More Music From The Motion Picture Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me
This time around they've includedthe Guess Who's version of "American Woman," so we're off on the right foot. Sorry, Mr.Kravitz. This compilation of tunes from the second Austin Powers movie includes such obvious hits (yet obvious enough to be left offthe first volume) asthe Monkees' childlike and charming "I'm a Believer,"Marvin Gaye's slinky "Let's Get It On," andthe Zombies' eternally gasping "Time of the Season." To carry this soundtrack farther down classic rock road, the producers have included a sprightly remix (Calderone mix) ofMadonna's "Beautiful Stranger,"Fantastic Plastic Machine's retro-goofy and aptly named "Bachelor Pad" (in your head, you can see Mike Myers going into back spasms), and a brand newBanglessong ("Get the Girl"), which might as well have been dusted off from 1966 with its tight harmonies and chiming 12-string guitars. Time to, uh, shag.--Rob O'Connor
