5.0 out of 5 stars A great collection, February 27, 2004

By	"katielaine" (Texas) - See all my reviews

This is a really fabulous collections of songs. There is a great balance of old and new. This isn't a collection from one single genre and the diversity keeps the mix interesting. It's great to hear songs that wouldn't normally be noticed while a movie is playing and it's also great to hear those easily recognizable tunes from popular movies.

a very nice CD filled with some of the finest film music ever produced. The Craig Armstrong piece is especially sumptuous and a real treat for the ears and soul. Nicely recorded with a wide detailed soundstage. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
