The 1971 movie Vanishing Point managed to become a cult hit, with its story of a Benzedrine-popping driver (Barry Newman) in a race for his life with the police of several states, but somehow the soundtrack managed to remain out-of-print until 2004, when Soundtrack Classics reissued it on CD. The music is surprisingly cohesive, primarily built around different aspects of country-rock as embodied variously by Delaney & Bonnie & Friends, the Doug Dillard Expedition, and Jerry Reed, with some gospel tracks by Segarini & Bishop and Big Mama Thornton, plus Mountain's "Mississippi Queen." The music is all eminently listenable and then some, and has an earthiness that makes it more than a little bracing -- only the lyrical, string-dominated love theme, provided by Jimmy Bowen and his orchestra, breaks that mood and even it works within its own musical context, and is explainable given the time in which the movie was made. The entire release rather favorably recalls the soundtracks to Easy Rider and Zabriskie Point, but Vanishing Point stands up quite nicely musically on its own. ~ Bruce Eder

Liner Note Author: Andrew Keech.Uncut (p.116) - 4 stars out of 5 - "[The] cult '71 road movie boasts many car chases and as much deep existential meaning as you care to read into it. Much of its durably cool hippie attitude is down the eclectic soundtrack..."

Average Rating: (4.3 out of 5 stars) 4.5 stars

3 stars I bought it for my husband
The movie Vanishing Point is not my kind of movie but my husband loves it as well as the CD purchased. He is currently on a trip to the area depicted in the movie and watched the movie over and over to soak up the details. I had previously purchased the movie on VHS but he insisted on the DVD version. He walks on the treadmill to the music from the CD.
