Welcome back, folks! We may have missed Christmas, but as this week's film reminds us, it's never too late. Round up some leftover wassail, put on your new fuzzy slippers, and join us as we break down the soundtrack to Richard Donner's 1988 "Christmas Carol" riff Scrooged!
Bill Murray plays Frank Cross, a jaded TV executive hellbent on producing the most tasteless Dickens adaptation ever seen. But he's soon visited by three spirits... You know how this one goes.
The soundtrack is not your traditional Christmas album. We get Natalie Cole and Miles Davis putting their spin on a couple holiday standards, but we also get wannabe holiday jams from Dan Hartman, Robbie Robertson and The New Voices of Freedom. And of course, there's the inescapable theme song from Annie Lennox and Al Green!
