WWF The Music Vol.5

The appeal of this CD is at once limited and immense. A 14-song disc featuring the entrance theme songs of World Wrestling Federation superstars will be attractive mostly to WWF fans. But there's certainly several arenas full of those, and that carnivorous clan will certainly want to catch The Rock making his recording debut on "Pie", a skit/novelty song featuring Slick Rick. While a couple of tracks are repetitive instrumental entries with a few vocals, others are more fully developed songs: Motorhead's performanceof "The Game", Triple H's theme song, is raucous fun. The melodic andportentous "If You Dare", Tazz' theme song, is another winner. Ditto the moody "Out of the Fire" that announces Kane's entrance. Odd but appealing is "The One", Billy Gunn's theme song, and "I've Got It All", with its "Sweet Jane" melody line. From hip-hop to metal, this collection has something for every hardcore wrestling fan willing to "smackdown" their hard-earned bucks for the cause. --Katherine Turman
