Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure (1989 Film) >>

Son of Rambow >>

The beauty of soundtrack albums is the variety which is evident with this 2008 soundtrack to the well-received British film about two young boys in the '80s who set out to make their own movie inspired by Stallone's Rambo flicks. The total of 21 tracks features over half - eleven cuts from the score and the balance ten tracks with '80s favorites from The Cure with 'Close To Me', Gary Numan's 'Cars' , Duran Duran's 'Wild Boys', Siouxsie & The Banshees' 'Peek A Boo', Blondie's 'Rapture' and more. Bulletproof.

Scooby-Doo! and the Witch's Ghost >>

In the animated feature that precedes this CD, Scooby Doo joins up with Velma, Shaggy, and the gang to solve the mystery of the Witch's Ghost. Both silly and spooky, the soundtrack features tunes from Witch's Ghost, as well as selections from its predecessor, and original songs by the Hex Girls, who were assembled for this project. Headed up by former Go-Go Jane Wiedlin, the Hex Girls posture and bounce through their numbers, copping sounds from rocker-girl progenitors Pat Benatar, Blondie's Debbie Harry, and Wiedlin's old chipmunk-punk crew. Delightfully daffy, rhyme schemes run toward "The Witch's Ghost / if she catches us we're toast" and we got "packs and packs and packs / of Scooby snacks." Littered with 'toon talk like "Zoinks!" and "Jinkies!" the disc packs a playful wallop with Billy Ray Cyrus hamming up Scooby's famous surf-rock theme song. A Hanna-Barbera classic for the next generation. --Paige La Grone

The Very Best of Jane Wiedlin >>

Pretty Woman >>

Alongside Ghost, another romantic comedy drama, Pretty Woman dominated the box office of 1990. The movie revitalised Richard Gere's career, and made a superstar of Julia Roberts, launching her on a string of hugely successful romantic comedies including My Best Friend's Wedding (1997), Notting Hill (1999), and, reuniting her with Gere and Pretty Woman director, Garry Marshall, The Runaway Bride (1999). Inevitably the movie's theme song is Roy Orbison's "Oh Pretty Woman", sounding fresh as ever. And if that is a typically male view of feminine attractions, Natalie Cole tells the other side of the story with the unrepentant "Wild Women Do". David Bowie provides an update of one of his greatest hits, with "Fame 90" and Robert Palmer describes "Life In Detail". The remainder of the album is a snapshot of up-and-coming acts at the beginning of the 90s, with Go West's massive hit, "King Of Wishful Thinking" and Roxette's chart smash "It Must Have Been Love" setting the agenda for slick, well produced power-pop. As nostalgia for the time just before dance took over the charts, or simply as a highly polished souvenir of one of the most popular movies ever made, Pretty Woman requires, as Peter Cetera appropriately adds, "No Explanation". --Gary S.
