Great CD

"Yes, I did buy the cd without seeing the movie. But, I have my reasons. You see, my favorite performer sings two of the songs - Adam Pascal sings both "Heal Me, I'm Heartsick" and "Fight" with the band "No Vacancy". I was a little upset that he was given no acknowledgement on the cd for his vocal performances, but then I realized that if anyone has ever heard Adam before, they would know it's him. I did listen to the rest of the cd, and I found a lot of my favorite classical rock. Hey, who doesn't love the Doors, right. Also, the Black Keys piece was awesome as well. Still, the two songs with "No Vacancy" (to me) are clearly the best... but then again, I'm a little prejudiced, LOL. If you liked these two songs, you may wish to look at Adam's solo album "Model Prisoner" at www.adampascal.net or the soundtrack to the Musical Rent. Sorry about the biased review, I just couldn't help it."
The Movie Makes You Smile, The Songs Keep You Rockin'!!!!!!!

"Not since "Almost Famous" has a movie so embraced the love of rock 'n' roll. Jack Black and his talented young group are a revelation - proving that the love of music can transcend the odds. I think the theme song, "School Of Rock" deserves an Oscar nomination. I am not kidding!! Thematically, what other song this year fits its film better?! And Stevie Nicks should be proud. She is the only female rocker surrounded by classic male rockers (Led Zeppelin, The Who, The Doors, etc.). Mike White and crew... ya dun good!!!!!!!!!!!"
