 Customer Reviews: Rating:  Date: 2008-07-09 Not the Beatles, but ....... Having seen the movie, and being a Beatle's fan, I can see the animosity of people criticizing both the soundtrack and the film. However, this cover of Beatle's music is no worse than the recent covers done in "Across The Universe". Just remember a cover is a cover. There are some songs that didn't work, but for the most part, the Bee Gees and Peter Frampton did very well. I enjoyed Robin Gibb's cover of "Oh Darling" (which plays the full version on the album, but gets cut in the movie for the scene to work) and George Burns' rendition of "Fixing A Hole" (despite the album's editor editting the final 30 second sequence from the song, the full version is in the movie).
The rest of the album is also outstanding with Aerosmith's cover of "Come Together" and Earth, Wind, & Fire's version of "Got To Get You Into My Life". Billy Preston's cover of "Get Back" is also worth it's weight. I recommend this CD set on it's cover value and it's placement in pop culture history. Rating:  Date: 2008-05-11 Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band This CD is wonderful. It is so hard to find soundtracks that not only have every song but are sung by the singer in the movie. If you loved the movie you will want to add this CD to your collection Rating:  Date: 2008-04-16 Beatles Covers (Written by Karen T. Fahel) I enjoyed the movie, but I acknowledge that not a lot of people do. However, the soundtrack is fun to listen to. The entire album is made up of Beatles covers done by the cast. Peter Frampton and the Bee Gees make up a large percentage of the songs, but the rest of the cast have theirs, too.
While some are not exactly great (George Burns "Fixing a Hole" and the people playing Mr. & Mrs. Fields doing "She's Leaving Home") quite a few are wonderful. Billy Preston totally grooves with "Get Back", Alice Cooper adds his distinctive touch to "Because", and the highlight is the spectacular, totally rockin' "Come Together" by Aerosmith.
Give it a listen; it's fun, at least. Rating:  Date: 2008-03-14 What If the Beatles Were Born in a Discotheque? This album is meant to be fun. The film is more than painful to watch, but the music is easier to handle. I enjoy this soundtrack for it's obscure take on the Beatles. From the Bee Gees to Peter Frampton, Steve Martin to George Burns, it takes a open mind to accept these renditions, but when you hear these renditions you have that much more respect for the Beatles' song writing. It's interesting to note that George Martin did take part in this recording. Either you like it or you don't. I would recommend renting the video or listening to the clips above. Rating:  Date: 2008-02-25 sgt. Peppers CD only Great CD, rapid response.
Highly Recommended to any one who loves the Beatles and BeeGees!
Hats off to Peter Framton for his vocals, they are wonderful!
Kids who loved "Sgt. Peppers" in the late '70s, or early '80's,
Here we are! This is it!
Thank you for time-traveling me back, and all others,
