"SCHOOL OF ROCK: MUSIC FROM & INSPIRED BY THE MOTION PICTURE" features rock classics from Led Zeppelin, The Who, The Ramones, Cream, T-Rex, The Doors, and Stevie Nicks, alongside tracks from acclaimed new outfits The Darkness and The Black Keys. In addition, the collection contains original material from the film, including vocal excerpts from Jack Black, along with songs performed by the cast (backed by New York City-based garage rock sensations, the Mooney Suzuki). Alongside his numerous acclaimed acting roles, Black has made a musical name for himself as part of the comedy rock duo Tenacious D.
The Jack Black/School of Rock performances include the first single, "School Of Rock," and a rousing album-closing cover of AC/DC's "It's A Long Way To The Top." The album also includes a pair of songs performed in the film by the fictional No Vacancy, including "Heal Me, I'm Heartsick," penned by former Shudder To Think frontman Craig Wedren (who also composed the School Of Rock score). Another highlight is punk/alternative super-collective Wylde Rattz's reworking of the Stooges' classic "T.V. Eye," originally recorded in 1998 for the Velvet Goldmine soundtrack.
Produced by Scott Rudin and directed by Richard Linklater (Waking Life, Slacker, Dazed and Confused), Paramount Pictures' The School Of Rock stars Jack Black (Shallow Hal, High Fidelity) as rocker Dewey Finn, a hell-raising guitarist with delusions of grandeur. Kicked out of his band and desperate for work, he impersonates a substitute teacher and turns a class of fifth grade high-achievers into high-voltage rock and rollers. Joan Cusack portrays the prim principal of the prestigious private school where Black is grooming the kids for a local Battle of the Bands. The original screenplay was written by Mike White, who also co-stars along with Sarah Silverman.
"SCHOOL OF ROCK: MUSIC FROM & INSPIRED BY THE MOTION PICTURE" is produced by Jack Black, Richard Linklater, Randall Poster, and Scott Rudin. The Executive Soundtrack Album Producer for WMG Soundtracks is Danny Bramson. The Executive Soundtrack Album Producers for Atlantic Records are Craig Kallman and Ron Shapiro.
MPAA Rating: PG-13 for some rude humor and drug references.
Produced by Scott Rudin
Written by Mike White
