soundtrack’s rule!!!

September 1st, 2011 by Kenny Jones

Nothing makes a movie stand out more than having a good soundtrack. Music can have a major impact on the mood of a scene and the flow of an entire movie. Amazingly, a good soundtrack can actually rescue a bad movie.

According to CoedMagazine.com, here’s a rundown of some movies with great soundtracks:

  • Dirty Dancing
  • Pretty in Pink
  • Footloose
  • 8 Mile
  • Almost Famous
  • Dazed and Confused
  • Pulp Fiction
  • Purple Rain
  • Saturday Night Fever

My fav is Pure Country…..I always say…”The more George Strait the better!!!” If you have not watched Pure country…You must!!! its so good!!!

What movie soundtracks do you remember fondly? Do you still listen to them?

Your morning show bonus code is “soundtrack”
