Various Artists - The Full Monty: Music From The Motion Picture Soundtrack

The soundtrack to the best movie ever made about strippers nods to the second-best, with a new version of Irene Cara's theme song from Flashdance, and to another famous cinematic striptease, with Tom Jones's cover of "You Can Leave Your Hat On." The bulk of the score, though, consists of songs that are more or less real-world stripper classics. It's hard to hear Hot Chocolate full blast and not bump and grind at least a little. Trivia note: Anne Dudley, who wrote the movie's incidental music (two pieces are included here), used to be in the Art of Noise. --Douglas Wolk Amazon.com

Movie soundtracks

I like this music on a limited basis. I've purchased several movie sound tracks recently and enjoy them as I drive my car. August 30, 2007

Get ready to bare all!

This is an awesome CD! I bought it for the Tom Jones version of "You Can Leave Your Hat On". I love dancing along with (almost) all of these songs!! September 5, 2006

kinda hard NOT to bump 'n grind to this

Whenever I have this CD playing I have to be careful that my teenagers aren't around because it embarrasses them to death to see me bumping and grinding in the kitchen while cooking their dinner. Yes, it's that kind of CD. I'm not into stripping myself but this album certainly makes me want to move. The songs are mostly all oldies from the 70s and 80s but the sort that you can listen to (and holler with) again and again (excepting The Zodiac, which really does remind you of 1960s England). I take exception to others' reviews of Tom Jones remake of "You Can Leave Your Hat On." I originally bought this soundtrack for that song alone and think it surpasses the original. I've seen the movie three times and play this soundtrack whenever I need a lift or am feeling slightly wild. It's a lot of fun. July 11, 2006

A soundtrack with staying power

I enjoyed the movie a lot the one time I saw it. I have owned and enjoyed The Full Monty soundtrack CD for years now.

Almost every track on this CD gets my feet moving, whether to walk, run or dance! I didn't burn "The Zodiac" or "The Lunchbox Has Landed" into my iTunes playlist, but otherwise this is a collection of keepers.

Under the influence of the soundtrack CD I may even rent the DVD and experience the movie again. March 27, 2006

This soundtrack is "Hot Stuff".

The truth is, this is a great disc to have if it's your favorite movie, or if you just really love to strip. Most of these tracks are well known, and each one is more fun to dance to than the last. There's a few oddballs here, but most of it's oldies/disco era tunes, and all likely to put a smile on your face, and a jump in your step. My favorites are "You Sexy Thing", "Land Of 1000 Dances", and "Rock N' Roll, Part 2". Of Course it's hard not to like "Hot Stuff" and the "Flashdance" tracks too. After this, all you need is a good stereo and a stripper's pole. April 7, 2004
