Free Music Notes for Good Morning Vietnam: The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack
Free Music Review: Great soundtrack for a great movie.
Hit: 5 Stars
"Good Morning, Vietnam" has one of the best soundtracks I've ever heard, made all the better by its inclusion of sections of Airman Cronauer's broadcasts on AFRS. The full list of the track is included on the product description, so I won't list that here. I was puzzled by the absence of the song "It's Alright", which was used at one point and nobody except the makers of this film seem to have heard of. I noticed some folks' complaining about the inclusion of Cronauer's broadcasts, and the supposedly poor quality of the soundtrack. Don't know what either bunch is talking about, really. Both sound just fine to me. And if the broadcasts become tiresome quickly, odds are the movie will too, and that's a shame, because "Good Morning, Vietnam" is one of the best I've ever seen.
Included on the front and back of the case are some images of Cronauer and other characters, as well as a full track list. Altogether, an excellent soundtrack that I highly recommend.
Good Morning Vietnam: The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack Poster
UK compilation featuring 17 tracks is a soundtrack to the 60s with No.1 hits by Norman Greenbaum & Chris Farlowe, as well as many other thought provoking classics by the likes of Jimmy Cliff, Donovan, & The Zombies, to name a few. Music Club. 2004.Nineteen eighty-seven's Good Morning, Vietnam was a turning point for Robin Williams, garnering the comic his first Academy Award nomination and leveraging him into the first rank of American film stars. As directed by Barry Levinson, Williams imbues the "true life" story of Armed Forces Radio rebel Adrian Cronauer with his patented machine-gun comic banter, undercut by dollops of now equally familiar tragi-comic bathos. But contrary to the tired hit parade we've come to expect from period soundtracks, the '60s music Williams's character spins here is often a refreshing surprise, drawing from trashy garage-band chic ("Liar Liar" by the Castaways), underexposed British Invasion hits (the Searchers' "Sugar and Spice," "Game of Love" by Wayne Fontana and the Mindbenders), and relatively obscure American chart hits ("Five O'Clock World" by the Vogues, the Rivieras' "Warm California Sun"), all of it gratuitously punctuated by Williams's manic DJ rantings. The inspired revival of Louis Armstrong's "What a Wonderful World" also became one of the 1980s' most unlikely hits. --Jerry McCulley
