iTunes Review

In the ‘80s, movie soundtracks with duets were all the rage. The 1981 film Endless Love featured a hit title track with Lionel Richie and Diana Ross, while An Officer and a Gentlemen presented Jennifer Warnes who sang “Up Where We Belong” with spasmodic gesticulator Joe Cocker in 1982. Warnes hit again in 1987’s Dirty Dancing on “(I’ve Had) The Time of My Life,” with Righteous Brother Bill Medley. But this album was so successful, it went platinum 11 times, spending 18 weeks in the #1 slot on the Billboard 200 album sales charts. It also won an Oscar and a Golden Globe for Best Original Song as well as a GRAMMY for Best Pop Performance By a Duo. Eric Carmen’s pop serenade “Hungry Eyes” yielded another hit for the soundtrack, peaking at #4 on the Billboard Hot 100. And yes, even the late Patrick Swayze had a #3 hit with the romantic power ballad “She’s Like the Wind.” Swayze originally wrote the song in 1984 for the soundtrack to Grandview, U.S.A. but it was rejected. He played it for Dirty Dancing’s soundtrack producer Jimmy Ienner who loved it enough to place it in the top sequence of the album.

Two in One - Finally!

Putting this album in context: This version of the soundtrack is actually a combination of two previously released albums: "Dirty Dancing: Original Soundtrack From The Vestron Motion Picture" AND "More Dirty Dancing (1987 Film Additional Soundtrack)". Every single song from those albums is on this one, and no more. "More Dirty Dancing" is not available for digital download purchase here or at any other online store, which is why the songs from it are "album only" here. As an owner of both of the original CD's (and cassette tapes), I'm glad they finally got around to combining the two, as some of the best songs weren't on the "Original" soundtrack. Also, I can attest that the remastering is very good, making this a good buy even if you do have the originals. And if you *don't* have either or both of the originals, and you love the movie, this collection is a must-have!

love the soundtrack even though GOD I FEEL OLD!!!
