In Anchorman 2, Ron Burgundy and the news team get their groove back with a powerhouse soundtrack of original and classic material. Burgundy himself teams up with Robin Thicke on a cover of Christopher Cross's 'Ride Like The Wind.' It's the first taste of the collection that fans will hear. The track listing boasts appearances from characters Brian Fantana, Brick Tamland and Champ Kind, alongside timeless gems from Neil Diamond, Kenny Loggins and more. Nobody gets down like the Channel 4 News Team does - no one...

The soundtrack to Anchorman 2 is made up of 21 tracks (52 min) that incorporate messages from Ron Burgundy (Will Ferrell) as well as various artists tracks.

This is exactly what you'd expect from this sort of album, there's a lot of content with varying quality and it's definitely a soundtrack that focuses on quantity over quality. This is an album that will only really appeal to fans of the movie, and to be honest, in this day and age when you can pick and choose MP3 tracks from online retailers you're probably better advised to just download the songs you actually like rather than picking up the entire album - I doubt there will be more than a handful of tracks here that you'll choose, whatever your musical tastes.

It's not an album that I'd really want to play again, but I'm sure that the movie's fans will lap this up.
