Hence, there are actually ten physical tracks, not eleven. Why the manufacturer of the CD chose to do this is anyone's guess. This is also a source of confusion if you rip this CD using Windows Media Player or other services which list these tracks as separate entities when in fact they are not, causing all the tracks to be misnamed! Excellent duplication of the movie sound tracks, though. Better than the originals in the movies! By This review is from: Star Tracks (Audio CD) This is one of the best recording I have ever heard, crystal clear sound with great punch , and anyone who saw ET and loved the music especially at the end will know what I meam By Mathieu Tremblay "baronofdarkness" (Quebec, Quebec Canada) - See all my reviews This review is from: Star Tracks (Audio CD) Star Tracks is an absolute must. Wonderfully performed by the Cincinnati Pops Orchestra, it brings out the guts from all the music in movies we've heard countless times. To all people who has an musical ear: you'll notice this particular album has the perfect tempo and the right choice of instrument tracks and volumes. I've looked elsewhere with complilation albums such as John Williams' Greatest Hits or the Star Wars soundtrack (which they were performed by other symphonies such as London, Skywalker or Boston Pops); they just don't match the brillance of the Cincinnati Pops Orchestra. In addition, since this symphony is not conducted by John Williams (Erich Kunzel takes the helm here), this permits to perform Alexander Courage's Star Trek TV series from the 60s and it is a rare gem. Beleive me: it's a must! |
