Satisfaction (also titled Girls of Summer) is a 1988 drama film starring Justine Bateman, Julia Roberts, and Liam Neeson.
Plot
Jennie Lee (Justine Bateman) is the lead singer of an all-girl rock band named The Mystery. After recruiting a male keyboard player (Scott Coffey), the band travels to the beach to land a summer job singing at club owned by Martin Falcon (Liam Neeson). Things get complicated when Jennie has an affair with Martin, and a gang follow the band to retrieve their van that band member Mooch (Trini Alvarado) had stolen.
Soundtrack
A soundtrack for the movie was released in 1988. The soundtrack was billed as being performed by Justine Bateman & The Mystery. The Mystery is the ficticious band featured in the film, and the instruments are actually performed by session players on the soundtrack, with Bateman on vocals and Britta Phillips on background vocals. The song "Mr. Big Stuff" was billed as being a song performed by Bateman, but the lead vocal on that track is actually sung by co-star Britta Phillips. The soundtrack also featured songs by other artists.
