"I'm Forrest...Forrest Gump (The Feather Theme)" ("Forrest Gump Suite" by Alan Silvestri) was nominated for Best Pop Instrumental Performance in the 37th Annual Grammy Awards. Digitally remastered by Dave Donnelly (DNA Mastering, Studio ... Full DescriptionCity, California).
Not since THE BIG CHILL has America been as captivated by a soundtrack as it has by FORREST GUMP. While THE BIG CHILL was more or less Motown-era songs geared towards baby-boomers, FORREST GUMP is a musical time machine spaced out over two discs. Opening with Elvis Presley's "Hound Dog," this aural odyssey ends with Bob Seger's "Against The Wind" followed by composer Alan Silvestri's instrumental "Forrest Gump Suite." In between, a host of popular genres are represented from the roughly thirty year span covered in the film.
On the first disc there's rockabilly (Duane Eddy), Motown (The Four Tops), folk (Joan Baez), soul (Aretha Franklin), surf music (The Beach Boys), and pop (Jackie De Shannon). The second disc continues with protest music (Jefferson Airplane), more Motown (The Supremes), southern rock (Lynyrd Skynyrd), easy listening (B.J. Thomas), and country (Willie Nelson). This collection is tailor-made for the random button or a CD changer at any party.

 Awesome compilation
This is a great compilation of 60s & 70s songs. I originally had the cassette which didn't have all these songs, so the CD is an even better deal.

Forrest Gump Soundtrack CD music
$10.49 
Following the critically and commercially successful 1997 OLD FRIENDS box set, Legacy released a single-disc Simon & Garfunkel best-of collection. Simon & Garfunkel's are arguably the most successful duo in pop history, and this set features all of their charting songs. The disc is also an improvement on their 1972 GREATEST HITS release, with nearly twice the number of tracks, remastered sound, and wonderful liner notes by David Halberstram.
"The Sound of Silence," an anthem for a bygone era, leads into the reflective "Homeward Bound." Though it may not have climbed as high on the charts, the haunting and string-laden "The Dangling Conversation" is another standout track. "The 59th Street Bridge Song (Feelin' Groovy)" and "At the Zoo" are ...

Forrest Gump Soundtrack music CDs
$19.09 
Recorded live at the Winterland, San Francisco, California; Marin Civic Center, San Rafael, California; Island Music Center, Commack, Long Island, New York; State University Of New York at Plattsburgh, Plattsburgh, New York. Includes liner notes by Cameron Crowe.
Decades after its 1976 release, FRAMPTON COMES ALIVE! seems like an anomaly, with its unusual genesis almost impossible to believe. Peter Frampton, guitarist for a modestly successful boogie band (Humble Pie), released several solo records that were almost entirely ignored. However, he spent years crisscrossing the nation's sports arenas, opening for everyone under the sun, until so many people had seen him in America's hockey rinks that his double-LP live record became one of the most successful rock albums of all time.
Listening to the ...
| | Bob Seger Greatest Hits CD (1994)
Forrest Gump Soundtrack songs
$12.55 
Detroit has produced more than its share of great music: from jazz stars like Hank, Thad & Elvin Jones; to the Motown stable of vocal artists, and legendary rhythm players Benny Benjamin and James Jamerson. Not to mention a whole lot of hard funk and primal metal, everyone from Funkadelic and Ted Nugent, to Iggy & The Stooges and the MC5--hard driving, rugged rock and roll. Put it all together with a touch of pop, and a lot of soul, and you've got Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet Band.
It's easy to divine Seger's influence on the music of Bruce Springsteen, and draw parallels with the vocal style of Van Morrison. The epic themes of Seger's characters on "Night Moves" certainly parallel those of the folk heroes who populate Springsteen songs (though he began developing his menagerie a good decade before the Boss). The chant-like, testifying cadences of Seger's blowtorch voice, and his predilection for gospelish motifs, puts one in mind of the mighty Celt's visionary flights.
And as the fine GREATEST HITS makes clear, Bob Seger's influence on contemporary roots music is enormous. A song such as "Like ...
