Editing Roller Boogie (section)

==Soundtrack==
The soundtrack of the film largely draws on the [[disco]] sound that was popular in the late 1970s. A double-LP soundtrack was issued by [[Casablanca Records]] in 1979.

Almost all of the tracks were written directly for the movie by Bob Esty and Michelle Aller. Esty/Aller had at the time recently scored a sizable hit, writing [[Cher]]'s disco-single "[[Take Me Home (Cher song)|Take Me Home]]". Incidentally, they produced Cher's accompanying LP of the same name, as well as the ill-fated follow-up, ''[[Prisoner (Cher album)|Prisoner]]''. Cher would contribute one song to the Roller Boogie soundtrack – the Esty produced "[[Hell on Wheels (song)|Hell on Wheels]]", used in the opening sequence. The track originally featured on the ''Prisoner'' album, and a rare accompanying video clip featuring Cher roller-skating also appeared around the same time as the release of the movie.

The "Hell on Wheels" Japanese single includes another Prisoner album track, the 12" version of "Git Down (Guitar Groupie)", which is advertised as "Theme from Roller Boogie", but the song does not appear in the film. This single features a still of Linda Blair and Jim Bray on the cover.

The song "[[Lord Is It Mine]]", performed by Bob Esty, was originally written by [[Supertramp]]'s [[Roger Hodgson]] for their LP ''[[Breakfast in America]]''. He also performed the tracks "Summer Love", "Rollin' Up a Storm" and "Roller Boogie". The segued opening tracks of side two of the double LP, "Electronix (Roller Dancin')", and the Latin-disco instrumental "Cunga", are credited to Bob Esty and Cheeks. Craig Safan composed cues for the film's original score, but the film tends to rely on actual songs as opposed to instrumental pieces.

Along with "Hell on Wheels", the other song on the soundtrack that was previously available prior to the soundtrack release is [[Earth, Wind & Fire]]'s well-known disco single, "Boogie Wonderland", featuring [[The Emotions]]. Only two songs featured in the film do not appear on the soundtrack: Jean Shy's "Night Dancer", which appears in the movie when Terry first visits the roller-disco rink. Dave Mason plays his hit from two years before the film, "We Just Disagree".
