I began watching the first season of "Lois & Clark" on DVD a few months ago. Immediately, I loved it. Not too long after I began watching it, I realized that the show had a fine soundtrack, and so I set about picking it up. I finally found a copy on sale at an FYE store. So I bought it and I listened to it.

Having not seen anywhere past the first season of the show, I can't really say that the songs bring to mind images from the episodes. The opening title theme is absolutely fantastic. Adventurous, cheery, exciting - it makes you picture Superman, flying through the sky. "Lois & Clark Courting" is a great song, with the jazzy sax parts. "Clark's Salsa" is a great conga piece. Without a doubt, the most moving song on the album is "Superman Says Goodbye". It's really a sad piece; definitely not the sort of thing you'd expect for a romantic comedy show. "Baby Dreams" is a cute little piece. One of my favorites is "Superman Flies Home", which starts off well and then gets great with a sound that just captures the feeling of magic perfectly. The album ends with an "extended mix" of the main title theme, which actually sounds quite a bit like something that would be on "Seinfeld". It's a cool song.

If you're a "Lois & Clark" fan, this is essential. It's a great CD, and certainly nothing like what I'd expected. It's jazzy, moving, and adventurous. I love it!

I loved the TV show "Lois & Clark" and I bought this CD as soon as it was available. Listening to the CD reminds me of each episode. It has two versions of the main theme song and many tracks from episodes.

The best soundtracks (regardless of the show title)'prep' the audience for watching and enjoying the show. The musical arrangement in a show is not supposed to overshadow the actors themselves.

So many current shows make the mistake of assuming they can be a vehicle for CD sales and their own characters, but observant fans see right through that charade. Rather than contributing anything to the plotline (or what there is in those shows) these marketing arrangements can be annoying.

Lois and Clark is a good example of a soundtrack written purely to compliment the show which it aired on. With no other obligation than to work on the score for Lois and Clark, these musicians had produced an awesome soundtrack which is well worth the purchase. When you hear the music, you know what show it is associated with.

Now our only mission is to get the Lois and Clark DVD's released.

This is the best tv soundtrack. I love the way it captures the story of Lois & Clark through beautiful music. When you listen to it, it takes you there and you feel as though you are soaring through the air, like Superman! Christina Luino

I am a HUGE fan of Lois and Clark and I recommend this CD for any fan! It will have you playing it all day it's so good. They have great pictures inside the booklet. If you ever want a little peice of Lois and Clark to say that you are a fan this soundtrack is perfect!

This cd is a must have for anyone who loved LNCTNAOS. Just listening to the cd brings a flood of wonderful memories along with it. I can listen to it for hours and capture the magic. However, even if you weren't a big fan, the music speaks for itself.

This soundtrack is very good. Jay Gruska's main theme is very true to the superheor genre. The mood and tempo make this score exciting the heoric feets that Dean Cain made as the costumed hero.

There are even quips of funny notations that really set the mood. Nice TV Score and a music for TV composer fans.

If you saw the show, you'll love the soundtrack and if you didn't see the show, the music still creates a wonderful feel for the listener. I personally know a great deal about music and I have to say that it is superb. Jay Grushka brings a fleet of emotions into his compsition and gives it a nice feel without making it seem corny or over-egsaggerated. Great music and a wonderful score! A must have for any music fan!

Lois and Clark was an excellent show. It score was really important in shaping its character. The score was very broad and enchanting in its cues. Jay Gruska is one of the best when writing a score that will be remembered after the show is long gone, but not forgotten. He does so ever time you hear this music you think of the scene in the show and they just enhance each other so much. that is what scores do to what you watch. that is their job. Jay Gruska now does the score for charmed.

L&C was a great show, no doubt, and one of the best Superman adaptations of all. The music, as many here point out, really sets a standard for what theme music should be... something to enrich and accentuate the show, not sell CDs. But, the music is very calming and refreshing and sometimes inspiring.

My one complaint... how could they leave off the two cameo songs performed by Terri Hatcher. She has an excellent singing voice. When she sang "I've Got A Crush"... BRAVA! indeed. They should have included her songs on the soundtrack. Without that, well, no five stars from me...

Oh well...
