ABOUT THE DIRTY DANCING SOUNDTRACK
A time-capsule twice over: at once, it is both an incredible collection of ’60s soul and pop hits (Otis Redding, The Ronnettes, The Drifters, The Shirelles) and, now-nostalgic ’80s pop (Eric Carmen’s “Hungry Eyes”, “Yes” by Mary Clayton, and maybe even the best song on the album “She’s Like The Wind” by the film’s star Patrick Swayze). Of course, it is buoyed by one of the most instantly recognizable and legendary songs of all time – the Academy Award® Winning song “(I’ve Had) The Time of My Life” – and that’s not even half of the music on this two disc behemoth of a collection.
It’s hard to overstate how colossal this album and movie were. And yet, thirty-five years later, some of us at Mondo didn’t even have copies of it in our collection. So we decided to make some for ourselves … and hopefully you as well.
This 2XLP features the soundtrack albums “Dirty Dancing” and “More Dirty Dancing” in one complete set, re-mastered for the 35th anniversary, and housed in a numbered sleeve, pressed on color vinyl, limited to just 1987 copies.
