Pretty Woman - Soundtrack

 

It’s pretty easy to see why this album made it to number 1.  It sort of feels like the 90s equivalent of a playlist.  The big hits were Go West (King of Wishful Thinking) and Roxette (It Must Have Been Love).  There really isn’t much to say about this album.  Some Film sound tracks are works of art in themselves (I’m thinking about the Pulp Fiction soundtrack by Tarantino and the Blade Runner Soundtrack) , but mostly they are a cash grab. This feels more like it fits in the second category.  I can see that people might put it on for a bit of early 90s nostalgia, but it’s no great work of art.
