If you are like me (a die-hard fan of the hit CBS television series) then you will want to own a copy of the soundtrack. This awesome CD includes 19 amazing tracks in all, which were heard throughout the show. Perhaps the best song is "Ancient Voices" which is the theme song of the show. The emotions that composers Russ Landau and David Vanacore put into the songs are simply breathtaking. In short, the show was great and the music is even better.

If you love Survivor, you'll love this CD!! Excellent...BUT, beware that it is from the first series and while much of the music has carried forward to the 2nd, 3rd, 4th and probably 5th installments - the new music from those seasons is NOT included. Desperately could use a follow up! But this will satisfy you and bring back all the island memories!!

I love the Tv show Survivor and the music works as background music for a show,but to listen to this on a cd is horrific.With such low quality in the music this soundtrack should be for Big Brother

I am probably one of the last seven people on the planet who had not seen "Survivor" until after I heard the CD. Listening to "Ancient Voices" washed me in sea of images, nonetheless, and it was pretty heady stuff. And, yeah, I caught the first show of the new season and it was a lot of fun.

It's a pretty extraordinary track, mixing the ancient with the modern, all wrapped up in that strange otherworldly package that is simultaneously both grand opera in its "over-the-top" scope and the best of modern composing in its discipline. Oh, and it's a pretty nifty rumble in the jungle to boot.

It feels sort of like zooming across the radio dial of history within the truncated, steroid-pumping timeframe of television theme writing. And my kid says you can dance to it real good.

Russ Landau makes ear movies. I like that just fine.

all i can say is this is the perfect way to relieve your survivor withdrawls. I know mine where massive when this hit series ended. I hope you all enjoy it as i did

Unfortunately, the next series of Survivor episodes are a good ways away, what is a fan supposed to do until then? Enjoy some of the previous series finer details, of course! Few people really understand just how important the Survivor soundtrack was to the show. The haunting beat of the theme built half of the show's suspense! Now, you can enjoy the exotic sounds of the show yourself with this soundtrack! Something really great about the album is that every song is loaded with suspense and puts you on edge. Even the relaxing songs still have that spark to them! If you have one of those alarm clocks that will play a CD instead of a buzzer, use this CD! It'll definately get you going in the morning. Just make sure that come breakfast time you eat some toast or something, not a rat!

Exactly what I was after - this cd of the Survivor series music is great. We used it for a team workshop and everyone commented on how good it was to have the actual music from the tv show.

This is a great buy for any Survivor fan! Every song is worth listening to over and over again.

RUSS LANDAU AND DAVID VANACORE DID A WONDERFUL JOB ON THIS CD. SURVIVOR IS THE ULTIMATE TV SHOW AND THE CD, HAS MUSIC ON IT THAT REALLY TAKES YOU BACK TO THE ISLAND "PALAU TIGIA" WHERE IT ALL STARTED. THE CD.HAS MUSIC THAT KEEPS THE SURVIVOR IN ALL OF US ALIVE

I bought it being the HUGE survivor fan and was at first dissapointed. I skipped to the ones I quickly recognized. I was kinda dissapointed at first. And then I really listened and love it all. Yeah, there are a few that are ok, but most are really musical. If you don't typically buy sound tracks, this may not be for you either. Otherwise - I recommend it!
