Dirty Dancing is the original soundtrack of the 1987 film Dirty Dancing. The album became a huge commercial success. It went on to sell 32 million copies worldwide and is one of the best-selling albums of all time.[3][4] In the United States the album spent 18 weeks at #1 on the Billboard 200 album sales charts and went multi-platinum.[5]
There was a follow-up album entitled More Dirty Dancing (1988).
The album Ultimate Dirty Dancing, released in 2003, contains every song from the motion picture Dirty Dancing in the order it appears in the film.
Due to the strong resurgence of vinyl record sales, Dirty Dancing received a vinyl reissue in 2017, along with a Blu-Ray remaster with a 5.1 surround soundtrack and previously unreleased material.
