3.0 out of 5 stars Not the real thing, but 'dazzling' reorchestrations., October 29, 2001
By 
This review is from: Monster Mania: Music From The Classic Godzilla Films (1954-1995) (Audio CD)
These selections from the Godzilla films are not the original recordings, but peppy reorchestrations conducted by Randy Miller. Not really my of tea, but those interested in unique variations on Ifukube's compositions might something to like.

4.0 out of 5 stars A surprisingly good rendition of great Godzilla scores, March 24, 2000
By 
Mark Rainey (Greensboro, NC USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Monster Mania: Music From The Classic Godzilla Films (1954-1995) (Audio CD)
I've always been a nut for Akira Ifukube's musical scores, and even some of Masaro Sato's. This album was a surprise to me--new orchestrations of some of the most memorable music from the Toho Godzilla films. The renditions are mostly very true to the originals, with just enough variation to make for something a little new and different. It's nice to hear the decent quality stereophonic recordings since the original Toho soundtracks were recorded in mono. One common misnomer in the credits: the march from MONSTER ZERO is called the DESTROY ALL MONSTERS march. Disappointingly, there are no photographs or other interesting graphics on the package; I assume the producers didn't want to pay the exorbitant licensing fees Toho charges to use Godzilla's image.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not Exactly Ifukube, But Interesting Experimentation., June 30, 2011
This review is from: Monster Mania: Music From The Classic Godzilla Films (1954-1995) (Audio CD)
The music is technically Ifukube's, as well as other Godzilla composers like Masaru Sat' and Takayuki Hattori, but is composed by Randy Miller. He actually does pretty good, and does very epic sounding covers of themes from all over the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s and even 90s Godzilla films. Definitely worth checking out
