I just saw this 1986 Goldie Hawn comedy. Another film I watched only for the music... ;-)

The soundtrack album features songs (most of them written/produced by Wolinski/JNH/Pat Leonard and so on) plus one cut of score, the gorgeous Molly's Theme. The film featured a lot of score (mostly synclaviers) that really cries for a release.

Why not re-issue the soundtrack album, and put all of the score on there too? Can that be done?? It would become a brilliant 70 minute album or so.

Opinions on the Wildcats music?

Here is a song from the film. I know Ahem and Thor loves this stuff: :-D

Molly's Theme is a terrific cue, with synths but very tender, that shows already JNH's gift for melody.

Indeed a great theme, but in the film it's only featured for a few seconds. It's really written for the album, which is a nice thing to do.

Had no idea about this previously unreleased B-side by JNH called Half Time. Runs only 2:24 though.
