3.0 out of 5 stars Interesting but ..., January 24, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Globe Trekker Volume 1 (Audio CD)
it's NOT the same as the original soundtrack. For those who've bemoaned the missing track, it's at Globe Trekker: Original Journeys, the CD with the orange cover.

2.0 out of 5 stars waitin' for the 2nd Edition, May 27, 2002
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Globe Trekker Volume 1 (Audio CD)
First off, I was disappointed that the opening/theme song to Globe Trekker failed to make it on the track list. Ignoring that oversight, this CD is your run-of-the-mill techno/ambient playlist. Arguably, Tracks 1, 2, and 7 are the best (Ivory Weekend, Carnival w/ Reprise, and Forest Song) though there is something here for just about anybody. For a show that is so visually striking in its use of video and Super8 film cuts, the music provides a substantial underlying and supporting layer.

If this review sounds wishy-washy, then it reflects the CD. Nothing on this disc will blow you away, but if you want some background music to read, cook, clean, or drive to, then buy it. In short, Globe Trekker (Vol. 1) plays along the lines of the Blackhawk Down soundtrack. However, if you're seeking a powerful score along the lines of Unbreakable, Last of the Mohicans, Gladiator, or selected tracks from the Matrix, then skip this disc.

That being said, the good people at Globe Trekker just released Volume 2 of Soundtrack music. Amazon might have that soon...
