Best Scifi movie of the 60's and beyond.......2003-10-28

This is my all time favourite scifi movie of all time, next to the trek series. The music is brilliant and really brings out the emotion, and Rod Taylor's escapades as he stuggles with the morlocks and Weena.....I recommend this CD and movie to all. Dont judge the movie by its cover or because its a little dusty, The time machine is a masterpiece!

Great CD.......2003-07-24

Excellent soundtrack. Well recorded (considering how old it is). Overall: EXCELLENT.

Classic Score for a Wonderful Movie.......2003-02-22

Musical scores either engage you or hide behind the recesses of your mind in the action. This stirring Russell Garcia score does both. It brings out the emotions when it needs to and, for a better word, "adorns" this wonderful movie when it has to.

After listening, all of the memories of the movie came pouring back. Of course, I own the video, too. But it is wonderful to finally hear it in this format.

For years, I was dogged by a sneaking suspicion about one particular 5-note "motive" that Mr. Garcia uses in the Main Theme. It is the lilting "after-though" of the theme.

Finally, tonight after listening to Tchaikovsky's "The Tempest" on the radio, I realized where I had heard this before. I certainly recommend any fan of the TIME MACHINE score to have a listen to the whole of this other score. You will be pleasantly surprised at the Tchaikovsky version and development of that motive.

Normally, this sort of friendly cut-and-paste annoys me, but for some reason, Mr. Garcia's score uses it in such a wonderful place in his score and I don't mind one bit.

But it is neat to finally know - after ALL these years - just where that "catchy" motive was first heard. Just some minor trivia there for us TIME MACHINE fans.

I recommend this wholeheartedly to those who were equally stirred by the movie....which I can return to repeatedly - and I recommend - as well. Enjoy and reminisce!

After all, you have 'all the time in the world'.

I would love to rate this CD.....................2003-01-17

I would love to rate this CD....... However, the seller sent me the wrong disk, which may not be entirely his fault. You see, there were two movies of the SAME name made. They are Both H.G.Wells' "The Time Machine", and they are both "Original Motion Picture Soundtracks." However, the composer for the first film is Russell Garcia and the composer for the second is Klaus Badelt. The first disk also has a track of music from "Atlantis: The Lost Continent".

The disk from the first film is the one I wanted, but I got the disk from the second film. I clicked on the picture from the first film and looked at the music titles that were offered and every thing seemed to be correct, but I still got the WRONG disk. Please do not get me wrong. The music from the second film is very well done with a full orchestra and I do not mind keeping it. I rate the "wrong" disk with five stars even though it is NOT the one I thought I had ordered. But now, how do I get the one I really wanted. If I click on the same picture again, will I get the same wrong disk?.

Beautiful music!.......2002-09-14

I've always loved the background music of this movie and now i have the CD and i'm pretty impressed. The one very noticeable difference is the opening number. It doesn't have the same power of lows as the film itself which makes me think that this cast recording must have been the original orchestrations before the end product of the film.When i do play this CD i find myself acting along to the movie,,,,i guess i've seen the movie way to many times. Never-the-less it's a great CD and after all these years i'm glad i was able to find it on Amazon. After all if you can't find it on Amazon then it must not exist.
