Rating:  out of 5 stars - A So-So Soundtrack
I actually bought this soundtrack for three songs: "The Shag," "Ready to Go Steady," and "Surrender." I really cannot understand others who complain about certain songs being replaced. I'm a huge advocate for using period music in period movies and I love the new stuff in here! It sounds like it could have come right out of the 60's. What better song to open a movie called Shag than a song called "Shag"? It's fun, dance-able, and it captures that young, free, teen feeling of the 60's. It's a much, ... Read More



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Where is the real soundtrack?
I have been on the hunt all day to recreate the real soundtrack for my mom. This is one of our all time favorite movies! The list below is the real soundtrack. Those tracks with an Asterix are the ones on the so-called soundtrack. I can't find ooh ahh anywhere!

Hope this helps!

"The Shag" by Tommy Page (Opening Credits)*
"Harlem Shuffle" by Bob And Earl (Melaina Avoids Her Father)
"Saved" by La Vern Baker (The Girls Play "How Mature Are You"")*

Rating:  out of 5 stars - Explanation on Shag The "Original" Soundtrack
This soundtrack are the songs that were replaced from the VHS version (Except I have no idea where the Katie Lang song came from). That is why it is called "The Original". If you watched this movie alot on cable or had it recorded and then bought the VHS and were shocked when the opening song "The Shag" by Tommy Page was replaced with "Mama Said There'd Be Days Like This". This review is for you. When Melina leaves The Pavilion with that guy. On the cable version it's "Diddley Daddy" by Chris Issac. ... Read More



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Absolute Worst Soundtrack Ever!!!!!!!!!!
Hello Everyone,

I've been a huge fan of Shag: The Movie ever since I first saw it in the theatres back in 1989, right before I shipped off to Parris Island, S.C. for Marine Corps Boot Camp. My friends and I actually drove from Columbus, Ohio to Myrtle Beach, S.C. right before the movie came out, so it represents a special time in my life that brings back a lot of memories for me. After I saw the film, I went right out afterwards and bought the Original Soundtrack on tape. I have to say that ... Read More



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Not songs from Movie on VHS
As others have noted, these songs on the soundtrack are NOT in the VHS version of the Movie. Here's what I could tell IS in the VHS version (not in chron. order):
* Momma said there'd be days like this - Shirelles
* Stay - M. Williams & Zodiacs
* Monkey Time - Major Lance
* Ooh Aah - Jakki 0
* It will stand - The Showmen (played several times in movie; some by the "house" band Big Dan and the Sand Dollars -- Actually the Voltage Bros. who played the college/fraternity scene ... Read More
