I also really really really love the title track, so incredibly gorgeous.

Yeah, this is my runner up pick.

Title track for me

or something, Monday, 15 April 2019 16:39 (five years ago) link

Likewise. A perfect song.

It's dreadful and EW&F are barely in it.

zama roma ding dong (Eric H.), Monday, 15 April 2019 18:14 (five years ago) link

Haha, yeah, refusing to review the movie and instead just doing a track-by-track of the soundtrack was my only available option.

Like, this is just a major, major blind spot for ILM.

agreed. this is the kinda stuff i was aiming for with this thread:

lush post-1970 soul music from motown / tamala / atlantic is the best shit ever

probably "see the light" because it's the weirdest, i'm more of a fan of their debut!

Jaki Liebowitz (rushomancy), Tuesday, 16 April 2019 14:07 (five years ago) link

Yeah, "See the Light" is really fascinating.

Have not heard all the tracks, but the title track has always been a favorite. Puts my troubled mind at ease.

damn, reasons is pretty excellent too, isn't it?

The falsetto's too intense for me -- like a guitar solo -- but, wow, what a performance.

Great album. One of their many classics.

It has to be the title track for me. Such a gorgeous song and probably my favourite track of theirs.

The wall of horns in this is really, really good:

the vaguely creepy backwards-sounding interlude that pops up multiple times	3

Hah, but seriously, that thing sucks me in every time.

That was my response to that post! I have the album queued up already.
