4.0 out of 5 stars "Wouldn't hold out much for the tape deck OR THE CREDENCE!", June 14, 2002

While this soundtrack is GOOD, the Credence just isn't here, MAN!!! I mean, there's just no...uh, you know...the Credence just isn't um...around the um...well, the music is on, Man, but the Credence just isn't here! I mean, this could have been a simple review, man! But you have my, um...well, my emotions and contextual waves are all in a mess because there's just no CREDENCE! I mean, man...when you make a soundtrack to this film and play two of Credence Clearwater's songs during crucial times in the film...you kinda expect to pick up a record, a cylindrical object with the Credence, man! I mean, SURE! You think you've got a winner, you pack all the other stuff on there! You've even got a better remix of HOTEL CALIFORNIA by the Gypsy Kings(I hate the freakin' Eagles), and that walking song will always remind me of Maude, but I can also seem to recall between all these Kaluha-filled White Russians, there was Credence played TWICE! You would think that it would be here, but it's not, Man!!!

This could be a bit more, uh...uh, you know, it could be...uh, it might not be such a simple, uh....YOU KNOW?!?!

4.0 out of 5 stars Find Colvin, Creedence, (and Eagles) Elsewhere, July 9, 2006

Shawn Colvin's version of Viva Las Vegas, which seems to be the most difficult to find of the "missing" tracks, can be found on the 1995 Doc Pomus Tribute CD 'Till The Night Is Gone' - also somewhat difficult to find, but an excellent CD.

2.0 out of 5 stars Best Tracks Are Missing- Please Issue Vol II, October 23, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The Big Lebowski: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (Audio CD)

Tumbling Tumbleweeds is practically the theme song of the Big Lebowski, yet it didn't even make the soundtrack. Mozart's Requiem? Dead and buried on the cutting room floor with several other great tracks. Creedence? Out the backdoor. I wanted to like the album as much as the movie, but so many tracks are missing. Maybe I just liked the movie too much, perhaps there will be a Lebowski II to fill in the gargantuan gaps?
