Still Crazy After All These Years
I love it! It's my third copy! Who ever said Cd's don't wear out was lying!
The music is awesome.
Martha Reeves Rocked The House!
I was so pleased to see Martha Reeves of the Vandellas, included on this soundtrack of "Thelma & Louise." Great singers, like Miss Reeves, rarely get this type of honor, but Susan Sarandon probably had something to do with it.
When Martha recorded the tune, it was part of her critically acclaimed album MARTHA REEVES (MCA), which was produced by Richard Perry of Barbra Streisand fame, who had been a longtime fan of Miss Reeves' and had even approached Berry Gordy about recording Reeves. He was turned down.
Martha's album was, at the time, the most expensively produced album in history. "Wild Nights" was one of the highlights.
Good Road Music
This CD features some nice tracks for roadtripping (which, of course, is the point, since it's from a movie about a road trip gone wild). The BB King song, "Better Not Look Down", remains my favorite, while Glen Frey's "Part of Me, Part of You" is both touching and toe-tapping. Marianne Faithful's rendition of "The Ballad of Lucy Jordan" did eventually grow on me. Faithful's voice took some getting used to, but the lyrics were penned by one of my favorite childhood poets, Shel Silverstein...hence my desire to listen to it more closely. Finally, Hans Zimmer's haunting "Thunderbird" was an appropriate ending to the CD, and I would have been disappointed had it not been included on the soundtrack. So to any potential buyers, this soundtrack will make for a fun listen on a long trip down American roads. You might even want to rent a vintage convertible to make the experience complete.
