Editorial Reviews

Motown just keeps packaging and repackaging those classic '60s hits. But whether you're looking for a souvenir of Lawrence Kasdan's movie or just another Motown sampler, you could do a lot worse than the Big Chill soundtrack --which also throws in a dab of Three Dog Night ("Joy to the World") and Aretha Franklin ("(You Make Me Feel Like a) Natural Woman") and even Procul Harum ("Whiter Shade of Pale"). Many of the choices are pretty obvious--Marvin Gaye's "Heard it Through the Grapevine," Smokey Robinson and the Miracles' "My Girl"... but they are great songs. And a few aren't quite so overexposed, like the Temptations' "Ain't Too Proud to Beg" or the CD bonus track of the Marvelettes' "Too Many Fish in the Sea." Nothing chilly about these tracks. --Jim Emerson

5 out of 5 stars answer to question.......2003-10-18

The song is by the band and its called the weight.

5 out of 5 stars i was wondering..........2003-07-12

the song with the words 'take a load off danny', which one is it?? it's driving me crazy, i can't figure it out. please help!

4 out of 5 stars Good Soundtrack.......2002-10-25

A fine classic rock comp if that's your thing, although, if that is your thing you probably have all these tracks already. Of course you might need
an instant `mix tape'.

5 out of 5 stars Movie and Soundtrack are just perfect!.......1999-07-15

The Bostonian reviewing the CD first just brings it to the point. Even here in Germany the movie has its fan community and the score just keeps you thinking of it in the car or whereever you listen.

5 out of 5 stars A perfect soundtrack for a perfect movie!.......1998-09-19

I don't know how many times I've seen The Big Chill to date - it just makes me feel good everytime I see it, and it has become like an old friend. The soundtrack is the same way. Great old tunes that make you smile, snap your fingers, dance a little. I always pull out the cd when I need a little cheering & it works everytime. A must for anyone who loves Motown.
