Would like for the advertisement to specify that it was sissy spacek singing. Otherwise everything else was fine. Thanks.
As a teenager in the late 80's, my best friend and I went to Mexico for Spring Break on her parent's boat. We both got vicious sunburns on day one and spent the rest of the week indoors playing cards and listening to the only two cassette tapes on the boat over and over and over: 1) Coal Miner's Daughter Soundtrack2) John Denver's Greatest Hits Volume 2The torture was acute at first, then I found my burned body moving to the tunes, and by day seven I knew every lyric and had plans to buy my own copies when I got home. Now it's 20 years later and while I'm not a huge country music fan, they are still two of my favorite albums of all time. If you tell anyone, I'll deny it.
Ms. This is a great album. Anyone who enjoyed the movie, or is a Loretta Lynn fan should definetly have a copy. Spacek certainly has Loretta Lynn down. I especially enjoyed the duet with "Loretta & Patsy."
Sissy Spacek did this movie with much integrety,as well as Tommy Lee Jones back in 79'-80'. thats what is so AMAZING. It is a matter of opinion, but I will say this. Sissy Spacek stated that when she was "Really Singing" all of Loretta Lynn's Songs, it just came out like "nothing" -- I read alot about Sissy doing the real singing, and "not" Voiceover's", and TONS of people comment "that" Sissy Spacek actually sung Loretta Lynns songs BETTER then Loretta Lynn, herself. This is without a doubt one of the best Movie-Soundtrack's that was ever put to CD. BUY THIS CD, it's 98% Sissy Spacek & Bevery DeAngelo -- Flat Out. The movie sums it up for the most part, and it's almost 99% true, word for word. Beverly DeAngelo was about the only person that had the voice to "Pull" off, once again-- (REAL) singing by playing the Great Patsy Cline in this movie, this is how they became friends in real life.
She tells "all" about the movie, as well as Tommy Lee Jones. I do not amaze easy, but hearing Sissy Spacek do ALL Loretta's songs in the movie, practically (Live) they say- with no "shoot direction" is AMAZING. Yes, there were maany others like "Sweet Dreams", which was Excellent, but the (Only) downfall was Jessica Lange doing the "Voice Overs" -- On the other hand, in Cole Miner's Daughter, Sissy Spacek did a "SUPERB" Job in singing Loretta Lynn's songs. To this day in 2008, Sissy Spacek "Chuckeles" when asked about "Cole Miner's Daughter"- Per her interview/commentary on the 25th Annivirsary Edition DVD, released in 2006. Sissy stated that she Used Loretta Lynn's real Tour Bus, her real Clothes & gowns -- Not to mention she "Sissy" Sang her Heart out in this Movie "Cole Miner's Daughter". Loretta Lynn is wonderful. SISSY IS AMAZING. Amazing Voices.
This is an excellent soundtrack. do a unbelievable job of singing the country classics and in some cases actually improve upon the original versions. My brother had the album years ago and I waited for many more years for it to become available on CD. Sissy Spacek and Co. Stand out cuts are 'There He Goes', 'I'm a Honky Tonk Girl' and 'I'm Back In Baby's Arms'. If your a fan of Loretta Lynn and Patsy Cline you should definitely check this out, it will surprise you.
