Almost Famous: The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack
A mere selection of songs from the fifty-plus tracks featured in the film, the nostalgic soundtrack for Cameron Crowe's homage to rock and roll, Almost Famous, plays like an ode to an era. Led Zeppelin, a band infamous for its reluctance to license its music, agreed to include That's the Way after watching an early cut of the movie. Elton John, Rod Stewart, Yes and Simon & Garfunkel tunes provide ample classic rock fodder, and David Bowie's live rendition of Lou Reed's Waiting for the Man hails the burgeoning glam-rock movement. Nancy Wilson, who scored the film, also contributes two original tracks: Lucky Trumble and Fever Dog, a song by the movie's fictional rock band Stillwater. Other prominent contributions include tracks by the Allman Brothers Band, Clarence Carter, Lynyrd Skynyrd and Cat Stevens.
