When it comes to morphing, Power Rangers producer Haim Saban is no slouch himself, having seen his efforts at translating and marketing a '70s Japanese kids' action show originally called Dinosaur Task Force Zyuranger blossom into a billion-dollar pop-culture empire. This soundtrack chronicles the musical side of the Saban/Power Rangers saga, collecting 16 tracks that span the 1990s' "Go, Go Power Rangers" through the show's Turbo and Zeo phases to its more recent Wild Force incarnation. For the uninitiated, the music here is a long way from cutesy Hanna-Barbera jingles; Saban (who's credited with cowriting many of the tracks) and his studio sidemen have concocted convincing facsimiles of everything from bracing, metallic techno-thrash to harmony-driven modern rock and the swaggering hip-hop of "I Will Rescue You." Powered largely by thunderous bass and drums and punctuated by screaming guitar solos, it's an unlikely bastion for Metallica-lite speed-metal sensibilities, but one that fits its flashing spandex heroes to a "T." --Jerry McCulley

"The Best of Power Rangers"? I don't think so!.......2005-03-26
Somic old, Somicthing New, Somthing borrowed, something blue.......2004-07-14
Power Rangers Wild Force Theme - This sounds close to the orginal, though I haven't heard much of the themes between PRiS and PR:DT.
Best of the Best of the Best - Sounds like one of the fight songs, its okay
Power Rangers Turbo, Go! - ANOTHER joke like "Go Go Power Rangers"
I Will Rescue You - New, different, the first song on this CD that impressed me
Hope For the World, Power Rangers Zeo, and Go Gold Ranger - Can be found on the Power Rangers Turbo CD. Good because that soundtrack is hard to get anymore. Bad because I heard it all before.
Here Comes the Power Again - Poorly named, this is NOTHING like the song that was on the Turbo soundtrack. This should of been named "Here come the Rangers"
Enemies Beware, Invincible - Turbo Soundtrack again
New Rangers to the Rescue - A new one that is good to hear.
Calling for a Hero - Turbo again.
Give Me a Sign - New one that follows the theme of "I Will Rescue You"
Big Bang, Unite - And we end with more Turbo orginals.
Final Thoughts: If you don't have the Turbo Soundtrack, get this. If you're looking for the orginal PR songs, or have the Turbo soundtrack, or simply don't like the new music, save your money.
