Well, good news for you, Roscoe, the "Teachers" soundtrack has been out since the beginning (and not on Intrada). I bought that soundtrack CD to get Joe Cocker's "Edge of a Dream". As for all your other suggestions, I don't think Intrada will even touch those, as I had called on Friday to suggest releasing soundtracks of "Voices" and "Sixteen Candles" and they said they won't release soundtracks that have mostly pop songs. They only release soundtrack albums that are virtually all score music, and if a pop song or two is on there, then OK. So soundtracks that are collections of pop songs - they have no interest in making money in THAT market!

Unfortunately, the Teachers soundtrack is out of print and now commands quite high prices in the used market.

Don't understand their strategy...isn't Foul Play largely composed of pop songs?!

That's a good question. Other than the 2 Barry songs, are there other pop songs on there? I've never owned the soundtrack, so I don't know off the top of my head, but I'll certainly know when the CD arrives.

   Some soundtrack albums have songs that, while not top 40 hits, had a big impact in terms of radio play or simply because the movie was so popular. Examples include Lindsey Buckingham's "Holiday Road" and "One Foot Back In Your Door" by Roman Holiday from the Teachers soundtrack.


I don't recall ever hearing those songs, but was "Understanding" by Bob Seger available anywhere but the Teachers strk?

I believe it's on his Greatest Hits, Volume 2 CD.

I bought the Foul Play soundtrack CD a while ago, and meant to report here. It does contain the correct version of "Ready To Take a Chance Again" - in STEREO. S this is the first domestic CD to have this version. Only one foreign CD has this version, as far as I can tell. I will compare the two and see just how the quality is on the Foul Play CD.

Anyone tried doing a sync of the mono and stereo versions of "Ready To Take A Chance Again" to get the harp that appears on the hit 45 on to the stereo version?
