Rocky IV is the original motion picture soundtrack to the movie of the same name. It was originally released in 1985 on the Scotti Brothers label.[1] Scotti Brothers re-released the album on compact disc on March 10, 1992 [2].
The soundtrack was hugely successful, spawning two top five singles in Survivor's "Burning Heart" (which Sylvester Stallone personally commissioned for the movie and reached #2 on the Billboard 100) [3] and James Brown's "Living in America", both of which debuted in the movie. It also featured Robert Tepper's lone hit, "No Easy Way Out".
