Fast Times: The Soundtrack...Sort Of?
Manage episode 440200812 series 3386232
After discussing the unforgettable characters, scenes and lines (so many quotable lines!) from Fast Times at Ridgemont High in our last episode, it's time to go deeper --with a discussion of the unforgettable music that cemented it as a teen classic. But what many disappointed 80s teens learned was that some of the music that sent you directly to the mall record store after the movie was NOT included on the soundtrack! LAME. What's up with that?! We'll discuss the best and most important songs (even if they weren't included on the soundtrack), the scenes they supported, and how that music was used to help us understand the story in a deeper way. Which 70s rockers dominated this movie (despite protests from the director)? Which songs got buried (despite protests from the producer)? And which song accompanied the least satisfying sexual encounter(s) on film? Will there be tangents about Stacy's swimsuit and Damone's socks? You know it.
