Customer Reviews of The Rocky Horror Picture Show Audience Par-Tic-I-Pation Album: The Original Soundtrack To The Original Soundtrack From The Original Movie
Absolute embarrassment...get this out of print please! I have been to Rocky Horror 175 times, have played Frank, etc. So now that you think I'm a total freak....
This is the the most embarrassing audience participation I have ever heard. The lines are totally outdated, and just not very funny or creative. There are huge gaps where the audience doesn't even say anything at all. Maybe this was fun in 1983, but 21 years later I think a new album needs to be made. Actually there is audience participation on the DVD, so I would say buy the DVD instead of this CD. But maybe the CD is good for the car.
This album's only merit used to be finally being able to listen to the entire movie at home (since the regular music soundtrack album is edited). But since the movie was released on VHS (and now DVD), I'm not sure what point this participation album has anymore.
People are going to listen to this and think the whole thing is dumb. Lines like "Try Disneyland!" and people actually thinking it's funny just makes the listener want to cringe. There's also no "energy": the crowd sounds bored and possibly scripted. No one sounds like they're having any fun at all.
No offense to Sal or anyone, but I just can't stand it...though it was probably really great in 1983. I bet a lot of the people on the recording even cringe when they hear some of the old jokes today.
Buy the DVD instead.
Oh dear!
This is a reliving of the movie experience...without the video ;. The songs are wonderful, clear and just as I remembered. I did have one little problem...perhaps due to my ignorance. But as far as I can see....it IS the movie experience. It's just two LONG tracks (as it's a two-CD album). That would be nice if all I ever wanted was the movie experience, but what about when I just want to listen to my favorite songs?
The best is the Audience Participation Album
Any Rocky Horror fan can tell you that half the fun of seeing the movie is interacting with it. It wouldn't be Rocky Horror if you didn't. This album was made to give new fans a taste of what audience participation is like, and old fans a way to remember the classic lines shouted by the people at the 8th Street Playhouse back in 1983. It's a piece of history. It's classic, it's memorable; it's definitely the best album in Rocky Horror's history. A word of advice for new fans; if you listen to the album, don't necessarily think you can use those lines at your local theater. They tend to change with the location, the times, and the people involved.
