Summary: Before Harrison, Dylan and McCartney there was Newton-John
Comment: Let's just start by saying that I was buying the Idle Race 2-cd set and realized that I now had just about everything Jeff Lynne had ever recorded......EXCEPT FOR XANADU!
How could I resist?
Anyway, I am not going to waste too much space on a Xanadu review. A few of my (random) thoughts:
-> This CD confirms my theory that ELO was at least better than Olivia Newton-John (as for my assertion that ELO was better than Abba, we'll have to wait for another day). The ELO half of the CD is WAY BETTER! Actually, the only ONJ track I was able to get through was MAGIC, and I probably won't even listen to that one again for quite a while. Once every 25 years is often enough for me.
-> ALL OVER THE WORLD is quite possibly the best Motown rip-off ELO (or anyone else for that matter) ever pulled off. Couldn't they have just done a cover of HEATWAVE or DANCING IN THE STREETS instead?
-> I'M ALIVE is still annoying.
-> The two ELO non-singles (THE FALL and DON'T WALK AWAY) are actually really good, although the sequence of the two songs should be reversed, since the "It's a lie" chorus in THE FALL sounds a little bit too much like "I'm alive."
-> The title track is probably the best thing Olivia ever did. How does Jeff Lynne do it?
Finally, I think it is also pretty funny that, before working with his idols (Roy Orbison, The Beatles, Bob Dylan, etc.), Jeff Lynne had to do a duet with Olivia Newton-John. Talk about paying your dues.
I guess I did waste a fair amount of space there. Sorry about that.

Summary: Xanadu CD
Comment: I love the music from the movie. ELO has some of their best songs in this CD. It is wonderful!!!!!

Summary: Call me goofy
Comment: Call me goofy but I so enjoyed this CD. I've played it quite a few times since I purchased it. I have the original vinyl albumn around here somewhere but forgot all about it until I was wandering around on Amazon and saw this. I haven't hear Cliff Richards in years. Is he still alive? I was sorry that there were so few songs, I wanted to hear more. I usually land up listening to it twice each time I play it. I also enjoyed the movie because it was so stupid. Roller skating muses anyone? Now I'm in the mood to go see the broadway production. I wonder how that cast albumn will be. Maybe Amazon should offer a twin pack with both versions. Will anyone be able to compete with Olivia Newton-John?

Summary: Still Wanting the Complete Soundtrack
Comment: With the recent reissue of the DVD, I was hoping the complete soundtrack would be offered in conjunction with the movie -- no such luck. It's odd because "Drum Dreams," "Fool Country," and "You Made Me Love You" were all issued as B-sides, so the music IS available. And I always thought it would be cool to have the full-length mix of the title song as seen in the movie. Oh well, the original album still has plenty of merits.

Summary: A memory from my childhood
Comment: I saw Xanadu the movie when I was 10, and I thought it was wonderful. OK, I know that the critics didn't agree, but hey, I was 10! I think I actually saw it twice in the theaters. And at some point shortly thereafter, I got the record. Olivia Newton John on one side, and ELO on the other. (Yes children, old people records were two sided.) I think I wore it out!
I ordered this from Amazon last weekend and have listened to it a dozen times so far. The music is just fun! It's happy and cheerful, and it reminds me of my childhood. I love it.
