Lakeshore Records release the various artists soundtrack for The Nice Guys movie. The perfect 1970s collection includes classics from bands like Earth, Wind & Fire, The Bee Gees, The Band and more. The movie unfolds in 1970s Los Angeles, when down-on-his-luck private eye Holland March and hired enforcer Jackson Healy become the unlikeliest of partners. Working together, they have to find a missing girl, who seems to have a target on her back. And is her case related to the violent death of porn star Misty Mountain in a car crash? During their investigation, March and Healy begin to uncover a shocking conspiracy that reaches up to the highest circles of power... and just might get them both killed...

The soundtrack to The Nice Guys contains some interesting artist tracks from the '70s, although in truth most of these you'll probably already own (if you're a fan of '70s music) or not want in your collection if you don't like the era. There are plenty of compilation albums out there that feature classics like KISS's 'Rock and Roll All Nite'; Rupert Holmes's 'Escape (The Piña Colada Song)'; America's 'A Horse with No Name'; and Kool & The Gang's 'Get Down On It'.

However, for those who love '70s pop, as well as fans of the movie, this is a no brainer.
