I remember watching this movie and hearing the instumental music for the first time. I instantly recognized the music and was drawn to it, like responding to the voice of a dear and long-time friend. I have been a fan of John Barry's music for awhile now, starting with the movie "Dances with Wolves", then discovering my favorite "Somewhere in time". Buy this CD, if only for the 25 minute insrumental suite by John Barry. It will stir your heart and soul. I look forward to hearing the rest of his music.

Well I have to say that it was John Barrys instrumental that made me buy this CD immediatley. I remember walking into a music store and they were playing the 25 min. suite I could not leave the store until the music was over, I knew immediatly that it was from this movie because I remember how poignant the music was. I was dissapointed in Sade "No Ordinary Love" was not on the CD but "If I'm not in love with you" as well as others made up for that omission. I have bought it several times over the past few years as gifts for friends that enjoy instrumental suites and have since researched and found John Barry's other collections such as; "Out of Africa", "Scarlet Letter" and "Somewhere in Time"

Happy Listening

This is one of those few alblums that you can stick on and enjoy from begining to end with no need to skip past songs you dont like, because theres none on it.I've had this C.D for years now and it is still one of my favorites.The 25min suite at the end is worth the price alone.I suggest you buy two because when a friend looks to borrow it you'll find it hard to part with it.

What is so good on this cd?Is it Seal?Is it Lisa Stansfield?Is it The Pretenders?No way.It is the 25 minutes of John Barry's romantic instrumental score.Wonderful...

I've long been a fan of John Barry and have followed his work from the early 60's. When I think of his best efforts, my thoughts keep drifting back to Indecent Proposal. He he gives us some of the most beautiful film music ever. The 25 minute suite of melodies represent Mr. Barry at his peak. The music fits the film perfectly and though Wood Harreslon almost singlehandedly ruins a potentially good movie, John Barry comes to the rescue. I'm forever grateful for all the wonderful music this talented composer has given us.

Perhaps best known for his work in the Bond movies, John Barry has become one of the most widely known musical composers. Barry offers any one of us a beautiful escape from the pop world dominated by teen "divas."

His 25 minutes of original music on the Indecent Proposal soundtrack is simply his best work. Like many of his works with Bond, his music simply makes the movie. It covers all ranges of emotion in what is sometimes a subtly twisted but ultimately sweet love story.

Other songs from Bryan Ferry, the Pretenders and Seal make this CD well worth the purchase.

These days it's hard to find a good movie soundtrack album and most often than not you get the best tracks on a compilation of songs from various movies versus just one in particular. In the case of this soundtrack I found that out of nine songs, only four were good including The Pretenders, Seal, Lisa Stansfield and John Barry's instrumental suite. The other five are not as appealing and I think the addition of Sade on this album would have done a lot to enhance its quality. Most of the songs on here are relatively unknown, even though the singers are very familiar. That doesn't mean the songs are of dubious quality however and these four surely stand out above the rest.

If you're looking to add to your soundtrack collection or if you enjoyed the film and its background music, this may not be a bad bet. Enjoy!

The music in this movie composed by John Barry is very beautiful,John Barry always give us a feeling of love in his music.If you are a fan of Barry,do not hesitate to buy this album!

I was looking for this Cd in Argentina but I couldn't find it... Lisa Stanfield and Pretenders the best songs of this movie. I will buy this CD for these songs only ! Monumental...very romantic

We loved this soundtrack. We played it on our living room stereo system listened it to the end. Not only was the price good but the quality
was great. I would recommend this to anyone that wants to hear relaxing music. The item was shipped very quickly and packaging was great.
