The Boat That Rocked: Movie Soundtrack
~ Release by Various Artists (see all versions of this release, 4 available)
Annotation
LINER NOTES:
These are some of my favourite pop songs and I hope they will bring you pleasure. I don't buy the argument, ever, that the best days are done - there are lots of fantastic songs around now - but there certainly were a lot of great songs in the 60s, and this is just a taster of them. When we made The Boat That Rocked, every day, as we bobbed around in the ocean on our rusty boat, at lunchtime, the sound crew would put these songs on, really loud, and the actors would sit around in their absurd sideburns an hair cuts and shirts - and sometimes it seemed as though it actually was 1966 again, and we were actually there, riding and rocking on the ocean waves. I hope when you listen to these CDs, you can close your eyes, sway a bit - and join us on the high seas.
