| | Dreamers Soundtrack CD
Bernardo Bertolucci's celebration of sexual and creative awakening, Dreamers -- which is set in 1968 Paris against the backdrop of that year's student riots -- features an appropriately sensual and freewheeling soundtrack that spans everything from classic American rock to classic French pop to excerpts of the scores from classic French films. The album tips its hat to Hendrix twice, opening with his molten "Third Stone From the Sun," and then following that with a well-intentioned but lacking cover of "Hey Joe" by the film's stars. The mannered French pop of Charles Trenet's "La Mer," Michel Polnareff's "Love Me Please Love Me," and Françoise Hardy's "Tous les Garcons et les Filles" make Steve Miller Band's "Songs for Our Ancestors," the Doors' "The Spy," and an edit of the Grateful Dead's "Dark Star" sound that much more decadently indulgent. Meanwhile, the pieces of music from such films as Les Quatres Cents Coups, A Bout de Souffle, and Pierre Le Fou tie the album together with an elegance and passion that culminates with the soundtrack's final song, Edith Piaf's "Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien." While its juxtapositions of French tradition and counterculture are jarring at times, Dreamers still does a worthy job of capturing the film's personal and political revolutions through music. ~ Heather Phares

Dreamers Soundtrack album
$7.59 Quite simply, Rocky IV was a movie for the ages. The story of a man who had it all, only to lose so much overnight. Revolving around tension and alienation on the personal, political, spiritual and athletic levels, Sylvester Stallone's portrayal of Rocky Balboa in Rocky IV was without question the most multi-dimensional role of his career. This isn't to shirk the original Rocky, which dealt with questions of class, ethnicity, and overcoming obstacles to victory -- but Rocky IV was more of a movie to be related to on a universal scale.
This indomitable spirit is best exemplified by the album's lead-off track "Burning Heart". The logical sequel to Survivor's epic, instantly recognizable and painfully unforgettable sports anthem "Eye of the Tiger" finds the central protagonist a bit more mature and refined; world-weary from his battles and exponentially more introspective than he was in his burning youth. ...
| | Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band CDs (1978) Original Soundtrack
Dreamers Soundtrack CD music
$14.89 Like the album itself, the soundtrack to the 1978 film Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band is a legend in its own right. Where the Beatles' album was a groundbreaking moment in pop music, the Robert Stigwood film was an unmitigated disaster, an embarrassment not only to the Beatles, but to everyone involved in the production. Nevertheless, as the years passed and '70s nostalgia grew, certain kitsch fanatics revealed an affection for the debacle, so it wasn't a complete surprise that the album was reissued on CD for its 20th anniversary. A reissue, however, doesn't validate this music, not by any stretch of the imagination. A few performers try to give their best -- witness Earth, Wind & Fire's "Got to Get You into My Life," Aerosmith's "Come Together," ...
