Various - Saturday Night Fever (The Original Movie Sound Track) flac mp3 download

A little disappointed with this one. I use to have the original vinyl version when released in 77 which I adored. Then I bought the Remastered CD 1995 which I really liked and sounded great. I gave that copy away to have this version. The presentation on this edition is lovely and similar to the original vinyl version. I can't say I am all that impressed with the sound quality though. The sound quality on the first disk is a grade less than on the 1995 Remastered CD version. The second disk, which is really why I bought this edition, is The Serban Ghenea Mixes, which aren't as impressive as I would have expected from this so call 'impresario producer' of music.There is some subtle vocal variations on each mix, most notably on "You Should Be Dancing", which is nice enough in itself. What has me really disappointed and surprised is that the recordings levels on these mixes are wrong and there is a small amount of distortion in sound. I guess I shouldn't be so surprised, after listening to these mixes it seems obvious to me now that this was just another marketing ploy for music companies to cash in on, and that Serban Ghenea didn't have to do much here to make a fast buck on the back of some of the greatest music ever made. There's no improving on perfection, no matter how people may claim otherwise.

Not sure what's going on with the format description here of "Double CD Case 15/16'' Thick", because that makes no sense.

Does anyone who has this reissue have any compression issues or skipping issues?

Picked it up today, it doesn't skip and sounds warm. No compression issues. Playing back with a Stanton 680 HP cartridge.

This pressing is lacking bass. I didn't get disco feeling with this pressing. I have 2658 123 UK from 1977 and it sounds notably better, more bass and punch.

This Reprise 2014 vinyl reissue sounds strident and brittle compared to my Reprise 2007 CD reissue. The vinyl is quiet though.

This album was actually counterfeited to meet the demand for it! They were almost identical to the genuine ones, but the print is slightly fuzzy on both the cover and the labels. The sound quality is also not as crisp. Since so many different bootleggers were making them, that could explain why there are so many different versions of this out there that seem almost normal, but with varying quality. If you have one that is just plain weird (like the single record version) or something stranger, you probably have a counterfeit.

I'll have to dig out the copy in my closet my grandpa had and find out which one it is.

I have always preferred this version with the live version of Jive Talkin'. It seems odd that some pressings of this have the studio version and some have the live version.

The live version replaced the studio version because of some copyright infringement. Only the first runs have the studio version, and all subsequent issues have the live one.

Well nuts. Five trillion versions and still no match for my copy. Guess I'm keeping it for the wife!

I have one with no match as well. Trouble is some copies have more than one variation and no one has posted those yet. Or perhaps it's just not worth bothering.

After this every major and minor celebrity made a disco album. People from all genres made disco albums. People of all ages bought disco records. I was a poor teenager or I would've bought it too. Saturday Night Fever wasn't just some stupid disco movie, it laid the seeds of a cultural revolution around the world. There has been nothing like it since. People who had never been to a club were suddenly lining up. The Gibb brothers wrote and produced music for many major recording acts for at least the next decade. The Bee Gees music still lives on in many animated movies. That's how little kids know these songs. My daughter included. But all things end. In the US the rock musicians were no longer selling their bloated stadium nonsense and started the 'disco sucks' movement and it was pretty much over like that. Radio stations changed their formats overnight. People brought their disco records to burning parties. In the rest of the world it was still disco music for a long time. In the US it never went away. Merely headed underground and changed its name to 'dance music'. And dance music has mutated into hundreds of sub genres. And still mutates...

Yes, he did. James was low on cash and like so many others out of the loop and low on loot they made disco records as well. Too bad most of those albums were terrible. Or perhaps that was good. Those disco records killed many mediocre recording acts.

And then James Brown wanted a piece of the pie so he released an album called The Original Disco Man.

While not a fan of the movie, this is a great LP. The Bee Gees really kill it on this one! A+

Hello Is this project is the picture presentation is consistent with the same version it?

Sounds good but the low end on this MFSL issue seems to be a bit on the boomy side.Stick with with the 90's Joe Palmaccio cd remaster. More natural sounding.

records are pressed on 138 gram vinyl and not 180gr as stated on the sticker.I am talking about 2014 Europe press.

My album came with a print mistake, both label sides on Record 2 came printed with the same Side 2, so it was a little mess identify the 5 songs of the Side 1

Since there are 5 tracks on one side and 3 on the other it shouldn't be difficult to tell.

My CD release is manufactured and marketed by A&M Records Inc. is this version the same?

If all the numbers match up, yes.. . . .

Oh god, it's this. I usually try to review something I normally wouldn't listen to but this is beyond what I intended. I'm a punk! I can't review a disco album! But because this is a big deal I think I should say something: It's just a basic disco album. Not just that, it's one of the best selling albums of all time, a fact that frightens me just a little. Would I suggest it? Sure, why not? It's not hard to find and you should only have to pay 1-5 bucks for a good copy. Nicely put, it's not what I enjoy but it is culturally very important and it is a necessity as a record collector that you must have at least one copy. If disco is your thing or you just want a record that (most) everybody knows and loves, this is the album for you.

This soundtrack propelled disco into the stratosphere. Must have release.

excellent submission - thank you

does anyone now anything about a release with only one LP and not double? track listing is different but the label is the same rso 2658 123

A pressing from Israel. . . . . https://www.discogs.com/Various-Saturday-Night-Fever-The-Original-Movie-Sound-Track/release/3915308

definitely a serious collectors item!! The music soundtrack did a great deal in propelling the movie.Forget most of the crap you see these days. This was serious music!
