Tough one.

I love Take it Easy (but like the Eagles' version better).

Tender is the Night, Somebody's Baby, Doctor My Eyes, Lawyers in Love and Running on Empty are all great.

Running on Empty just slightly ahead of Doctor My Eyes, if forced to pick a favorite.

Somebody's Baby. Reminds me of the chick that's fixing to get nailed in Fast Times at Ridgemont High.

Because that song was playing during that scene?

Actually, for years, the song was only available on the soundtrack. I think it finally made it on JB greatest hit package later.

(ETA: And it was Jennifer Jason Leigh - and, although the dude was supposed to a much older character, the actor was only about 1 year older than Leigh.)

I though Damone was in the pool house, that scene was some other dude in the dug out... right?

Can't believe nobody has mentioned The Load Out/Stay yet.

You Love The Thunder is underrated.

Yeah, that's the pool house scene.

The dugout scene was Stacy (JJL) and Ron Johnson, the stereo salesman (or whatever) played by D.W. Brown.

Like most Hollywood casting of high school students, virtually everyone in the movie was in their mid-20s.
