A Future Soundtrack Album?


Earlier this week we posted two reviews of the novel Rocket Man by Bill Hazelgrove. Our instincts tell us that this novel may be made into a major motion picture... If so, here is one guess as to what the soundtrack might look and sound like:

Rocket Man - Elton John [Opening scene, the rocket boy]
Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere - Neil Young [Belleview]
Hung Upside Down - Buffalo Springfield [suburban angst]
Up On Cripple Creek - The Band [bike ride to the white farm house]
Pleasant Valley Sunday - The Monkees [The Belleview Association meeting]
There Are Maybe Ten or Twelve - A.C. Newman [worries]
I Don't Want to Hear Any More - the Eagles [marital problems]
Tomorrow - Paul McCartney and Wings [hope]
Don't Doubt Yourself, Babe - the Byrds [sixty rockets on the pads]
Won't Get Fooled Again - the Who [Rocket Day!]
Rocket Man - Elton John [edit version, final scene]
My Days and All My Days Off - A.C. Newman [the crawl, closing credits]
