

Amazon.com: There's a popular movie trivia game called Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon whose rough hypothesis is that the actor is somehow the center of the cinematic universe. One doesn't get very far into the game without encountering Footloose. The film that seems destined to become an 80's camp classic (repressed Midwestern youth bravely fighting for their right to dance) was also a notable trailblazer in the pop song soundtrack marketing scam, i.e. line up a bunch of contemporary hit makers and have them cut a batch of songs that might not be germaine to the film's plot but will sell oodles of units. But damned if Footloose isn't a classic slice--for better or worse--of mid-'80s, album-oriented rock. This kind of instant era-compilation must make the folks at K-Tel very nervous. --Jerry McCulley

Customer Reviews:

Prompt Shipment   November 19, 2008
The product arrived very very quickly and was "new" as promised. Thanks for the wonderful shopping experience.


Wonderful album, but I've got one question...   September 11, 2008
In the song "Somebody's Eyes", by Karla Bonoff, does anybody notice a difference in the opening of the song? Now I didn't buy the CD. I downloaded off of amazon.com and noticed that one of the instruments has been edited out of the song. I don't understand why downloading it compared to buying the CD would make any difference, but if you play the original master of "Somebody's Eyes" and then compare it to the remastered version you'll notice a difference. I just wondered if anybody else had noticed this. At any rate, it's a nice song!

I could brag all day about the soundtrack. It's a classic! From the chart toppers "Footloose", by Kenny Loggins and "Let's Hear It For The Boy", by Denise Willams, to Mike Reno and Ann Wilson doing "Almost Paradise", Bonnie Tyler's "Holding Out For A Hero", Shalamar's "Dancing In The Sheets" and Kenny Loggins "I'm Free (Heaven Helps The Man)" and on down the line of songs to the catchy "Never", by Moving Pictures. Also the additions of John Cougar's Hurt So Good" (Classic), and Foreigner's "I've Been Waiting For A Girl Like You", along with Quite Riot's "Bang Your Head (Metal Health)" to compliment Sammy Hagar's "The Girl Gets Around", additions that should have been placed here when the soundtrack was first realeased. The extended mix of "Dancing In The Sheets" isn't all that special, too much of an echo, but the whole album is simply a classic. Enough said!


Footloose-A great buy (1 of 1 Found this Helpful)   March 6, 2008
This was a great buy. It was a really good price and even had 4 bonus tracks on it, that I did not know about. The bonus tracks were all great hits when this movie came out like, Quiet Riot-"Bang your Head" It took me back to the movie and back to my high shool days in the 1980's!!!!


Wonderful   August 10, 2007
Excellent service, quick delivery, products exactly as ordered and in good shape. Would definitely buy from them again.


Eh, It's Okay   April 24, 2007
If you like listening to songs played in the background of movies, go for this one. I am more of the score type of soundtrack buyer. The CD in a whole was enjoyable for a car ride, but not much more than that. I am still satisfied with my purchase though.
