A great split album of rock and blues that condenses the excitement of the film.
This split album features two tracks related to the film "Streets of Fire." Fire Inc. delivers a dramatic rock number, while Ry Cooder delivers a bluesy instrumental, creating a fascinating contrast.
Side A, "Tonight Is What It Means To Be Young," is a Jim Steinman-produced track with a heavy rock sound, fusing the power of female vocals with an orchestral arrangement. The dramatic buildup of synths and guitars creates a sense of scale befitting the film's climax. Meanwhile, side B, Ry Cooder's "Hold That Snake," is a blues instrumental featuring slide guitar, with a pleasant earthy yet light rhythm. Both albums share a common thread: their completeness as film music, and the unique way different genres interact on a single disc. This album is a culmination of rich sound production and high-level performance technique.
