Was this one on Renny's list? If not, it should be... pretty sure this is the first release on CD.
no, it was not...and i don;t know why it wasn't, i guess that it has been so long i just forgot about it.
the robbie robertson song makes it worth the purchase, the rest is all a very nice bonus.
jay will know better than me, but i think this robertson song was only on this and never appeared anywhere else, as for the other tunes, i am not really sure if there are any totally unique songs to this soundtrack, i know that 'wonderful remark" was until morrison put it on his greatest hits CD.

I think Ric Ocasek's "Steal The Night" is otherwise unavailable, and the included version of "'Tain't Nobody's Bizness (If I Do)" was recorded by B.B. King and Robbie Robertson specifically for this album.

yes, TK, the Ric Ocasek song is otherwise unavailable - you are correct. Ric has a number of OST tracks and rarities i wish would be compiled and released. hell, just do some remasters/reissues of the solo catalog and tack-on those for bonus material... i'd buy them all JUST for the bonus tracks alone.

Agree with other posts that this was a great movie. Who knew that Jerry Lewis had acting chops like these? And that Sandra Bernhard had such a great physique? Finally, De Niro - well, he was (and is) a force of nature as an actor.
Agree also that this is a fabulous soundtrack - I have it as a cassette. To me, the sleeper track is Rickie Lee Jones singing the Tom Waits composition "Rainbow Sleeves."

It's been a long time since I've seen it. Was Swamp used in the movie?
As best I can recall it's heard very briefly in the background during a street scene, maybe from a passing car radio or something like that. It's crazy sometimes how minimally a song will be used just to get it on a soundtrack.
Speaking of which, is the multi-artist soundtrack of new/unreleased tracks a dying concept? Seems like there were a ton of these in the past but the last one I remember hearing anything about was The Hunger Games. Then again, maybe I'm just indifferent these days.
