Free Music Notes for Saturday Night Fever: The Original Movie Sound TrackFree Music Review: I've Got The Fever Hit: 5 Stars
It was 1977 and I was in my first year of junior high. I was all into Led Zeppelin, Aerosmith, Styx, and Foreigner and my sister brought this album home and actually started learning how to disco dance in my very own home...I was sooo incredibly mortified...what was even more embarrassing was I found myself irresistibly drawn to the music and when nobody was home I put on that record and started dancing myself.
How could one not?
This could easily be looked at as a "period" piece, but it really does stand up with some of the great classical pop/rock albums of our times...that is of course my opinion, but I really do feel that this should be in the 100 greatest albums of all times...maybe it is and I'm just not aware of it. So, if it is...great and if it isn't, then like I said, it should be.
So until they invent a fully functioning time machine where we can zap ourselves back to the Planet 70s, I suggest you buy this gem and go back in time with your mind and remember how great it was to just boogie on down...
Free Music Review: An excellent CD bringing back great memories for the disco fan! Hit: 5 Stars
I too remember seeing this film with my mother and sister during a very busy time. Not only was this film a great way to escape our troubles and spend an fun afternoon, the soundtrack is brilliantly reproduced in digital sound on this CD! For Bee Gee fans this CD is a must, of course; and there is great music by The Tavares, Kool & The Gang and K. C. And The Sunshine Band.
My favorite tracks on the CD? "Stayin' Alive," of course, "How Deep Is Your Love," "Night Fever," "Calypso Breakdown" and "Jive Talkin'." The sountrack CD also comes with a really nice booklet giving credits for each song with cool movie photo stills. Two pages of liner notes by John Tobler written in 1995 really round the cover booklet out very well.
The sound is quite good even in a portable music player and this WILL bring back fond memoires for those of us who do still value the days of really good disco including The Bee Gees. I highly recommend this CD for us fans--or as a great introduction for others into the great world of disco! Awesome! Wow! SMILE
Free Music Review: Perfect Pop ! Hit: 5 Stars
The Bee Gees certainly caught the zeitgeist of the Seventies when they turned the world onto disco with the release of this classic album . It's well known that this disc contains some of the most perfect pop singles in history , but if you dig deeper you'll find that the additional instrumentals have a lot more to offer with repeated playing . The immaculate string and brass arrangements , and the fine playing of the musicians elevate these instrumentals from mere filler material to killer material . Whether it's funked up Beethoven , cod calypso , or Latin flavoured workouts these tracks are worthy companions to the classic songs that litter this album . And to have a 10 minute version of " Disco Inferno " as the album's finale has got to be the best type of icing on any cake . Unlike John Travolta's white suit this music remains as fresh and as vibrant as ever !Greatest pop album of all time ? - Greatest soundtrack of all time ? -- It's certainly up there with the best !
Free Music Review: Best Selling Soundtrack Ever Hit: 5 Stars
Apart from the soundtrack of Bodyguard, this is surely one of the best selling soundtrack ever. Starting with the Bee Gees, they are originally slow ballad singers. From a interchange at Main Course, they changed themselves to R&B music singers. Stayin' Alive, Night Fever, More Than a Woman, and If I Can't Have You are surely the best rocking songs in the Bee Gees's history. How Deep Is Your Love is rocking on around the world till now. Surely, the Bee Gees ruled the disco era during 1977.Yvonne Elliman and Travares, are also great, but they used Bee Gees's songs, Yvonne Elliman sang If I Can't Have You (Bee Gees's own edition in Bee Gees Greatest), and the Travares sang a different version of More Than a Woman Saturday Night Fever movie wasn't that good, but with the soundtrack, it's surely the world's top LP.
Free Music Review: Great soundtrack, great memories Hit: 5 Stars
Everytime I hear this album it brings back such fun memories. I was 18 when this movie and soundtrack came out, and I was newly arrived in Canada as a Nanny for 2 children. I used to hang out with other British Nannies and friends, and this was THE movie to see. Along with Star Wars, but to us, that was a 'guys' film. For us girls "Saturday Night Fever" was IT, and we saw it at least twice, and everyone bought the album as soon as it was released. I have since seen the movie, and it is funny how 'corny' it seems to me now, but back then, to kids, teens and young adults, it was everything. But the music is still great, and every party I go to, at least one song from this is played. It is still 'great stuff'.
