CAN’T STOP THE MUSIC

The sound-track album for “9 1/2 Weeks,” the long-delayed film (now due Feb. 21) that stars Kim Basinger and Mickey Rourke in a hot affair, finally has a home--Capitol Records.

Geffen Records had dropped its rights after label A&R; exec John Kalodner said he found the film “offensive” to women and was made “nauseous” by the movie. However, Capitol A&R; exec Stephen Powers, who put together the sound track, said the love scenes “don’t bother” him.

“The film appears more erotic in the mind than on the screen,” Powers said. “I really didn’t see what the controversy was about.”

Extensive editing forced Powers to drop some songs. The disc now features “I Do What I Do,” a theme song by Duran Duran’s John Taylor, as well as new songs from Devo, Stewart Copeland and Joe Cocker, whose remake of Randy Newman’s “You Can Leave Your Hat on” accompanies a Basinger strip-tease scene.
