Forest Gump, a comedy-drama based on a novel of the same title, tells the story of a slow-witted man from Alabama named Forest Gump. From his childhood to his manhood, he experienced, witnessed, and even gave some bearing on some of major and crucial events of the 50’s, 60’s, 70’s that shaped the later decades of the world, or America in particular.
The film was a major success internationally and Forrest Gump: The Soundtrack, a double-album that came with the movie, a wide-ranging compilation that was selected to mark certain points in time in the story, successfully became one of the best-selling soundtracks of all time. Around the globe, 4.42 million copies of this album were sold.
The period of the late fifties to middle seventies was the golden era of popular music for some, where music creativity and spirit reached their top. Many legends were born, many new genres emerged, and so many everlasting classic numbers were written, sang, and recorded. Forrest Gump: The Soundtrack captures that era perfectly by presenting various music genres (soul, early Motown, folk, rock ‘n’ roll, 60’s psychedelic), with some of the biggest legends (Aretha Franklin, Bob Dylan, Joan Baez, the Beach Boys, The Supremes, the Doors). This double album never reached Billboard number 1 spot, only peaked at #2. Nevertheless, it is a truly magnificent collection that represent music golden era.
