Invincible

How Long is a great song. 5 stars easy. The only legal way to download it is on this soundtrack. Almost worth it. I give 4 stars to the Jim Croce song and three to canned heat, dobie grey, elvin and rod stewart (One of his best). My wife likes this Lee Michaels song, I don't. The other 6 do nothing for me, there is no place for them on my iPod. I would pay for the whole soundtrack again to get How Long plus a good Jim Croce song and 4 decent songs.

this soundtrack is great!i can remember the parts in the movie where the songs go. i plan on getting a few more copies for family that enjoyed hearing it

I just watched the movie "Invincible" on TV. Not being a sports fan, I didn't have much interest in seeing this. I watched it at the insistence of my son. The movie so thoroughly grabbed me, that I went and ordered the DVD and soundtrack immediately after watching it. The only criticism I have is that, when I ripped it to put it on my mp3 player to listen to while running, the actual order of the songs on the CD is not listed correctly. The order is the same as on the CD jacket, so if you're a stickler about accuracy, you'll have to hand edit the info. Worth every penny!

Great classic 80's rock, there could have been a few more tracks but overall it was a great combination.

The Invincible Soundtrack is a great collection of pop and rock hits from the 1970s that are quite hard to find in CD stores. The songs bring back wonderful childhood memories that I seem to want to rekindle as I grow older.

Included is the never-played LP version of Elvin Bishop's Fooled Around and Fell in Love, which IMHO, is better than the 45 version that has been reproduced in the Have A Nice Day sets and the like. That extra minute and a half highlights the guitar strutting of Mr. Bishop which accompanied Mickey Thomas' vocals and the laid-back yet energetic drumming quite well.

Invincible is also the most immediate source I know of that has the classic 1975 track, How Long, by Ace, which you cannot directly download from I-Tunes or Rhapsody. Rare Earth's I Just Want to Celebrate is also another increasingly hard to find recording that is featured.

Great pop songs, such as the introductory I Got a Name by Jim Croce and Mandolin Wind by Rod Stewart, serve as reminders in this soundtrack of the wonderful songwriter decade that was the 1970s, which was also a period of high energy guitar rock, as well showcased by Bachman Turner Overdrive and Canned Heat.

Rounding out the rest is the Ted Nugent classic, Stranglehold, a tune that is not so repetitive, lyricwise, as his ubiquitous Cat Scratch Fever and that has me thinking of World Class Championship Wrestling, when the Von Erichs used it right before their ring introductions.

If you love the 1970s but hate the disco from that period, this is an ideal collection for you.
