The recordings on this CD span several years in Kunzel's work with the Cincinnati Pops. The recording quality is first rate. The CD opens with a cut called "The Sounds of the West" complete with western sound effects. The mooing cows and whinnying horses were so real that our dog made a bee-line to the speakers on my system. The selection is varied enough to provide something of interest to about any listener.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great covers and sound effects, May 6, 1999

A great test for a stereos, including subwoofers. Chiller, Also Sprach Zarathustra, Grand Canyon Suite, and Jurassic Lunch will put any sub to the test. Telarc's digitial recordings are top-notch!

3.0 out of 5 stars Not Bad Just Average, October 16, 2001

This is not a bad CD but I thought the selections could have been better. I think you are better off buying the source CDs. Erich Kunzel's output is substantial. Most of Kunzel's CDs follow a particular theme or follow a genre when it comes to film scores. I think you are better off to go with the type of music that you generally like instead of this potpourri. You usually can't go wrong with any of Erich Kunzel's recordings.
