Updated: Tuesday, July 31, 2012, 6:00 AM Title 'Sparkle: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack' Musicals that pine to tell the story of classic pop groups have their work cut out for them. They’ve got to come up with songs every bit as stunning and indelible as the ones that make the whole world sing. Good luck with that one.
Miraculously, that high bar didn’t deter the 1976 movie “Sparkle,” or the like-minded Broadway musical that came in its wake, 1981’s “Dreamgirls.” Both try to craft songs that not only could be hits, but which re-create the glory of the girl group and/or Motown era. All this, while serving the narrative needs of musical theater. Apparently, audiences felt they each did so well enough to inspire an upgrade from theater to film (for “Dreamgirls”) and a movie redo for “Sparkle,” whose reboot arrives in theaters Aug. In the meantime, we have “Sparkle’s” soundtrack, which carves out a major showcase for ex-“American Idol” star. It also includes the swan song from the doomed Whitney Houston.
While the 1976 “Sparkle” included five songs written by the late (who knew a few things about penning classics), the new take brings back just four of those. The earlier film also cheated by including five hits swiped from its setting’s era (the early ’60s). The new disc uses new songs (and production) from another hitmaker, R.

His production more closely mirrors the ’60s sound the film means to ape than Mayfield’s work did, right down to its tinniness. Jordin Sparks, left, and Whitney Houston in a scene from ‘Sparkle’ Unfortunately, the singers follow suit.
Carmen Ejogo, Tika Sumpter and Sparks, who play the would-be Supremes, sound thin, as individuals, and shrill, as a group. It shows particularly on Sparks’ would-be show-stopper, “Love Will.” Her runs and belts lack the fully anchored soul mama shouts you hear from her counterpart: Jennifer Hudson in “Dreamgirls.” They’re not nearly as earthy. There’s just as unflattering a comparison in the soundtrack’s best known song, “Something He Can Feel.” It sounds frigid next to En Vogue’s version, let alone Aretha Franklin’s drop-dead classic take. By definition, the CD has value as the home for Whitney’s two last vocal attempts, though neither turns out to be the tragic take one might fear, or the triumphant one fans would pray for.
