2 out of 5 stars Quantity Over Quality.......2007-01-15

As a musician myself, I know too well that one of the most important ingredients in ANY performance (live or recorded) is passion. The recordings here generally lack the same passion and sheer drama of the originals. Much of the instrumentation has been reduced to a cheezy, thin, plastic synthesized replica. The performances are simply a watered-down lackluster version of the classic originals. If it were not for the sheer volume of tracks compiled here, I would have rated the comp only "one star".

3 out of 5 stars Mediocre.......2006-05-17

The sound quality for this collection isn't much better than the samples offered by Amazon.

4 out of 5 stars One Hundred Greatest TV Themes.......2005-08-06

I have watched almost all the shows that are on these 4 cd's. Many were made before I started watching TV. Most I've seen once or twice before.

4 out of 5 stars Pretty close to original recordings.......2005-07-24

Definitely not as good as the originals. You'll probably notice the slight differences since it's stuff you saw and listened to every week or everyday in reruns growing up, but it's still an amazing collection.

5 out of 5 stars Really Good Collection.......2004-07-11

I bought this in part because it had soundtracks to tv shows that are unavailable. My husband and I watch aome British programming. Many of the theme songs are for what seems like obscure British shows. That said; it has been enjoyable to hear music that I would normally never hear. Some music does sound tinny; some are very very rich, and some music is derived from actual preformances from the original artists. I think this is worth buying because is has a wonderful blend of music. The pieces are full soundtracks so they includes the parts of the theme song which are often edited out. I think the orchestra's who preformed the music did a great job. I have MonsterMania which redoes the soundtracks to the Godzilla movies. The interpretation is less heavy and stark than the preformance we associate with the original soundtrack; but I regard it as a new way to appreciate the music and all the componets which make the song unique.

5 out of 5 stars Stunning.......2006-07-13

I have always loved soundtracks, the way that a composer uses music to set the mood. But I am still incredibly picky about which soundtracks I buy.

From the first episode of X I knew that I had to have this soundtrack. The essence of the whole series can be felt in this music.

Even if you have never seen an episode this music will move you.

Absolutely stunning.

5 out of 5 stars the incredible X soundtrack.......2005-07-07

First off, I have to say that the instrumental pieces of this score are GORGEOUS, especially the breathtaking "Destiny" which still gives me goosebumps when I hear it-the heart wrenchingly beautiful emotion portrayed fits the sadness of X perfectly.
The vocal pieces are pretty good too-from the fast pasted "Ex Dream" opening theme to the smooth, gentle ending theme.
I haven't heard an anime soundtrack this good since the likes of Escaflowne, and the orchestrational music is enough to rival that of Joe Hisashi (Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away).
Utterly gorgeous, and whether you love the series or not you should give it a go. 5 Stars all around.

5 out of 5 stars A Theatrical Score to a Television Program.......2005-01-29

I feel as though X: Original Soundtrack, Vol. 1 proves that in Japan, painstaking scoring isn't sacrificed even thought the music belongs to a television series. Especially with 'Destiny', many of the songs on this CD possess the depth and sheer mass of a theatrical symphonic score. The level of music matchs that of Samurai X, a movie-quality release of the Rurouni Kenshin series. The opening theme, an electronical rock beat, could sum up the series with its lyrics (practically all in Japanese, though the tone shows the emotion). I'll give my ratings and a small explination for them:

-Opening Theme: eX Dream- 4 stars (I'm not that much a fan of male Japanese singers, though this is an exception; great voice/emotion)

-Destiny: 5 stars (favorite track, broad depth in strings; ominious "battle" anticipation)

-The Two Kamui, The Two Secret Swords: 4 stars (mysterious triangles transforms into a semi-creepy beat; sudden transformation into exciting orchestral beat w/ electric guitar)

-Reckless Run: 4 stars (a chase-scene beat with ominious male voices; electric guitar on occasion, fantastic strings)

-Red Thread: 3 stars (good harp but too long for solo; probably good with series, though I have only read the manga)

-Hyper Battle: 5 stars (eerie horns turns into a Matrix-like chase beat; skin crawling xylophone [possible]; Hitchcockian violin for several seconds)

-There is Always One Future: 4 stars (emotional violin/string ensemble)

-Peaceful Daily Living: 3 stars (least broad/deep of the collection; solo electric keyboard)

-Count Down: 5 stars (ominious drumbeat synonomous to the title manifests into a thrilling, suspenseful tone)

-Encounter: 4 stars (nice quick, light beat with a hint of anticipation/worry; transforms into an electronica-jazzy beat)

-A Suite (Dragons of Heaven): 4 stars (longest song of collection; floating suite with "The Last Crusade" cords at a certain point)

-Destiny [Piano Version]: 4 stars (piano versions often take away from the original, though a good piano solo can be just as powerful as an orchestra; provides poignant "base" sounds)

-Ending Theme: Secret Sorrow- 4 stars (don't like some opening/ending themes; didn't particularly enjoy the vocals though the music was light, dreamy, and enjoyable)

5 out of 5 stars FAVORITE SOUNDTRACK.......2004-11-05

I bought this cd from another website and the booklet is japaneses even the lyrics. It's a great cd though. Is the booklet on this cd (from amazon.com) in english? I'm thinking of getting another one from here.
