Watched an old movie titled, Metropolitan (1990) tonight and thought the soundtrack was great. Went to Amazon and they had one used for over $60 and one new for over $119. I was like WTF? It's just a soundtrack. Turns out it some sort of cult classic that is related to the movie, Last Days of Disco (1998) with much of the same cast and characters. So, naturally I go to Ebay and find only one listed in mint condition for $30. It has 29 tracks of a variety of genres that I pictured in my mind would sound good on my system.

1. Main Titles: A Mighty Fortress Is Our God
2. On Christmas Night
3. Goodnight, Ladies
