Great sampling of 70s tuneage

"Boy, this fun soundtrack from the interesting new movie is sure to evoke a lot of memories for anyone who had a radio or 8-track playing in the 1970s. Interesting diverse choices sure to bring it all back and the sound quality is particularly excellent...I assume they've been remastered. Great job.



The only track I skip is the Charlie Brown Christmas classic "O Tannenbaum." The holiday affiliation is impossible to ignore and disrupts the nostalgia of the other songs."

"One of the highlights of the colorful soundtrack to this crazy film was the use of three Bill Evans tunes: Waltz For Debbie, Very Early, and Re: Person I Knew. Unfortunately, the wonderful recordings of these classic tunes are not to be found on this disc. They were the real attraction for a Running With Scissors soundtrack for me."

"This CD contains 13 of the most amazing selections of background music; what drew me to buy it was that it covers a period of music going back generations. Who ever believed that "Blinded by the Light" by Manfred Mann's Earth Band and Nat King Cole's "Stardust" would ever appear on one CD? It works!!! I listen to it all the time."
