Truly an AMAZING film!!! I've seen it many times (and own it, of course) - my favorite! Tom must have know how good it would turn out, because he did NOT ask for a specific amount of money, rather, he asked for a percent. That ultimately netted him in the region of forty million dollars. BTW - many men were asked to take the lead on this movie (and turned it down) before Tom was asked and said yes.

Many people here are giving this product a bad rap. The problem is not the product but the buyer not knowing what they want and not asking questions. The songs are wonderful and can make you drift away to another era. This movie covered a lot of significant points in American History and the songs just add more to each time period covered. I would highly recommend this CD to anyone, especially students in high school and college age. Hey, could be a possible theme or dissertation piece.

This is one of the best soundtracks from one of the best movies ever created! I love every song on both discs, and glad to have it back in my collection again, after my first one went missing. An excellent price too for this iconic soundtrack!

Like the movie the soundtrack runs the timeline from late 50's to early 80's music covering rockabilly, soul, pop, R&B, country, folk, surfin' music, you name it. I also appreciate that it includes songs often overlooked by today's Classic radio stations. Not a rehash of what you hear everyday. A great CD as a stand alone item but if you've seen the movie you'll recall some of the scenes as you listen, your own mini FLASHBACK. Unlike most compilations this hasn't any throw it in there "Filler" songs. Well done!
