5.0 out of 5 stars
excellent compilation, August 14, 2005
This review is from: Great Science Fiction Blockbusters (Audio CD)
I love this CD. I knew I was going to love it too, I have most of these tracks on other Varese CDs, but this collection puts them all in one place and makes for a wonderful listening experience. You have tracks from the original soundtracks recordings for The Matrix, Starship Troopers, Total Recall and the Abyss. In addition there is a number of re-recoded tracks from other Varese compilations. the RSNO conducted by Joel McNeeley (Judge Dredd, Independence Day), John Debney (Back To The Future II), Stu Phillips (Battlestar Galactica) and Frederic Talgorn (Star Trek: Insurrection, Star Wars Episode 1). In addation there is a track from Alex North's rejected 2001 score performed by the National Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Jerry Goldsmith. I would have preferred that they used the re-recorded tracks from Aliens and Total Recall from The Alien Trilogy and Frontiers respectively but this is still a great collection and I recommend it to sci fi fans everywhere.
