Original Soundtrack
13 Going on 30 -- a romantic comedy about a misfit teen in 1987 who turns into a glamorous, successful adult in 2004 seemingly overnight -- has a soundtrack that, appropriately enough, features 13 songs that span the '80s to the 2000s. The album plays a little fast and loose with what a 13-year-old girl in 1987 would've actually listened to; three ...

Like, Omigod! The '80s Pop Culture Box (Totally)

by
Various Artists
Rock criticism has two schools of thought regarding the '80s. One complains that it was all crass, commercial crap, breathing a sigh of relief that we made it through that dreck (thanks to IRS, SST, jangle pop, college rock, and hardcore punk, of course). The other celebrates the album as "cheesy" fun, full of naïve, silly singles; bad haircuts; ...

Rick Springfield
Rick Springfield deserves better than being written off as nothing more than a slight teen idol, as he so frequently is. Of course, it's easy to see why he's been pegged as nothing more than teenybopper fodder. He had pinup good looks, which led him to a starring role as Dr. Noah Drake on the soap opera General Hospital, which was his regular gig ...

by
Various Artists
The compilers of the popular and timely Now series have done a much better job with the 18th volume when compared to the 17th, since most of the songs here had major chart presence and fairly represent the artists. The series has been guilty more than once of bypassing artists' initial-impact hits in favor of inferior, out-of-character, less ...

Rick Springfield
Rick Springfield contributed to some of the most congenial sounding pop that braced radio throughout the 1980s. With 17 singles gracing the Top 40 charts, it was evident that both his charming persona and his hook-induced choruses led to his successful ten-year stint. While his music is lyrical fluff, it's the friendly guitar riffs and contagious ...

The first volume of the Boogie Nights soundtrack was loaded with great songs -- all of which were featured in the movie, which is a rare thing in Hollywood in the '90s -- but it happened to leave just as many good songs behind. Boogie Nights, Vol. 2 corrects that problem by rounding up many of the best songs from the movie that were not included ...

Rhino does it again with this five-disc set chronicling the top hits from the first half of the '80s (each disc was originally released separately). And what a strange time it was: while disco gasped for air and new wave was on the rise, the new face of pop made its bloated and steely debut. Hear how veterans like Diana Ross ("Upside Down") and ...
