I LOVE this movie and had the soundtrack on order at my local A&B Sound for months, until they fessed up that it was not available. My husband found a copy - issued by Rhino Records, I believe - but also put together one from scratch for me before that. We actually got into Josie Cotton from that soundtrack and now have a bunch of her albums (some signed by her - she always includes sweet notes).
Nic Cage was unknown when this was released but he stuck out, as in "who IS this guy??"
This movie is up there with "Better Off Dead" for me as a classic under-viewed 80s movie.
The soundtrack is better than the movie.
One of the best of the era.
I picked this up on laserdisc last fall. A fun time capsule of the California valley culture.
