If film and music fans sometimes wonder why soundtracks are often little more than pastiches of past pop hits and chart flavors of the moment, it's largely due to the blockbuster success of releases like this collection from 1987's surprise Patrcik Swayze/Jennifer Grey romantic hit. The film's retro-romantic concerns came shrewdly wrapped in a (largely manufactured) dance craze conceit tailor-made for such pop chestnuts as the Ronettes' "Be My Baby," the Zodiacs' "Stay," and the Five Satins' "In the Still of the Night." Mickey and Sylvia once again argued that "Love Is Strange"--if not quite as strained as Swayze's own attempt at balladry, "She's Like the Wind." Eric Carmen's "Hungry Eyes" showcased the former Raspberries leader to good effect, but the real soundtrack sweepstakes winner here was the Jennifer Warnes/Bill Medley duet "(I've Had) The Time of My Life." That performance not only won the Best Original Song Oscar the following year, but became one of the era's most performed songs and a ubiquitous radio staple. --Jerry McCulley

Drity Dancing the orginal.......2007-01-30

A Nice Album........2007-01-26
It really feels good to have this album. I know this should come with the hits not included in the first volume but it's nice. This is a nice addition to the soundtracks collection.
Still love the movie ... still love the soundtrack.......2006-11-03
"Dirty Dancing" is still one of my favorite movies of all time. It managed to have a plot and wonderful music. You just can't sit still when this music is playing.

Twenty years of Dirty Dancing!.......2007-05-03
The Vestron film DIRTY DANCING is already twenty years old,in the aspect of production. August 14 marks the twentieth anniversary of its theatrical release. This CD features at least most of the material from the two soundtrack albums,including MORE DIRTY DANCING. The most memorable track,of course,is the Bill Medley/Jennifer Warnes duet (I'VE HAD THE)TIME OF MY LIFE. For more information,chack my review of the DIRTY DANCING soundtrack CD.

Album Description
Set against the decadent glamour and escalating danger of revolution-eve Cuba, Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights re-imagines the 1987 film phenomenon from an exciting new perspective. Havana Nights tells a timeless story of a young woman's discovery of love, sensuality and independence - but with a sizzling style and rhythm all its own. In planning this new chapter in a beloved franchise, Artisan Entertainment and Miramax Films have put together a team of creative dynamos from the worlds of film, music and dance. Among them: maverick independent producer Lawrence Bender (Pulp Fiction, Good Will Hunting); executive producer Sarah Green (Frida); Academy Award. winning screenwriter Ron Bass (Rain Man, My Best Friend's Wedding); director Guy Ferland; screenwriter Pamela Gray (A Walk on the Moon); choreographer Joanne Jansen; music industry legend Clive Davis, whose hot J Records imprint will release the soundtrack; acclaimed actor Diego Luna, a rising star following his performance in the sexy sensation Y Tu Mama Tambiin; and, in what promises to be a breakout role, gifted young actress Romola Garai (recently seen in Nicholas Nickleby). The resulting film is certain to give audiences - from newcomers to those who cherish the first Dirty Dancing - the time of their lives, and then some!
Customer Reviews:
Dirty Dancing - Havan Nights Soundtrack.......2007-04-07
Purchased for my daughter and myself after seeing the film. It is a lively mix of sultry, sensual salsa music which gets the feet moving and the singing and body going too! Exciting! Motivating! Fun! Not just for latin music lovers but for people who love life and enjoy being ALIVE!!!!!
Right up there with Otmar Liebert with Nouveau Flamenco and The Gypsy Kings to get the juices flowing and the body grooving to the music! We love it!
not good.......2007-03-13
These songs are cheesy and not even close to good latin dance music
Let the rhythm take you away.......2007-03-08
Was your foot tapping as your watched the movie? Even if you didn't like the film buy this CD and let the lating rhythm take you away.
Havana Nights.......2007-02-08
I did not care for the movie Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights but the soundtrack is AMAZING. It has everything from slow dancing to fast step dancing type of music. I would tell anyone who loves Latin music that this soundtrack is a must have.
Very Impressive.......2007-01-27
I was very impressed with this CD. When I watched the Havana Nights, the thing that captivated me was the MUSIC. This soundtrack had all of the best songs from the movie in it! My favorites:
-Dance Like This
-Satellite (both versions)
But it is hard to pick favorites, because all the songs are good. If you found yourself wanting to get up and dance when you heard the music in this movie - DEFINITELY buy the soundtrack. It'll be a great addition to any collection.
Average customer rating:
- This completes the collection of this OST!
- What I was waiting for . . .
- Almost Perfect
- And to think they almost left these songs out
- these needed to be added!

This completes the collection of this OST!.......2007-01-26
Now I finally have the second CD of this soundtrack! Even if I wasn't able to have the 2 cd album, this is more than enough. Anyway, the separate cds still contain the same number of songs. Nice to listen to it.
What I was waiting for . . ........2005-02-18
I bought the first album expecting to hear all the great music and was very disappointed. When I then saw this one in the store, I was very excited because it had all the music that I was expecting to be on the first cd. I'm so glad they made this one too. I highly recommend buying this cd if you want to hear all of the great music from the movie.
Almost Perfect.......2004-12-10
Unless you're from Brain(less)tree, Mass.you'll probably like most of the tunes on this package, the ones with real feeling. For one who was there when these songs were originally popular, I can tell you they evoke real memories of the time. They catch the early 60s' mindset. Forty years after "Cry to Me", Solomon Burke was still recording and making appearances. Why they left this song out on the initial album is beyond me. It played as Johnny and Baby first made love, a significant turn in the movie. "Some Kind of Wonderful" (not to be confused with a song by Grank Funk Railroad of the same name) was popular a couple of years before the movie's timeframe. "Wipeout" was a new song that summer, liked by all the teens. "Do you Love Me?" was a recent hit and upon its use in the movie inspired the aging Contours to go on tour again. If they had included "Hey, Baby" from 1962 (with Texas bluesman Delbert McClinton on the background blues harp)and the song apparently written for the movie and done by Bill Medley of the Righteous Brothers and Jennifer Warnes, the other songs could have been done away with. Don't let any negative review from an unhip, inhibited reviewer with a banned-in-Boston hangup influence you. This is one you'll want to have. Shortly after Baby and Johnny's summer, JFK was killed in Dallas, then came the Beatles and the end of an era.
And to think they almost left these songs out.......2003-07-12
More Dirty Dancing released in early 1988 was the better release from the Dirty Dancing Soundtrack most of the good songs in the movie are on this soundtrack not original is good but how could they leave out these jewels. Everybody who loves this movie should have both albums.
these needed to be added!.......2003-01-08
if these songs weren't added all together on another soundtrack, that would've been a travesty! the movie is full of great songs and it was crazy that these weren't on the first soundtrack... maybe they weren't expecting it to do so well. People who don't even like the movie so much seem to love the soundtrack anyway

Customer Reviews:
Better Than the Original.......2006-07-19
"Ultimate Dirty Dancing" is what the Dirty Dancing soundtrack should have ALWAYS been: ON A SINGLE CD!!! I had both the original soundtrack recording AND "More Dirty Dancing", but they were starting to show the effects of age and over-playing. The remastered soundtrack sounds just as amazing and enjoyable as it did when I first saw the film on its' opening day so many years ago. This is a perfect companion to the DVD and I recommend BOTH to anyone who loves the movie!
The Ultimate Dirty Dancing.......2006-03-18
I loved this movie the moment I first saw it and I loved the soundtrack even more. The great thing about this CD is it has every last song on it, from beginning to end. Including Kellermans anthem and the instermental part of "I've had the time of my life".
Ultimate Dirty Dancing: Ultimate to your Collection.......2006-01-18
I purchased this album in 2005, lost it in Hurricane Katrina, but I loved it so much that I want to buy it again. If you enjoyed Dirty Dancing and are a fan of what I like to call "new-age oldies" from the 60's and 70's, I encourage you to buy this collection. These are timeless classics you can dance and daydream to.. Your feet are gonna move and your mind is gonna flutter! This is essential to a collection of related genres. Generations to come are going to watch and love Dirty Dancing.. I don't think the film, or the music that gave it such heat, is ever going to sizzle out.
Sony/BMG. Come on, it could be better........2006-01-04
O.k fine, better than the original CD from 1987. But why is not included the Dance Mix of the song 'Yes' by Merry Clayton ?, which is mixed by John 'Jellybean' Benitez and is extremely hard to find on CD. Sony/BMG Great Job Guys!!!...as usual something is missing.
Great CD-it's like watching the movie!!.......2005-08-19
This is the ONLY Dirty Dancing CD that has all the songs from the hit movie. An added bonus is they are sequenced in the order that they appear in the film. So if you are a big fan of the movie, just listening to the music you can remember each scene. In all there are 26 wonderful tracks. Great edition to any Dirty Dancing collection and a must have to go with the new Ultimate Edition DVD. The version I have is the 'Hyper CD' which has some extra features that are accessed with your computer's DVD player.

Feel like dancing?.......2001-04-21
No one can deny that Dirty Dancing contained great music that really made you want get up and have some fun. This colledtion combines both soundtrack albums released (Dirty Dancing / More Dirty Dancing) with a few bonus tracks previously not available and a small booklet.
Of the bonus tracks, only the extended movie version of "Time Of My Life" is worth much intrest. It's a bit odd that the radio version isn't included as well, but it is nice to hear the full length song for once. The other bonus tracks are instrumental versions of "Time Of My Life" that are actually excerpts from the score instead of full length dubs. One runs 41 seconds, the other 58 seconds. My one real gripe with the set is that the total running time of both CD's is just about 75 minutes. That's just enough to fit on one disc and should have been done to save the consumer some money. Also it would've been nice to have the songs presented in the order they appeared in the film.
The discs are stored in the front and back flaps of a hard bound CD book with a 24 page booklet between them. The booklet has many stills from the film (most retouched through a colored filter) and a few behind the scenes shots as well. I would've liked to see a directors note or an overview of the "Dirty Dancing" phenomonon, but overall the packaging is done very well and only enhaces the feel of a special collectors item.
I've awarded four stars because there's just not enough offered for someone who already owns both soundtracks and is not a manic fan of the film like myself. There are minor things that could have been done (ie; putting all tracks on one disc in the films order of appearance, including both versions of "Time Of My Life") that would've made the "Collectors Edition" something really special. However this is the perfect set for those that don't already own both Dirty Dancing soundtracks. It's a great collection of music that makes great beach music and is sure to liven up parties or a bad day. If you don't have it yet, you MUST get it now.
Dirty Dancing Rocks!.......2000-11-11
Dirty Dancing is my all-time favorite movie. Hungry Eyes and I Had The Time of My Life are my favorite songs on the album and I practicaly know every word of the songs.. Unfortunly I don't have the box set.

Couldn't be better!.......2000-10-21
"Dirty Dancing" is an okay movie, but the soundtrack is awesome! The songs "Be my Baby", "Hungry Eyes", and "She's like the Wind" are my favorites. They are great to listen to if you're having a bad day. If you want to buy a great CD, I recommend buying this one. It's fabulous!

This is definitely the ultimate cd. It is my best purchase to date. The combination of music is immaculate. My favourites are "Some Kinda Wonderful", "Cry to Me" and "Yes". This music rocks the soul. You just gotta to sing and dance when its playing. For those of you in love, looking for love or just love the great music of the 80's this is the cd for you. I have an eight year old niece that just loves this collection. I have the words to each song printed and boy you should hear us sing. So just sit back and allow the music to flow.
The best movie with the best soundtrack!.......1999-12-09
Dirty Dancing is my all time favorite movie. It has been my inspiration for dancing and acting, ever since I was a little girl. I still enjoy watching the movie, and singing and dancing along with the characters and the songs. This would be a great gift, for anyone you know, who enjoys the movie, and it's songs.

Carmen Shines.......2001-09-10
The Dirty Dancing Live in Concert CD delivers an exciting mix of pop and rock selections from the film of the same name. Singer-songwriter Eric Carmen is excellent in his presentation of Hungry Eyes, Make Me Lose Control and Almost Paradise. His live performance is stunning and his voice is top-notch. The other performers, including Merry Clayton and Bill Medley also do a fine job.
Wonderful.......1998-11-26
Recorded Live at The Greek Theatre, this album is a hidden jewel. Merry Clayton (who sang backup on the Rolling Stones' Gimme Shelter) is a dynamic singer and performer. The songs 'Overload' and "Steamroller Blues' are real, from the heart, rockers. Also included in this album is the song 'Cry to me', from the scene in the cabin when the two main characters first make love in the movie. All music is played by "The Contours", the original Dirty Dancin' band. Eric Carmen's 3 best songs ever, 'Make Me Lose Control', 'Almost Paradise', and 'Hungry Eyes' have that extra "live" excitement to them. This is a great album and a hidden jewel!!! Enjoy!!!
