Reviews

Not the original recordings...
1
By RainOfSteel

I am a fan of the original recordings of the material listed in this album. I checked the samples available for almost all of the material listed here, and not one was an original recording. The versions I sampled were all hollow-sounding, tin-backgrounded, and off-beat. (If there are any oriiginal recordings among the samples I did not check, my apologies, but I had to stop listening after a certain point.) If you like odd-sounding alternate recordings that carry no flavor or spirit of the originals, this may be for you. For those who are fans of original recordings, skip this.

UNIQUE AMAZING MUSIC
How can you screw up the theme to Buckaroo Banzai??

By AI_Joe

It's already made with synths! This joker must have some sort of cheap casio and a four track recorder setup in his mother's basement. Did this guy even listen to the original music to Buckaroo Banzai?? The orchestration part is okay, but the electro part, wow - most of the instrumental parts from the original aren't followed. I wanted the original piece (or a close resemblance), but this is all iTunes had to offer. Avoid it. It's not even good in a bad cheesy disco type of way.
SG-1

I'm not sure about all of this album, but the SG-1 theme sounded good to me, even though it was $. 99 for 1:02 of music.
Don't Bother - It's BAD

I bought the first two volumes on CD along time ago off of a bargain rack and was severely disappointed. Most of the tracks are TERRIBLE adaptions on some electro synthetic thingy. Search farther and find the originals or at least a decent version from the Boston or Cincinnation Pops orchestras!!!!
Lame.

This dude probably still sleeps in his mom's basement. Or in her bed. At any rate, he made the Re-Animator theme like a They Might Be Giants children's song, and for that I will never forgive him.

FIRST IF YOU WANT A GREAT RE-CREATION OF THE JAMES BOND THEME LOOK UP ALIEN COWBOYS AND ITS THE SECOND TRACK OFF THE ESCAPE FROM AVALON ALBUM.THIS IS NOT THE GREATEST.
The Best

It's as good as John Williams'
Disco Inferno... It BURNS!

By Scuzzbopper

Ok, maybe there's one or two that are passable, but these synthesizer-heavy re-renditionings of orchestral pieces isn't a good idea. If you're looking for real copies of these songs, keep looking for a collection that uses the original recordings, or at least a good orchestra that is an attempt to keep the original sound of the pieces.
Cheesy, Don't Buy

Man, I wish I had read the reviews before purchasing a track off of this CD...everything about it is a poor performance and like other reviews have said, it's corny and cheesy-sounding.
