Description

Us pressing cut out cover The soundtrack to ‘Iron Eagle’ may just be the king of the 80s rock soundtracks. As good as the soundtracks for Over the Top, Navy Seals, and the Transformers were, none of them had quite as impressive a collection of tracks as Iron Eagle. The movie itself has to be one of the all time great guy movies but the soundtrack is for every fan of the 80s. If the fact that it features an exclusive Dio song (Hide in the Rainbow) isn't enough for you, you also get songs by Queen, King Kobra, Helix, a pre-Mr. Big Eric Martin, and the Jon Butcher Axis. Even lesser known acts like Adrenalin and Urgent turn in quality material. The Katrina And the Waves and George Clinton offerings don't add much (from a rock perspective), but even they aren't too bad. It doesn't have all of the music featured in the movie, but what it does offer is pretty impressive (and besides, you can hear that Twisted Sister track on about a billion other albums). If you make any claim at all to being a serious 80's rock fan, you must own this soundtrack. You don't even need to like the movie to enjoy this killer selection of melodic rock and metal from a decade when this kind of music ruled the radio. 1. Queen-One Vision 2.
