According to the DVD commentary for ''Saturday Night Fever'', the producers intended to use the song "Lowdown" by [[Boz Scaggs]] in the rehearsal scene between Tony and Annette in the dance studio, and choreographed their dance moves to the song.<ref name=DVD>Badham, John (2002). ''Saturday Night Fever'': [[Audio commentary]] (DVD). Paramount.</ref> However, representatives for Scaggs' label [[Columbia Records]] refused to grant legal clearance for it, as they wanted to pursue another disco movie project, which never materialized. Composer [[David Shire]], who scored the film, had to write a song to match the dance steps in the scene, replacing the Scaggs track. However, Shire's track does not appear on the movie's soundtrack.

The song "K-Jee" was used during the dance contest with the Puerto Rican couple that competed against Tony and Stephanie. Some VHS cassettes used a more traditional Latin-style song instead.<ref>{{cite web |title=Saturday Night Fever 1979 VHS, Latin Dancers/"K-Jee" by MSFB (Paramount Home Video) |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OFfIK5-HvAU |website=[[YouTube]] |access-date=26 September 2023 |date=June 30, 2021}}</ref> The DVD restores the original recording.

The album, like its parent film, has been added to the [[Library of Congress]] via the [[National Recording Registry]].<ref name=Merc/>
