Road To Perdition - Original Soundtrack

Advantages: Great Songs You Remember From Films
Disadvantages: Dancing The 'Hot Stuff' From 'The Full Monty'!!

...I am a huge music fan, I have been since I was old enough to listen and since that day, I have had a diverse music taste, I cannot pin point my favourite genre and I find music very uplifting & I especially love music in films. So, did you, like me, love the music used in Uma Thurman & John Travolta's dancing scene in 'Pulp Fiction', did you feel Donna Summer's 'Hot Stuff' dancing scene in 'The Full Monty' was great, did you love the hustle soundtrack to 'Lock, Stock & 2 Smoking Barrels'? Are you a Film Four fan? If you can answer yes to any of these questions, I am certain you'd find something you like on this album. Essential Soundtracks was released back in 1999, the second year of my A-levels and I bought this CD in Woolies for a mere £4.99 for a 40 track double CD, I purely bought this for the more trendy numbers from...

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.

Advantages: Contains all the best tracks from the film
Disadvantages: When i think of one il post one!

...I got this album as a christmas present last year, so im not sure how easy it is to get hold of. I do know that large music shops like Virgin or HMV have it in stock and it is also easily available online. Prices do range depending on where you go, the cheapest I've seen it for is £7.00 the most expensive was £12.00. This Album is from the 1987 movie Dirty Dancing, which starred Jennifer Grey and Patrick Swayze in the lead roles. The film is based on a holiday camp in 1963, where a young girl Frances (Baby) (played by Grey) falls in love with the camps leading dance teacher Johnny (played by Swayze). This is where a lot of the inspiration for the soundtrack has come from; the soundtrack brings back memories from the film. Most of the songs on this album will definitely make you want to get up and Dirty Dance! It is a one disk... Read review
