Teasing the Korean Posted May 7, 2009 Report Posted May 7, 2009 The MGM soundtrack album of the wonderfully bad movie I watched this past weekend: Get Yourself a College Girl. I decided that I had to have it, since a couple of the best pieces of music in the movie, like "Sweet Rain" by Stan Getz with Gary Burton and "The Sermon" by Jimmy Smith, have inane dialogue over and through them. The lyrics to the title song (sung my Mary Ann Mobley) are so bad that they could be by Spinal Tap: Get yourself a college girl: She knows how to love, And how to live, And how to love.... And the album reminds me that although the Dave Clark Five got first billing, their demise was no great loss. But The Animals were a tough band! They took their Chuck Berry/John Lee Hooker sources and added a real bad-ass, British working class swagger. Nice! "Sweet Rain" is on right now. Damn! Who is the main composer, or is it a various artists thing? Quote

jeffcrom Posted May 8, 2009 Report Posted May 8, 2009 Who is the main composer, or is it a various artists thing? Fred Karger & Sidney Miller wrote the title song and presumably the musical cues for the film, none of which are on the album. The album is a various artists compilation, which fits the movie - a thin plot as an excuse for a whole bunch of music and dancing. Quote
