Though there are no tracks here that were recorded specifically for the film, the BANDITS soundtrack dips into the catalogs of Aretha Franklin, Mark Knopfler, Jimmy Page and Robert Plant, and Bob Dylan, making for a classic rock record with considerably more class than usual. In addition, some newer artists, culled from Columbia Records' fecund roster of adult-contemporary singer-songwriters, make appearances, among them Five for Fighting ("Superman [It's Not Easy]") and Pete Yorn ("Just Another"), both of whom contribute rootsy, melodic pop from their recent releases.
English '80s pop star Tanita Tikaram contributes the chestnut "Twist in My Sobriety," while Bonnie Tyler brings both "Holding Out for a Hero" and "Total Eclipse of the Heart." Dylan offers up the bluesy "Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum" (from his recent LOVE AND THEFT), and Page and Plant revisit Led Zeppelin's "Gallows Pole," which sounds surprisingly current--just one of BANDITS' many unexpected delights.
