Hoot: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack

In association with Amazon.com
Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Kids movie, Adult's soundtrack
Who would have expected the soundtrack for a kids movie to be this good? I originally purchased it for Maroon 5/Bill Withers version of "Lovely Day" and Jimmy Buffett's Floridays, but have really enjoyed the different types of music that music supervisor Savannah Jane Buffett has put together. Parrott Heads have plenty to enjoy on this disc too, with "Wondering Where The Lions Are", "Good Guys Win", "Barefootin'" (with Alan Jackson) and Jimmy's cover of the Warren Zevon classic "Werewolves Of London". There is plenty for the non-Parrot Heads to love as well. The cuts by G.Love and Toots & The Maytals are fun summertime music that just get stuck in your head. Even the score, "Happy Ending", is bright and sunny. This CD hasn't left my car since it arrived.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Disappointed
Says it all. Has Jimmy gone The John Denver route? Many people may have purchased this thinking they were getting some Buffet and Buffet-type tracks, but it IS a sound track and I guess I shoulda' known.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - nice soundtrack
I'm not usually too interested in soundtracks, but I was in the store today and this one was playing on the overhead. When i heard the wonderful rendition of Bruce Cockburn's Wondering Where the Lions Are I had to have it. As the day has gone on the soundtrack as a whole has proved to be a great buy.

The Maroon 5/Bill Withers cover of Lovely Day is grand, and Floridays is an improvement on the original. Brie Larson's Coming Around is a nice bit of pop and Toots and the Maytals Funky Kingston is infectious. Barefootin' (with Alan Jackson) continues the collaboration begun on License to Chill to good effect. The only clunker is Buffett's version of Werewolves of London-a horrible mistake to record this one, it only takes away from the original.

Reviewing a Jimmy Buffett cd is always an adventure. Parrotheads are already sold and a certain segment of the market automatically discounts his work. This is a fun, enjoyable cd. I could recommend the cd just for Wondering Where the Lions Are and Funky Kingston, but the rest of the tracks make it a very good value



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Fun soundtrack, definitely an upper
Really enjoyed "Hoot" and the soundtrack keeps up with the high-spirited fun. Plus, I think all the music from the film was there. We've got some classic Buffett "Floridays" and a wonderful cover of Warren Zevon's "Werewolves of London." I especially like the version of "Lovely Day" and "Good Guys Win."



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Margaritas, sunshine and owls
Very nice soundtrack, featuring some excellent covers and several originals. Jimmy's new song "Good Guys Win" is destined for the Billboard Charts. As usual the Coral Reefer Band is in fine form here and Fingers Taylor even re-emerges on a couple of songs. (Although CA harmonica ace Tom Ball also kicks butt on "Happy Ending.") Sonny Landreth plays a mean slide. Good music for driving, boating, BBQing and/or just hanging. Now pardon me while I pour myself a tall, cold one.
