I've actually started listening to the rest of the soundtrack recently. When I first got it (found an imported copy at Victoria Market in Melbourne) I would only listen to the Steinman tracks. Then I started listening to "Sorcerer" and "Deeper and Deeper" and those blues-style songs. It's not a bad album.
And I'd totally forgotten that Rick Moranis was in the film until I got it on DVD recently.
"Streets of Fire" was originally supposed to be a trilogy, which it would have been if the film had been more successful.
