Ralph Bakshi's American Pop is one of my favorite animated films. Like Fantasia, the music is extremely important to the settings and tone of the movie. I've been on the look out for a compilation that covers all the songs from the film. There's something like 50 songs ranging from the 30s to the early 80s. A soundtrack album was released in 1981 but it only had 10 tracks, not even close to covering the entire soundtrack. I'm sure the costs to make an "official" release would be cost-prohibited.

Anyone ever find the entire soundtrack while combing the web?


Thanks.

Looking on IMDB's soundtrack listing, there's a list of some of the songs used in the film. I gets troublesome trying to get all the tracks used because some of the familiar songs are done by other singers (not the originals) and other songs (like Night Moves) are different from the released versions.
