What the Real Shag Sountrack Should Be
Jenni | Chicago, IL | 03/10/2005
(1 out of 5 stars)

"I must have too much time on my hands... Anyways, I was greatly disappointed that the "soundtrack" didn't include even one of my favorite songs from the movie, so I've done my own research and here is a list of the songs that were in the movie and should be on the soundtrack. Most of these songs can be found on albums available on Amazon.

Monkey Time - Major Lance

Ooh Aah - Jakki O

Stagger Lee - Lloyd Price

It Will Stand - The Showmen

Easier Said Than Done - The Essex

Baby Work Out - Jackie Wilson

Since I Don't Have You - Skyliners

Sixty-Minute Man - Billy Ward



I hope this helps!"
Shag The Movie - A Missed Opportunity For A Great Soundtrack
Jenni | 09/15/1998
(2 out of 5 stars)

"Shag The Movie soundtrack is a missed opportunity. The tracks on the audio CD are good to be sure. But it is what is not on the CD that is a major disappointment for anyone who has seen this movie.The movie opens up with the Shirelles' classic "Mama Said" (left off this compilation). And down at Myrtle Beach at the dance hall where all the action takes place, three great renditions of rock/R&B classics are not on this "soundtrack " CD! Those songs are "Stagger Lee", "Sixty Minute Man", and "Stay". Each of these classics are featured songs in the movie. Moreover, the movie reaches its climax at the Shag Dance Contest with all that great hoofing done to "Stagger Lee". Leaving this track off the CD would be like leaving "Unchained Melody" by the Righteaous Brothers off the Ghost CD soundtrack!It is a shame that what would could have been a great CD is not. Anyone who has seen this movie has to wonder how these, and other tracks that were a major part of the film score, were not included."
Where is the real soundtrack?

"I have been on the hunt all day to recreate the real soundtrack for my mom. This is one of our all time favorite movies! The list below is the real soundtrack. Those tracks with an Asterix are the ones on the so-called soundtrack. I can't find ooh ahh anywhere!
