Synopsis

Amazon.com

The Farrelly brothers, who brought us Dumb and Dumber and There's Something About Mary, have written a humorous tale starring Alec Baldwin, Shawn Hatosy, and George Wendt about a kid whose blue-collar dad ships him off to a prep school to learn how the better half lives. Plenty of classic rock accompanies the kid's travails since the movie has been set in the early 1970s, when The Eagles, Paul McCartney and Wings, and Steely Dan were the obvious soundtrack to one's coming of age. The Who's "Won't Get Fooled Again" leads things off (much as it summed things up for Spike Lee's Summer of Sam). Free's classic rock staple "All Right Now" (the predecessor to Bad Company) is a natural, as is Lee Michael's rough and tumble "Do You Know What I Mean." And while "Stairway to Heaven" doesn't make an appearance, you can still flick your Bic to Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Free Bird." --Rob O'Connor

CD Reviews

Classic!

09/04/1999

(4 out of 5 stars)

"Great soundtrack - reminded me of being a little kid (especially the Eagles song, "Take It Easy")and going to rockin' backyard barbecues where I'd steal sips of beer. Classic conglomeration of all the early '70s faves. Such a universal appeal - kids, even though it may feel like you're rummaging through your parents record collection, all of these songs transcend their time periods. I remember singing along to "Free Bird" in the back of a Camero long after the song (and the car!) was in style. Get this soundtrack, and go see the movie, too - it's kind of a chick flick disguised as a guy flick - which means that everyone will like it."

Hats off!

"I haven't even bought the CD or seen the movie yet, but once I saw the music line-up, I couldn't believe such a fantastic compilation of songs had been put together. There's not a bad song on the CD. In fact, they're time-tested and lasting favorites."

Sadly, Not Available As an Eight Track

"I grew up a disco kid, and I was always in awe of the kids who fixed up their hotrods in their driveways...and this music was what was blaring out of them. Sort of an early 70's classic rock primer (plus "Band on the Run", which isn't really rocking, but still a good song). Either you know all this stuff and want it, or you don't and you don't."
