By far, this is my favorite movie and unfortunately I know there doesn't exist a soundtrack for it. DOes anybody have a copy of (or know how to get hold of a copy of) the song "Hold Me" ? It is performed by Clif Magness, music by Mark Goldenberg, and written by peter bernstein. It is the song that is played during the opening menu on the DVD and played throughout the movie about 3 times.
After a huge amount of searching, I managed to find some of the more difficult to find tracks from the film. I have uploaded them to a file server so anyone can download them.
Currently I have most of the key songs and may upload others (to the same server folder) as I come across them. The ones I have are
"Hold On" by Clif Magness (used during the ballet and aerial competitions). Apparently not even Clif Magness has the studio recording, which was never released... but I do, and it sounds amazing.
"When You Were Mine" by Mitch Ryder (used during the ski montage when Harkin first hooks up with the Rat Pack (studio recording, not a rip).
"(Love Starts at the) Top of the Hill" by Clif Magness (used during the opening credit ski montage). I ripped this from the DVD, as it was never released anywhere.
I have a copy of "Dreamers on the Rise" by John Stewart, but it's not the same version as the one in the movie. I have uploaded it anyway, but I'm still looking for the movie version. What's interesting is that although the movie credits mention who wrote the song, it's the only song where there's no credit for who actually performed it. It doesn't sound like John Stewart to me, in fact it sounds a lot like Patrick Houser the actor who played Harkin Banks. EDIT 03/24/14: I found out today directly from Mike Marvin, the movie's writer/producer... Guitar by Mike Marvin, vocals by Chuck McDermott.
EDIT: I have now uploaded the mp3 of Dreamers on the Rise from the movie (ended up ripping it from the DVD). I also uploaded the video clip (captioned with lyrics) to YouTube at http://youtu.be/fCVEFuuSUkA
Is the link for these still good? Finally managed to get my hands on a copy of the movie (which I love) and am looking for the song Harkin sings to sunny in the motel room. Thanks in advance!
"I can arrange for you a humiliating death. And, so we're on the same page, it will involve sheep."
Thanks so much for all of this, been looking for these songs for years. Unfortunately the first song "dreamers on the rise" and Mich Rider tune have an access denied issue when trying to download. But the other songs are excellent. Thank you again!
