Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - good choice
i got this as a cassette tape originally when it first came out about 20 years ago--that has been lost, i guess. thought about it about a month ago and got the cd. it's just as good as i remembered--great example of this type of music. all tracks are good to listen to.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Good blues tunes
Ry Cooder and Steve Vai are great in this particular venue. The story line is somewhat hokey, but the music is tops!!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Crossroads
The music is much better than the acting in this film. Ry Cooder's production of classic blues tunes remains one of my favorites today. The Karate Kid steps up to the plate but his performance is mediocore yet saleable. A great story, looking for Robert Johnson's lost tracks, a rendeveouz with the devil, a young love affair and a quest for redempetion make this film very likeable. It is, however, the music that sets it apart. If you are a fan of R. Johnson a lover of the blues then it's a must see/listen.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - No Crossroads Duel, No Problem
I see that most of the reviewers for this record are disappointed that the Cooder-Vai duel didn't appear on the soundtrack album. That's understandable. But for me, that was better experienced as video. Personally I think the high point of the soundtrack, and the movie for that matter, was the electric guitar bottleneck piece "Feelin' Bad Blues". It is fantastic. It sounds like the guitar may be accompanied by a hammer dulcimer toward the end. I played this for a young guy I work with who is a heavy metal fan and is just discovering the blues. He got wide-eyed.
