A three-note horn blast, a disco groove calling from the dance floor, a woman's voice charging in to sing "never, ever do I feel discouraged." It's the '70s again. You're surrounded by freedom at its most complete, and trivial. This is how Boogie Nights, a film about the rise and fall of a porn star, begins. The soundtrack consists of dance and trash pop songs playing non-stop, forming a kind of historical narrative behind the action. Vol. I rescues some great nuggets of fluff, both black and white--"Magnet and Steel" and "The Best of My Love," for example. Then, it deliberately goes too far with Night Ranger's "Sister Christian." The song, defiantly candy-ass, challenges our capacity to recycle the pop culture past. Its earnest emptiness and lack of irony make it the most uncool, and fascinating, thing on the record. --Steve Tignor

Love this cd. My children are 20 and 24; they took my cd so I had to order another one. I don't think you will be disappointed.
 Where's "Sniff 'n' the Tears" March 30, 2007

This soundtrack doesn't include one of the best songs from the movie, "Driver's Seat" by Sniff 'n' the Tears. Only 3 stars due to this flaw!

Where the heck is Sniff n' The Tears' "Driver's Seat" in this soundtrack. It plays at a definite changing point in the movie where Floyd comes to tell Jack that he needs to switch to video instead of film. It's a travesty that this song wasn't included. But a good soundtrack nonetheless
