Beverly Hills Cop (Music From the Motion Picture Soundtrack)
Album · Soundtrack · 1984
It shouldn't come as much of a surprise that the biggest-selling soundtrack of 1985 was loaded with toe-tapping hits from some of the year's hottest acts. Mixing genres while keeping the beat bumping, the album packs plenty of raucous R&B joy from Patti LaBelle's sassy "New Attitude", wailin' sax and guitar riffs from Glenn Frey's "The Heat Is On" and Middle Eastern-inflected bounce from Danny Elfman's "Gratitude". All this plus the most memorable track of all: Harold Faltermeyer's synthstrumental "Axel F".
