4.0 out of 5 stars
Good soundtrack guide,
By Red Wood "film producer" (Omaha, NE.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Musichound Soundtracks: The Essential Album Guide to Film, Television, and Stage Music (Musichound Essential Album Guides) (Paperback)
I picked this up at a very low cost at a Hastings book/media store. What a bargain I got! This is the best soundtrack guide I've found. The purchases I've based off this book were both scores I liked but that the book "highly recommended"-and, yes, these happen to mostly be the best scores I now own. Although like all record guides of late, CDs are now in a renaissance of sorts when it comes to digital restoration, so be aware of this when purchasing. Just shop smart and you'll often get a better copy than what was available at the time this guide went to press. However, the guide will still lead you to the best film/stage version more often than not. Just make sure you get the most recent release(unless the bells and whistles appear overrated-as in added features you have no interest in rather than a pristine newly restored copy-which is the real reason to go for a recent rerelease).
5.0 out of 5 stars
GREAT RESOURCE BEFORE BUYING SOUNDTRACKS!,
By
This review is from: Musichound Soundtracks: The Essential Album Guide to Film, Television, and Stage Music (Musichound Essential Album Guides) (Paperback)
This book has proved to be an excellent and comprehensive resource for me in buying movie soundtracks, an interest I have recently acquired since buying a few on my own several months back ["Van Helsing" & "Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow" started this obsession---uh, er, I mean "hobby."]. This book has steered me right in making subsequent purchases. The book's reviews focus solely on the MUSIC on the soundtrack and how it sounds APART FROM THE MOVIE ITSELF. My only complaint: this book was published in 2000. It is high time they issued an update with more recent movie soundtracks! ! ! Okay, Music Hound, it's time to get up off your lazy haunches and go fetch us a new edition !
