1.0 out of 5 stars This Rocky Music is Dead On Arrival, January 6, 2007

By	James Koenig "konedog" (Minnesota) - See all my reviews (TOP 100 REVIEWER)

In a complete departure from previous Rocky movie soundtracks, this album is mostly a collection of vocals by various artists. It has none of the inspiring instrumental themes common to Rocky , Rocky II, and Rocky III, composed by the legendary Bill Conti. Listening to this album, there is nothing that distinguishes it as a Rocky movie soundtrack. I found nothing endearing whatsoever in this collection. The album is a KO in that it is dead on arrival. I do not recommend it.

2.0 out of 5 stars Rocky V Original Soundtrack (Limited 15th Anniversary Ed.?), March 21, 2006

By	Satnarayan B. Partap "Rocky Forever" (Bronx, NY) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

What was so special about it from the reg. version soundtrack?
Why in the past was this worth $45.? This soundtrack has no feel about Rocky. Part of a series on film involves music. All these rap tracks were garbage. I can't watch Rocky and have it affiliated with rap. The only song I liked was "Measure of a Man" by Elton John. That track pretty much sums up the Rocky Saga. I hope they use that track again in "Rocky Balboa". Speaking of which; I hope there aren't that many rap tracks in that one as well. The only reason of purchase... Is because I'm a "Rocky Fan". Enough said...

5.0 out of 5 stars 15 year platinum edition!, April 22, 2006

By	Brian Pernice "Some guy" (East Northport NY USA) - See all my reviews

The Rocky V soundtrack has been quite expensive until now. The Rocky V soundtrack was an import that use to cost $40. Now 15 years later they finally released it in the U.S. with some new features. It now comes with a 15 year commemorative cover (I know this is no big deal) and it is an enhanced cd with videos that can be viewed on your computer. The songs are great too. My favorites are Measure of a man by Elton John, Go for it! by Joey B. Ellis and Tynetta Hare, and Take You Back (Home sweet home) by The 7A3. Get this great deal for $15.98 a great step down from $39.99.
