5.0 out of 5 stars Sheer Brilliance, April 2, 2001

Moshe Reuveni - See all my reviews

This review is from: Patriot Games: Music From The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (Audio CD)

I have this CD for many years now, and I still find it as one of the best soundtracks ever, featuring great pieces of classical music with a Celtic flavor (and some electronics to spice things up).

But the reason this CD holds the test of time is that it is an awesome hi-fi recording. I have been using it as one of my test CDs for quite a time, and it can tell you a lot about a system's low frequency reproduction capabilities, as well as being a good test for dynamic range and visceral impact (my favorite test track is "The Hit", by the way).

A tour de force by both composer and recorder.

This review is from: Patriot Games: Music From The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (Audio CD)

After watching the movie, I kept thinking about the soundtrack... Then when I got the CD, I was not disappointed! Highlights include "Harry's Game" (If you remember the movie, it was the song playing on the TV) and the intro and exit songs are some of the best on there. This CD is very easy to listen to.
