This came out in 1999 – or at least that’s when I got it. Here’s what I said about it back then (with some minor editing):
Robin Williams’ latest moviehouse mix of medical mirth and misery — a tale of a doctor who uses humour as medicine — has a soundtrack with a personality that’s just as split.
The first half is an upper; nine decent, albeit overly familiar MuchMoreMusic hits from retro-rockers such as Eric Clapton (Let It Rain), CSNY (Carry On), The Band (The Weight) and Sly Stone (Stand). The second part is a bitter pill, however; a pointless orchestral score with all the rush of a shot of Nyquil. Where’s Dr. Kevorkian when you need him?
