This review is from: Surf's Up - Original Ocean Picture Score (Audio CD)

I'd been waiting since the movie was released for the full score from the film to be put on CD, at last I've been able to add it to my soundtrack collection. It is likely that people didn't even realize there even WAS a score, but there certainly was, and it's some of the most emotional and beautiful I've heard in a while. It's surprising to hear what you may have missed watching the film, from scene to scene.

At 23 tracks, it seems like alot, but some tracks are only a minute or under, and you can be done listening to the whole CD faster than you'd imagine. That, I'd say, is the only downside to this limited release, but it is well worth listening to over and over, taking in all the little nuances of the music. Little things like the piano from "Legends" imitating the crashing of the wave in Cody's telling of the history of surfing, to that sad strum of Z's ukelele on "The Board Shack." If you're a fan of the movie, or great musical scores, this is well worth tracking down. It is assuredly short, but it packs a punch.

Unfortunately there was only a limited edition release of the original soundtrack. Last time I checked the CD was selling for around $60. What I did was go to i Tunes and downloaded my favorite pieces there.

This has become one of my favorite soundtrack. Simply beautiful. It is heavy on piano and light on the strings so if you're a violin person you won't enjoy it as much as say The Village or Last of the Mohicans but it is still amazing. The best tracks to down load are:

Legends
You're in
The board shack
The Has been
First round
Losers
Pointed the way back

PS, if you're looking for another beautiful piano piece check out Carly Commando - Everyday.

The movie is wonderful and the music is, too. I have the movie music and the CD with the songs that were used by the movie from other bands. All worthwhile!
