More than just a good listen... it stir the soul! .......2007-05-31

Soon as you put the CD on, you are transported to another time... another place. The music sooths, as the words spoken by the beast penetrate to the deepest part of your soul. You're emotionally spent, yet feel more alive than ever after your journey.

I bought this years ago when it first came out on Cassette (gives you an idea how long ago that was) I listened to it so many times the tape wore out. I just ordered the CD.... I can't wait for the journey to begin again...thank you Vincent!

I Loved this Show and this Album.......2006-06-09

I bought the CD today as a backup in case my original signed by Ron Perlman CD wears out. I keep waiting for the owners of this series to release at least the first 2 season on DVD. I have no interest in owning the 3rd season when the show broke my heart. I wish someone would redo this show in it's original conception as a movie or a TV series. I loved the show and was a great fan of the Love and Hope shown by Catherine and Vincent.

Of Love And Hope.......2006-04-07

Hi! I bought "Of Love & Hope" last November, through Amazon.com, and I must say, I enjoy it! However; the producers of this album, which I love, should have used another introduction instead of just the MUSIC. Why not use the main theme, where Vincent and Catherine introduce each other? THAT would have been great!! After all, Cathy was also a great character on the show!

I hereby recommend this album to all Beauty and the Beast fans out there. I have listened to it so often, that now, I can recite more poems by heart! BATB FOREVER!

Lushly Romantic!.......2005-09-04

I was a great fan of the TV series, "Beauty and the Beast" and owned the cassette version of "Of Love and Hope" in which Ron Purlman as Vincent reads poetry by Shakespeare, Lord Byron, Shelly, Rilke and other greats, interspersed with beautiful music, mostly from the soundtrack of the series. As I love beautiful music and beautiful words, I counted this tape among my treasures. When the tape eventually became damaged, I truly was distraught. I am delighted to now own the CD, which brought me instant pleasure which can only continue for the rest of my life.

Moves me to tears..........2005-07-06

I actually have this on cassette, bought years ago before television network executives butchered this incredibly beautiful show, and dug it out of storage recently. Interestingly enough, I found that I had forgotten none of it. Never has music spoken so eloquently to my heart, nor represented a television show so clearly and wonderfully. Ron Perlman's "Vincent" voice, interpreting the classical literary selections in this, is sensual, articulate, undeniably romantic. It's one of the most unusual collections of music and poetry I've ever come across, a fitting and fine representation of the show.
My favorite is the opening theme of the series, with lyrics sung and "Vincent's" "No one, not even the rain, has such small hands" intonation.
The television show and it's tragic, other-worldly love story was too perfect to last long on tv. I'm glad that fans such as myself have been able to hold onto rememberances of the show such as this marvelous, sweeping score. I only wish that it could be re-released on Cd, along with dvds of the series. Fans have been keeping the magic alive all these years; it's time we were recognized.

Beautiful Poetry Wonderfully Read By Ron Perlman!.......2005-10-15

This is a really good CD. Beauty and The Beast was one of my favorite TV shows and when I heard about this CD I bought it. The CD is mostly poetry that is beautifully read by Ron Perlman who played Vincent and there are a couple of musical selections and I especially love the wonderful instrumental theme and though this CD is out of print I recommend buying it if you can find it!

BEST EVER!!!!.......2004-09-13

I saw the series, I bought the videos that were available and the CD, and never forgot it! I still play it and cry over it. I AGREE WHOLEHEARTEDLY WITH ALL HERE WHO GAVE IT A FIVE STAR RATING!!! Ron recites the poetry perfectly- with meaning, and the beautiful music accompanies it also perfectly. Brings back the wonderful memories of the Series, which I thought was BEST SHOW EVER ON TV!!! IMO

Of love and hope.......2004-04-20

Having had the vinyl version of this album, I was delighted to find in CD form. The choice of poems, the gentle voice of "Vincent" (Ron Perlman) reading to us and the soft music that perfectly matches the topic of the poems is a joy to the ear. This is a must album whether one is a fan or not of the TV show, or a fan of poetry. May this album be available again for all to listen!

This first time I listened to this soundtrack back in the mid- 90's I was hooked. I loved the series and Ron Perlman's voice was simultaneously loving and seductive. It broke my heart when I had to return the tape to the friend who lent it to me. I went to sleep every night listening to the haunting music - it soothed and comforted me and reminded me that there was love and romance in the world. Hearing 'Vincent' read helped me develop a love of poetry I never thought to have.

I tried everything I could to find another copy, CD or tape, it didn't matter but I never found one. I beg Amazon to re-stock this CD and I am sure they will have every success with it.
