From Amazon.com: Can't get enough of 1970s-themed soundtracks? Here's another one! Like most of its period brethrens, Running With Scissors starts with a stock made of familiar hits ("Blinded by the Light," "Bennie and the Jets," "Year of the Cat"); it then adds a splash of lesser-known songs by big acts (10cc's "The Things We Do for Love") and a pinch of slightly older tunes for taste (a pair of Nat King Coles and Vince Guaraldi's "O Tannenbaum," from A Charlie Brown Christmas). Even the new track (Catherine Feeny's "Mr. Blue") sounds air-lifted from 1975. Of course, the same period songs that feel old-hat on their own usually work marvel in the context of the movie, and in a way their best use is as memory-joggers for fans of said movie. If you like mid-1970s pop, this CD will please you, but then you may well have these songs already. --Elisabeth Vincentelli
