Dazed And Confused (1993 Film) [Soundtrack]

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Tellingly, director Richard Linklatter's Dazed and Confused was released 20 years after American Grafitti and offers a similar story of troubled young personalities lurking beneath an oversaturated pop culture veneer. Like Lucas before him, Linklatter clearly relishes that gloss and wields it like an ironic chainsaw. His soundtrack is a raucous, authentic collection of mid-70's radio fare, be it sharp-edged pop (Sweet, the vastly underrated Rick Derringer), nascent metal (Black Sabbath, Deep Purple) and out-and-out hard cheese (Foghat, Black Oak Arkansas). Dazed and Confused is the real sound of 70's teenage America. --Jerry McCulley

5 out of 5 stars Flashback.......2007-03-28

Loved the CD. The music is a much fun as it was the first time I enjoyed it!

4 out of 5 stars Dazed and Confused soundtrack.......2007-03-26

I loved the movie and I love the soundtrack. Contains all those songs from the 1970s that were very "feel good". Also highly recommended is the companion CD which contains more songs that this one couldn't fit. Recommend both of them.

1 out of 5 stars "DAZED AND CONFUSED ABOUT THE ADVERTISING".......2007-03-15

I was looking to get the DVD of DAZED AND CONFUSED but got the CD. When it was advertised on the AMAZON website it led me to believe that it was a DVD as you see it above. (1993 Film) I had to return it and my expense. Very disappointing transaction with AMAZON. Threfore, i am not impressed.

5 out of 5 stars Great soundtrack!.......2006-11-03

I've owned this terrific CD since waaaay back in 1993 & have lost my numerous copies purchased since then to dear friends & family who come to adore this soundtrack once they've heard it. It's full of great middle & late '70s tunes that if you were alive & aware of hit rock n roll music then, you will remember these tunes with joy & may even sing along to them too. This CD even has "Cherry Bomb" by the Runaways (Joan Jett & Lita Ford's band before they went solo) which is not an easy tune to find in complitations. If you liked the non-disco & non-"AM Gold" sounds of the 70's then this is your next CD purchase! : D The tunes range from Black Sabbath's Paranoid, to Foghat's Slow Ride to the ever popular rock anthem Kiss' Rock & Roll All Night. I love this CD,when I play it the songs take me right back to being a pre-teen/teenager hanging out with the older kids in the shag-van, the smell of ganja wafting around, real rock n roll blaring from the speakers, Ditto jeans, halter tops, Friday nights at the roller skating rink & Pop-rocks! LOL

4 out of 5 stars Inhale the 70s All Over Again.......2006-10-30

I was the stereotypical 70s kid. I had long, feathered blonde hair that blew freely in the wind, I wore Hang Ten T-shirts and cut off Levi jeans shorts and spent a lot of time listening to the music of Ted Nugent, Black Sabbath, and the Runaways. Like most people reviewing this collection, it threw me back to that time where everything was kind of just 'out there'. I don't know what that really means, I just get this feeling that a lot of the music that I hear on the radio today has no real spirit...no soul...no backbone. They might as well be singing, "Oh yeah, gimme a contract and gimme lots of money, so I can be on 'Cribs' and show the world my honey..."

Yeah. Exactly. It is that lame.

Even as I entered into High School in late 1979, I could tell that music was changing and although there were a few standouts, the Police, for example, loud and crazy rock 'n roll went through a period of hiding out. It wasn't until the 'Grunge Era' of the early 90s that slapped people in the face and said, "We're back...burn your Depeche Mode albums and listen to some real rock 'n roll..."

By that time, even though I really liked Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Stone Temple Pilots, etc. I had gotten into jazz and funk and soul music, but whenever I reached for 'classic rock', I always reached for my albums of the 70s. The kind of the stuff on this CD. And I think about those days that were such a mixture of saddness and gladness and combustible hormones. I think about how if just one single thing were different, how my whole life would've been different. Yeah, okay...you got me...I "inhaled"... but I inhaled life...all of life and I'm glad that I am who I am today because of the stuff that moved me in the past...

So buy this great soundtrack and inhale some pretty cool music and exhale a feeling that you survived that great and crazy time known as the 70s. Oh, and by the way, the only reason I'm giving it four stars and not five is because there are no Alman Brothers on this thing...c'mon, dude, the Alman Brothers helped make the 70s...

Have a nice day.

Peace & Blessings

4 out of 5 stars Even More Dazed and Confused.......2007-03-26

If you loved the Dazed and Confused soundtrack, you'll love this one too. It contains all those songs that they couldn't fit on the first soundtrack. Great CD.

5 out of 5 stars Where Is Bob.......2006-07-06

This soundtrack is absolutly amazing...
I just have one question abou it...
Where is "Hurricane" by Bob Dylan?

4 out of 5 stars Better Than the First!.......2006-06-12

I actually like this one better than the first release. It's a great, eclectic mix of FM radio hits from the golden age of FM radio. (I was 15 in the summer of 1976, so maybe I'm a little biased.)

All of these songs were part of the soundtrack of my life, played at suburban basement make-out parties and blasted from the windows of gas-guzzling old American cars. How I wished I could have grown a mustache like the ones sported by Foghat!

5 out of 5 stars Another excellent soundtrack for a great movie!.......2006-03-23

"Dazed and Confused" is a film that unfortunately bombed at the box office when it was in theatres. Fortunately, it has since become a cult classic, and one of the definitive "party" flicks. It helped jump start the careers of the film's soon-to-be stars, such as: Ben Affleck, Parker Posey, Matthew McConaughey, Rory Cochrane, Jason London, and Milla Jovovich, to name a few. I first saw "Dazed" when I was 15. I heard how great of a film it was, so of course I decided to check it out. By the end of my first viewing, I was hooked. I became obsessed with the movie, and have seen it so many times that I've lost count, and it's still fresh and hilarious with every viewing (which is rare for a film)! It has become one of my favorite movies of all time, as well.

Anyway, just like the film's first soundtrack (simply titled "Dazed And Confused"), this soundtrack has excellent songs, but to me, the standouts are: "No More Mr. Nice Guy" by Alice Cooper (awesome hard rocker, which is excellently used in the film), "Do You Feel Like We Do?" by Peter Frampton (an awesome rocker that features the infamous "talkbox"), "I Just Want To Make Love To You" by Foghat (a cool rocker that you'll want to bang your head to), and "Free Ride" by The Edgar Winter Group (definitely a song to crank while cruising with your friends). As I said in my review for the film's other soundtrack, the film's opening track, "Sweet Emotion" by Aerosmith, and Bob Dylan's "Hurricane" are nowhere to be found on either of the film's soundtracks.

3 out of 5 stars Good,but not as good as the first one.......2004-06-21

Maybe I like "Volume I" a lot better because it came out first,but these songs just don't rock like the ones that are featured on the first soundtrack. A major flaw is that Linklater put another,DREADFUL Black Oak Arkansas song, "Lord Have Mercey on My Soul" on this companion soundtrack. The songs that REALLY standout & rock are: "No More Mr. Nice Guy"(Alice Cooper); "Never Been Any Reason"(Head East); "Balinese"(ZZ Top); "I Just Wanna Make Love To You"(Foghat); and "Show Me The Way" & "Do You Feel Like We Do" (both by Peter Frampton). Although "Volume II" is less in quality,I couldn't see not having it in my collection,just to go along with the first one.

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Soothing sounds of Led Zeppelin..........2005-03-01

Before I write my review, I thought you would like to know that I have not had a chance to listen to "Kashmir: The Symphonic Led Zeppelin". Keep that in mind if you are trying to decide between the two.

I think I would consider myself an average Led Zeppelin fan. I appreciate their music, and I listen to them every so often. I'm not one of the hardcore Zeppelin fans, so you might not appreciate this tribute as much as I do. I would have to say that this tribute is very well done, and a lot of time and effort was put into making it. The strings are pretty much in sync with the original songs, and just a few seconds into the song, you'll be able to tell what it is. I'm not going to go through a list of songs and tell you what I think of them, but I will say that I think the best one is "Ten Years Gone." This album - or albums, I should say - are great if you're looking for a soothing and relaxing version of some of the great Led Zeppelin songs. Though, I must say that you will only appreciate the tribute if you know the songs themselves, because if you don't then the song just might get repetetive. I'm a fan of the whole String Quartet Tribute thing, and I'd have to say that this is one of the best ones I've heard so far.

2 out of 5 stars Not my cup of tea.......2003-11-18

For some reason this CD just sounded really corney to me. I was really dissapointed. Your opinion may differ but I would recommend that if you are looking for a classical Zeppelin CD you get Kashmir instead. It is cheaper and shines a new light on some awsome songs rather than butchering them.

4 out of 5 stars Finally, Led Zeppelin Done Well in Strings........2003-02-20

A few of the selections are questionable for arrangment for a string section. I mean, Whole Lotta Love? Dazed and Confused? Give me a break. They could have replaced those poor choices with a number of other possibilities.

Nevertheless, it is the first attempt of it's kind, and the songs that are suitable are gorgeously performed.

Led Zeppelin's gifts for creating melodies and knowledge of music theory become more obvious in these classical performances.

It's a double CD so it has lots of songs!

      Product Description

      "Take No Prisoners" is HSQ's future, featuring 12 new recordings of driving rock - from Zeppelin's "Heartbreaker" to the Stones "Paint It Black" to the Cranberries "Zombie," the original rock string quartet pulls no punches here. On this CD, HSQ has risen to the pinnacle of its "rock-dom." It is aggressive, pounding, virtuosic, yet not without its palate cleansing moments of tenderness. HSQ shows its range here - broad and horizontal through a myriad of epxressions to flagrant and vertical through a temporal range of styles. If this is for you, listen to it loud or don't bother. Remember, you can always get that other string quartet off the shelf and listen to some Haydn (not a disparaging comment -he's HSQ's mentor)
