This one will take you back to the good old days of getting up early on Saturday mornings to sit in front of the t.v. for half the day. Lots of cool tracks on this one, like the 60's version of the Astroboy theme (though the newer one is much cooler, in my humble opinion); Thunderbirds and Captain Scarlet (which are sort of like cousins to each other); Underdog; Batman: The Animated Series (one of the most amazing shows ever. Period.); The Green Hornet with it's great rendition of "Flight of the Bumblebee" played by trumpeter-extraordinaire Al Hirt; the original Spiderman cartoon theme (which everyone likes better than the new one); The Tick with it's crazy, jazzy, scat theme; Knight Rider, which is awesome and unforgettable; Max Headroom, the late, great, short lived show that deserved a much better fate; Quantum Leap, one of the most interesting and intelligent shows I've seen. There are many more, some good, some so-so, all interesting choices (Mortal Kombat is one of those 'interesting' choices, as they aren't really defenders of justice. Oh well.) This album is a lot of fun to listen to and can be enjoyed by people of all ages.

4.0 out of 5 stars A (conditional) must have..., August 11, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Sci-Fi Channel - Sci-Fi's Greatest Hits, Vol. 4: Defenders Of Justice (Audio CD)

This album is comprised of TV and movie soundtrack titles, some of which are original recordings (Superman, Speed Racer, Knight Rider, The Terminator, the bionic series, Quantum Leap - there may be others), and not-so-original (but fairly close) re-orchestrations. I bought this album for "The Flash", and although it is one of the re-orchestrations, it is fairly close to the original and definitely worth having. Both it and Knight Rider are so good, they're goose-bump inducing. If you don't mind skipping over the mind-numbing kiddie show themes, this is a must have!

5.0 out of 5 stars A good CD minus one, January 6, 2008

This review is from: Sci-Fi Channel - Sci-Fi's Greatest Hits, Vol. 4: Defenders Of Justice (Audio CD)

This CD has some of the most standout themes ranging from the 60's to the 90's. Though the only track I find misleading is the Amazing Spiderman one. In the booklet, it discusses the live action show from the 1970's but the track itself does not represent that. The theme comes from the 1960's animated Spiderman show. Though I would have liked if this was the one from the 1970's show, it's okay none the less. Putting that aside, the CD has alot good themes and some I thought were hard to get a hold of.
