Summary: The Soundtrack To 1982
Comment: The soundtrack to the 1982 teen flick FAST TIMES AT RIDGEMONT HIGH is even cooler than the movie, with various members of the Eagles flying solo and not one but TWO title songs, one by Billy Squier and the other by pro-law-enforcement hard rocker Sammy Hagar. Granted, I could do without the songs by the Go-Gos, Quarterflash, and Oingo Boingo, but overall, this is an excellent compilation of what kids were listening to in 1982.

Summary: Ain't a soundtrack without Phoebe Cates!
Comment: As other reviewers have noted, this soundtrack DOES NOT contain the song playing when Phoebe Cates takes off her bikini top. THE WHOLE POINT OF THE SOUNDTRACK. That would be "Movin' in Stereo" by The Cars.
It's like if you buy the Casino Royale soundtrack and don't get the Chris Cornell title track, or buy the Superbad soundtrack and don't get McLovin's dance track (Boogeyman). Read ALL the customer reviews, and you won't make the mistake I did in buying a soundtrack without the actual soundtrack!

Summary: Awesome, Totally Awesome!
Comment: "Fsst Times At Ridgemont High" is one of my all time favorite movies ever. I've rarely laughed harder than I did when I saw this all time 1980s' classic.
One of the main reasons I loved it was because of the soundtrack, which I found to be an awesome compilation of music from thst time period. For months I searched for it but wasn't able to find it. I finally found it last night.
I'm so glad I did. Be advised that not every song from the movie is on it, but I think that's inevitable. Besides, I already have "Kashmir", "Moving In Stereo" and "American Girl", and I can do without "We've Got The Beat". But there's some darn good stuff on here. I love Jackson Browne's "Somebody's Baby", a fine piece of early 1980s' soft rock. There's a lot of other great stuff as well, such as Joe Walsh's "Waffle Stomp", Don Henley's beautiful "Love Rules", Quarterflash's "Don't Be Lonely", Sammy Hagar's title song, Jimmy Buffet's "I Don't Know (Spicoli's Theme) and of course Oingo Boingo's "Goodbye, Goodbye".
The songs sound very good, though I'd like to see a new version since next year is the film's 25th anniversary. Still, this will do for now.
