Instrument (Original Soundtrack) - Fugazi

Advantages: Blues music, what more can be said? Many great legends of blues and soul.
Disadvantages: Not enough songs

...’re wondering about the storyline or the film itself, go to: http://dvd.ciao.co.uk/TheBluesBrothersWideScreen35057 THE SONGS 11 tracks are included on this album; all are from the original movie, although some are slightly edited so that they are suitable for a soundtrack album. This editing is barely noticeable though. 1 – She Caught The Katy – As always, this is a great intro to the album. It’s the first song you’ll hear on the film and is very much in the style of blues. A continuous guitar rhythm is followed by an equally continuous drum beat. Brass instruments, such as trumpets are occasionally heard but the real joy is the harmonica. Jake Blues (John Belushi) sings the, typically blues, lyrics well. – 8/10 2 – Peter Gunn Theme – This instrumental follows a same beat as the previous track, as well as style. A continuous...

Advantages: Multi-faceted songs which flit between mood and tempo
Disadvantages: Can be a little esoteric - so grab those dictionaries!

CD 2 - 'Cinderella Search' (12" version) originally the b-side to 'Assassing' and is a song in two parts.  The first half is quite forgettable but the second half is fantastic talking about an unrequited love - 'Was that love in your eyes I saw or the reflection of mine?' 'Assassing' (alternative version) which is basically the same song as on CD1 but has more to the bridge that, although was played on showcases of the song live, was kept off the album version.  Pity really, I like the song with it in. 'Three Boats Down from the Candy' this is a remixed version, tarted up slightly to match the overall production of the 'Fugazi' album (it was released as the b-side to 'Punch and Judy') The next...

Advantages: Helps you re-live a fantastic series
Disadvantages: Some tracks do end sharply or repeat others

...For anyone who is totally addicted to Doctor Who - this album is for you. If you thought Series 1&2 original sound track was good, then this will blow you away. Murray Gold has excelled himself once again, delivering a soundtrack high in passionate imagination-capturing content that really will take you back to The Doctor and his adventures. The Album begins with All the Strange Strange creatures, which is a compliation of all the generalised music used in many episodes in the series. There are also more episode-specific tracks like Evolution of the Daleks and Boe. But some of these do end sharply (as heard in the TV series) and over lap into some of the more general themes. There is also a track called The Doctor Forever which is done in similar vain to All the Strange, Strange Creatures and covers all the "Doctor" music used... Read review
