Customer Rating: Summary: Hot Patootie, Bless My Soul, I Really Love This Soundtrack Comment: My name's Miranda and I am 17 years old. I'm a (recent) fan of the Rocky Horror Picture Show and I wanted the soundtrack so I can learn all the songs and sing along, of course. There are two reasons I gave this soundtrack four stars instead of five:
#1: It's been commented on (multiple times) that the "Hot Dog" song was missing from the soundtrack and that that was a big let-down. I agree that it was a bit of a disappointment and if you like that song, don't expect it on the CD.
#2: It's also been commented on that there is dialogue in the songs (preceeding and following). I don't mind hearing the characters talk, but the narrator is rather annoying. His voice is boring and monotonous and it goes on for, like, a full minute every now and then before the songs actually start.
Aside from that, this CD is amazing. I love it. I highly recommend it. Customer Rating: Summary: original Rocky Horror music CD Comment: What's not to love? Excellent clarity of sound, with the sound being Tim Curry and Company! Memories are made of this! Customer Rating: Summary: Where's my Hotdog?!?!?! Comment: This would have been ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT!!! The entire soundtrack finally released on CD! Whomever compiled this left off "Planet Hotdog" and that really CHEESES ME OFF!!! Customer Rating: Summary: Close, but not quite there. Comment: This album is so close to being a worthwhile release.
I don't regret buying it, because my copy of the soundtrack was the older release on tape.
I'm very happy to have the otherwise unreleased songs on this album. The sound quality is good, but not especially noteworthy.
But the dialogue clips are insufferable. A soundtrack album is supposed to be the music, not an "album of the movie." These clips drastically decrease the likability of this recording - that and the missing end of Planet Shmanet.
There's also the plus that those silly remixes of the Time Warp are absent. And splitting up the Floor Show music sequence is a real plus. Customer Rating: Summary: PAGES WERE WATER STAINED AND WAVY Comment: I WAS EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED IN THE QUALITY OF THE BOOK OF MUSIC I RECEIVED. THE PAGES HAD OBVIOUSLY GOTTEN WET AND DRIED, SO THE BOOK WAS ALL OUT OF SHAPE. WHEN TRYING TO COPY IT TO MAKE AN EXTRA ONE FOR MY ACCOMPANIST, IT CONSTANTLY GOT STUCK IN THE MACHINE AND IT TOOK FOREVER TO GET THE COPYING DONE. THIS BOOK WAS IN TERRIBLE SHAPE AND I WASTED A LOT OF MONEY TRYING TO COPY IT OVER AND OVER AGAIN. I WILL NEVER NEVER BUY A USED COPY AGAIN AS A RESULT. I LEARNED MY LESSON, BUT THE SELLER OF THE BOOK SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES FOR MISREPRESENTATION.!!!!!!
