I've never seen this movie, but I'm aware of the soundtrack in that it was a double-album that has never been released on CD. Alice Cooper re-recorded a couple of his songs for this movie--"Road Rats" and "Pain"; the alternate version of "Pain" has never shown up on CD. Any other rarities on this album? Here's the track list, courtesy of http://www.discogs.com/Various-Roadie-O ... se/1759132 :

This movie is very, very cheesy, but it's also fun. I watched the DVD just a couple of months ago.

Blondie's cover of "Ring of Fire" is something of a rarity, but it did show up on at least one of their comps.
