Play It To The Bone - original soundtrack....music by various artists...blues, funk, gospel


So, for a boxing movie starring Antonio Banderas and Woody Harrelson you were expecting "Eye of the Tiger" perhaps? Surprisingly, this soundtrack doesn't feature any fist-pumping rock anthems, but rather focuses on sultry, sweaty jams and down-and-out blues that suggest these guys prefer to tango in the ring than land blows. Fishbone serve up "Shakey Ground, " a horn-punctuated groove thing. Kirk Franklin delivers his usual brand of ornate spiritualism with "Gonna Be a Lovely Day." Joe Cocker and B.B.King prefer to spit out the urban blues with plenty of polish on "Dangerous Mood." For a rougher look at the blues, John Lee Hooker's classic "Boom Boom" is presented in all its sloppy precision, while Jimmy Rogers and Linda Jackson crank out pure juke-joint fare. Moby wakes things up with the techno-laden "Machete." Alex Wurman and Jacintha slow things back down with the subtly creeping, gospel-tinged "On the Road" and the closing-time lounge tune "Here's to Life," respectively. --Rob O'Connor (Amazon review)

The Apostle...music from and inspired by the motion picture..various country and gospel artists


Robert Duvall's triple-threat (producer/writer/director) 1997 film about a fundamentalist Texas preacher whose fiery spirituality and good works are nearly unraveled by his decidedly human lusts is remarkable for a number of things--the star's non-judgmental approach to Christianity undercuts easy stereotyping and his choice in music nicely smudges the modern, artificially drawn boundaries between country and gospel. It's a collection of music that shows what rich diversity there is in music that's been largely marginalized by mainstream marketeers. Highlights include Lyle Lovett's rousing "I'm a Soldier In the Army of the Lord," "In the Garden" by Johnny Cash, and The Carter Family returning to their roots on "Waitin' On the Far Bank of Jordan". --Jerry McCulley (Amazon review)

  2. Two Coats - Patty Loveless
  3. I'm A Soldier In The Army Of The Lord - Lyle Lovett
  4. Softly & Tenderly - Rebecca Lynn Howard
  5. There Is A River - Gaither Vocal Band
  6. In The Garden - Johnny Cash

Leap Of Faith: Music From The Motion Picture Soundtrack


This was a rare occasion where Hollywood put out a movie with a great gospel soundtrack. If you haven't seen the film, you're missing out on a special treat. It's about a man who loses faith and finds it again. Steve Martin stars as a burned-out charlatan evangelist who comes to a town that hasn't had rain in a long time. Martin finds his own faith throughout the course of the plot.

The highlight is the music though. Cliff Eidelman did a great job of putting this soundtrack together. All the music is upbeat and heartening, and it will have you up and singing from the first track. Whether you are one of the faithful or not, these gospel sounds will put a smile on your face and a bright note in your day.

1. Sit Down You're Rockin' The Boat - Don Henley
2. Ready For A Miracle - Patti Labelle
3. Change In My Life - John Pagano
4. Stones Throw From Hurtin' - Wynonna
5. King Of Sin Medley: (Lord Will Make A Way (Somehow)/God Said He Would See You Through/God Will... - Angels Of Mercy
6. Pass Me Not - Lyle Lovett
7. Rain Celebration: (Jesus On The Mainline/Ready For A Mircale/It's A Highway To Heaven) - Angels Of Mercy
8. Blessed Assurance - Albertina Walker
9. Paradise By The Dashboard Light - Meat Loaf
