Synopsis

Amazon.com
Ini Kamoze's "Here Comes the Hotstepper" alone makes this OST to the Robert Altman film (renamed Ready To Wear for us hicks in the North American sticks) a monster prospect. Laden with dance, urban, and alternative gems, it will be boosted by entries from Supercat, Janet Jackson (the "Let's Get It On"-inspired 70's "Love Groove") and British sensations M People. Toss in new cuts from The Rolling Stones, Sam Phillips (a dizzy cover of "These Boots Are Made For Walking"), Deep Forest (on a Bulgarian tip), The New Power Generation and a revitalized Terence Trent D'Arby and presto vivacé--this will be flying off the rack.

CD Reviews

Why do soundtracks leave out the best songs?
J. A. Spilker | Portland, OR United States | 11/29/2005
(3 out of 5 stars)

"I am a huge fan of the film; came looking for the CD for the hot version of "La Vie en Rose" that runs over the closing credits... but alas!"
Soundtracks always seem to miss the mark somehow....
N. Sneed | California | 06/30/2007
(4 out of 5 stars)

"And the missed mark on this one was the exclusion of "La Vie en Rose" by Grace Jones, the song that ran during the closing credits. I fail to see how the soundtrck producers ever thought to leave the song off as it capped off the movie so well and would have been a perfect closing song for the cd. Well I solved that problem by making my own cd and adding La Vie en Rose at the end, take that!!!



Overall this is a very good soundtrack and very much a diamond in the rough."
Great tunes for the price

"I love a lot of the songs on this cd. It was a great price and arrived quickly. I buy used cd's from Amazon all the time. I have never had a problem. Plus I am not pirating music. Artists need to get paid. Highly recommended it especially if you are replacing cd's that have gone missing."
