Customer Reviews Fabulous soundtrack to a forgotten movie Perhaps it is because it consists of 2 of my favorite musical acts: Olivia Newton-John and ELO. I really enjoy listening to this soundtrack. Even though the movie itself is not highly regarded, (though I didn't think it was that bad) it does have some great music. My favorite tracks are #2 (a memorable duet featuring Olivia Newton-John and Cliff Richard), #3 (which alternates between a jazzy 1940s singer and a hard-rock band), and #9 (a great ELO number, representative of the group's fusion of classical and rock). For a movie that didn't get rave reviews, Xanadu contributed a handful of hit songs on the radio back in 1980. Needless to say, I will NOT see Xanadu on Broadway, as I think that any other version of the music will pale in comparison with this soundtrack. . Past Meets Present Almost all of the tracks on the disc are hits, both individually and as part of the total project. In this album, the artists accomplish an amazing thing: They bridge the gap between the Big Band Era and the advent of Rock & Roll. For the listener who appreciates good 80s pop music, this is an album that I strongly recommend. It's well worth your time. the cd was good no complaints. i purchased a cd from this person iand i am happy with it. .
