4 out of 5 stars A Long Time Ago..........2007-01-12

I bought this CD to play at work for background music and it's great for that. The only thing missing is the usually obligatory 20th Century Fox theme before the main Star Wars theme. Other than that, the City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra and the Crouch End Festival Chorus do a very fine job with Maestro Williams' music, indeed.

5 out of 5 stars Spectacular!.......2007-01-12

I thought this cd was excellent! I bought it as a gift for my brother, who is a huge Star Wars fan, and he loved it. The music reminds me of the best parts of the movies. I think anyone who is a fan should get a copy.

4 out of 5 stars Star Wars Tunes.......2007-01-09

My kids love the Star Wars movies so I bought this hoping we would have something new to listen to in the car. They love it and I love listening to something different. John Williams is genius.

The Star Wars cycle, George Lucas's stellar pop parable cum merchandising blitzkrieg, has long since made history as an unparalleled cinematic-cultural-marketing phenomena; somewhere Billy Jack should be in one envious, ass-kickin' mood. Phantom Menace, easily the most eagerly anticipated film of the '90s, returns to the saga's roots and allows Lucas to flesh out the history of some of the fable's core characters and conjure up a dazzling new cast of cohorts, antagonists, and alien realms for them to interact with and in. Thus, all composer John Williams had to do was essentially reinvent the world's most popular wheel. The film-scoring legend has admirably risen to that daunting challenge, delivering an inventive score whose dynamics should surprise and delight even the most ardent SW fanatic. The Main Title and a few oh-so-sparing bars of a familiar Jedi theme are all that remains from the original trilogy's lexicon, Williams having evolved the saga's musical language, stylistic reach, and orchestral palette with masterful subtlety. The composer's most ambitious surprise is the welcome addition of strong choral elements, which he uses in ways both majestic ("Duel of the Fates") and menacing ("Passage Through the Planet's Core"). And though the film revolves around a young boy (Anakin Skywalker, who will grow to be both corrupted and redeemed as Darth Vader), the only flirtation with cloying sentimentality comes with the innocently loping "Jar Jar's Introduction." In the tradition of the Cantina and Max Rebo's Band of the previous trilogy, Williams and Lucas close out this musical installment with "Augie's Municipal Band," a Carnivale-esque romp that segues grandly into the composer's swelling title music. Williams may be the master of a grand scoring tradition, but Phantom Menace is gratifying evidence that he seldom plays it safe--even when the Force is with him. --Jerry McCulley

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars One of the Best Star War Scores.......2007-04-07

In my opinion this one ranks 3rd after A New Hope and The Empire Strikes Back. It is truely a masterful work. It contains some of John Williams best compositions of his later life. A must for any music fan.

4 out of 5 stars Good sound track.......2007-03-20

The music is good, but I prefer the music from other Star Wars films.

5 out of 5 stars STAR WARS? - NOT without John Williams.......2007-01-18

Probably the greatest living contemporary American composer, John Williams brings life and emotion to all movie soundtracks. I believe George Lucas animates Williams' scores, instead of the other way around; otherwise, Star Wars would just be another science fiction series.

4 out of 5 stars A good thing to have, but..........2007-01-09

If you are a Star Wars fan, you really do need to have this in your collection. If you're not, well, I'd buy this mainly for Duel of the Fates and Anakin's Theme. There are a few tracks that kind of drag, but you can skip them. Still, compared to the cookie-cutter compositions for the average movie (not Star Wars, mind you) this is of superlative quality. Compared to the other Star Wars music, the overall CD falls somewhat short of Star Wars greatness. But I like it. It's not one of my favorites, but it's not like it's a disappointment. I would recommend it.

4 out of 5 stars The reason to see Episode I in the first place.......2006-12-30

"Duel of the Fates"! There are a few tedious tracks, such as "Passage Through the Planet Core", but these are easily skipped. "Anakin's Theme" was sadly not explored in later movies, as it is a wonderful foreshadowing of what Anakin is to become (see the end of the phrase, which is a callback to "The Imperial March"). "Jar Jar's Theme" is, well, appropriate. It is also the kind of theme that makes me hang my head in shame for playing an oboe. But where this score surpasses expectation is in the fight music. Much different from the original 'Star Wars' trilogy, Williams has found a formula for cohesive battle music. It makes sense, it builds, and it's damn exciting--my favourite is "The Flag Parade". The other highlight from the score apart from "Duel of the Fates", which I really needn't say any more about, is "The Droid Invasion", a theme that is repeated and developed in later movies (it becomes "The Arena", in 'Episode II').

Released during the era of leisure suits and pet rocks, the film Superman: The Movie has aged about as well. But the often-clumsy charms of Richard Donner's cartoonish, hit-and-miss take on the Man of Steel was blessed with at least one superlative artistic effort: John Williams's epic score. The composer's Oscar-nominated music (coming on the heels of Star Wars and Close Encounters) was a wall-to-wall heroic symphony, rife with memorable melodies and ominous arrangements. Almost every original cut on this soundtrack appears in an expanded version, supplemented by nearly a dozen previously unreleased cues and alternate takes. Featuring a deluxe slipcase and extensive, new liner notes, this is the definitive release of one of Maestro Williams's greatest scores. --Jerry McCulley

Customer Reviews:

1 out of 5 stars Original 1978 Recording?.......2007-04-04

FIVE STAR FOR MUSIC. 1 STAR FOR AUDIO. Ok I've wanted this recording for almost 4 years. Now I got it. I am a discerning listener. This soundtrack is not the best quality. Tape hiss is very pronounced. You can tell it's taken directly from a cassette recording. I have other digital recordings of this music. They are miles ahead of this cd. Soundtrack is on the Rhino label. What? Rhino is not known for high fidelity. So it is very deceiving for one to buy a cd thinking it's John Williams conducting on a new recording in 1998 or whenever. It's the actual 1978 recording. Now let me unleash my rage. This thing sounds as if it's recorded with a single microphone in a bathroom, at a truck stop. Yes the music is phenomenal. My favorite track is #2 Krypton. I was hoping to discover some new hidden melodies that I've never heard in previous recording (original 1978). Nope. This IS the 1978 recording. So I will be getting the Debney recording just so I can hear what I'm missing. Love the music. Just can't hear it. ALL OF IT! But cool booklet. I can't listen to a booklet. But I got it. Whoopee.

5 out of 5 stars AWESOME! John Williams shows again why he's the master of movie scores.......2006-08-31

After over a year of trying to find a seller of this fine soundtrack, I finally found it! It is high time that the full score was released on CD.
The original soundtrack release from 1978, while still an excellent collection, was sadly lacking in several of the best cues from the film. Most important of these was Track 12 (Disc 1) in which the helicopter crashes on the Daily Planet's roof and dangles precariously above the street. Williams builds on it, introducing Superman's theme into it as Clark Kent runs across the street, then rips open his shirt to reveal the 'S' - the symbol of the House of El - then enters the revolving door & exits as Superman. At the end of this is one of my favorite cues; the Superman theme is played as the Man of Steel appears above Metropolis, flying over the city on the hunt for criminals. 'Crime of the Century' (Track 6, Disc 2) was one of my favorite cues; this one portrayed the missile convoy as it made its way along the freeway, where Luthor staged the accident to get his cronies close enough to sabotage the missiles. There are too many new tracks to list here that should have been included the first time around, just a lack of space precluded this from happening.

5 out of 5 stars Is John Williams Superman???.......2006-08-20

After listening to the CD, John Williams must be Superman. By far, the greatest movie score ever written.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent!.......2006-08-10

Other than the over kill of "Can you read my mind", an excellent collection.

5 out of 5 stars Hector, about the liner notes..........2006-07-14

I have the previous edition, and the notes that came with it were nestled next to the CD in a thick booklet (with a cover of Reeve in front of an American flag) that was large enough for the slipcase cover, but too big to fit into the CD case front. Otherwise, the one-sheet cover that came with your soundtrack is identical to the slipcase version.

4 out of 5 stars Very good show which I hadn't heard of..........2007-05-13

I was very into theatre in high school and college and thought I was up on most musicals, but had never heard of this show until recently. It's comprised of three short stories which were adapted into the musical format. The first two stories are tied together very well, although the last seems tacked on. But the songs are catchy and it's fairly easy to figure out what's happening simply by listening to the songs. There are two songs which are tied for my favoritism: "It's a Fish" from Adam and Eve and "You Are Not Real" from Passionella. Check it out.

5 out of 5 stars THE APPLE TREE (1966 ORIGINAL BROADWAY CAST).......2007-04-10

IT WAS EXACTLY WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR. I WENT TO THE REVIVAL OF THE APPLE TREE ON BROADWAY IN NEW YORK CITY AND LOVED THE SCORE BUT THERE WASN'T A SOUNDTRACK AVAILABLE SO I PURCHASED THE ORIGINAL VERSION AND I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!

5 out of 5 stars I still remember these songs after 40 years.......2006-11-05

I saw this show on the stage when it first ran, and have never forgotten it. The key to a good Broadway show is this question: Are you humming the songs when you leave the theatre? In the case of The Apple Tree, the answer is a resounding "Yes." I have been waiting 40 years for this show to be revived, and I have tickets for the revival opening in December at the Roundabout. I hope not to be disappointed, for the trio of Barbara Harris, a very young Alan Alda, and the late Larry Blyden were terrific. The three-part concept can be jarring because just when you're getting into the story, it ends -- but just enjoy the kind of songs they just don't write anymore.

3 out of 5 stars Really 2.5.......2006-07-25

SO this is another show thats actually three one acts. The first "The Diary of Adam and Eve" is the best by far. It has really cute songs and nice plot. Thats the only reason I rounded this up from 2.5 to 3 stars. The rest of the show is nothing great. "Lady and Tiger" is short and boring. And "Passionella" is exactly what it sounds like, a knock off of Cinderella. But hey, its a good show for collectors and "The Diary of Adam and Eve" is nice. Favorite Song: "Its A Fish"

1 out of 5 stars Boring material that you forget very easily.......2006-06-29

According to some reviews, this musical was supposed to be very good and I bought it. Unfortunately, I was quite dissapointed. It's composed of three different tales, the first one referring to the Adam & Eve biblical story. The lyrics here are very silly and tedious. The second tale, "The Lady or the Tiger?" contains songs that are simply awful, probably the worst ever written for a Broadway show. The third story, "Passionella", contains music that does nothing to make things better. The album contains a good informative booklet in English, German, French & Italian (as Sony uses to do)which says that Time magazine defined this show as "three moldy figs". I entirely agree. I would recommend this musical to those suffering from insomnia: it will put them to sleep right away.

5 out of 5 stars The Second Best Star Wars Sountrack.......2007-04-07

Although the original is still the best this soundtrack is a very close second. I personally don't see how any classical music fan could pass up this CD.

5 out of 5 stars Great Soundtrack! But I got a question . . . .......2005-12-30

This ISN't Joseph. I am his oldest DAUGHTER.

I don't have it yet. So, can someone tell me the exact name of "Luke's Theme?" I've been looking for it, but I never found it. Email me at WaterFaerie44@aol.com if you know it. Thank you.

5 out of 5 stars The best film in the Star Wars trilogy is also the best soundtrack in the trilogy.......2005-09-11

I have been a Star Wars fan since the original Star Wars was released back in 1977 and was still called Star Wars and not Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope. But I became a dedicated fan in 1980 when The Empire Strikes Back was released. Not only is it the best film of all six Star Wars films, but it also the best soundtrack in, dare I say it, film history. John Williams is a musical genius who can produce so many emotions with his music. And with The Empire Strikes Back he is able to express sadness, anger, loss, love, fear and tragedy with some great pieces of music. My favorite piece on this soundtrack is The Imperial March. The moment I heard that piece of music chills went down my spine. Every time I hear that piece of music I expect to see Darth Vader march down the hall. It is a strong piece of music along with the other tracks on this two CD set. This is a great addition to a CD collection along with the other Star Wars soundtracks. But if you had to buy only one, then The Empire Strikes Back is the Star Wars soundtrack to own.

5 out of 5 stars A Tremendously better sequel and equally great soundtrack!.......2005-07-13


Empire is my favorite Star Wars film, I'll say that now. I think the deeply emotional stories behind each character are gripping and beautifully shown. The soundtrack meets every expectation and blows you away. Each track holds unique and beautiful themes. The love story is brought into music without a flaw, the romance spread clearly through the music.

Along with the original theme for the empire (which is on disc 2 as (#1) The Imperial March and in many other tracks) and the theme generally associated with Luke (which also accompanies Obi Wan in many tracks), we see the introduction of new characters and new themes.

Track 2 on Disc 2 is Yoda's theme, a sweeping and graceful piece which acurately portrays the aging and brilliant Jedi Master through John Williams's genius. In many instances, we also see Luke's theme underwritten into this music as he learns new skills.

My favorite by far is the addition of the love theme for Han and Leia, which is written in various forms into most of the tracks (Premiring fully in Track 9 Han Solo and the Princess onm disc 1). It is a sweeping, emotional theme that touches anyone very deeply. On disc 1, track 5 The Battle of Hoth shows this them clearly near the end, as well as most of the scenes on Bespin on disc one.

We also see a collection of most of the old themes and most new ones when the characters reach Bespin, the love theme, Luke's theme, and one to fit the city itself.

The culmination of these make for a sweeping, enchanting finale where Lando and Chewie leave Luke and Leia behind.

Some of the best tracks include:
Disc 1 - Track 5 - The Battle of Hoth
Disc 1 - Track 6 - The Asteroid Field
Disc 1 - Track 9 - Han Solo and the Princess
Essentially all of Disc 2

Any fan of John Williams or Star Wars should absolutely love this soundtrack!

5 out of 5 stars "John Williams Strike's Back".......2005-06-20

This is definatly a must have for any Star Wars fan. It is a great two disc set that has all the songs from Empire Strikes Back! Warning: This soundtrack is very dark and creepy. My favorite tracks are 1. Darth Vader's Theme, Yoda's Theme, Yoda and the Force, Clash of Lightsabers and "Training of a Jedi Knight/The Magic Tree". Also five stars for the production of this CD. I'm so glad John Williams went back and remixed all the songs. It brings more quallity to this fantastic 2 CD set!

Thank You John Williams for yet another fantastic effort

5 out of 5 stars JOHN WILLIAM'S LEGENDARY STAR WARS SOUNDTRACK ALBUM IS NOW RECORDED AND BROUGHT INTO THE DISCO SOUND CRAZE IN 1977. .......2007-05-06

I will be writing a review on the legendary album entitled "STAR WARS AND OTHER GALACTIC FUNK BY MECO" by one of Rock's most talented artists ever. I give you M-E-C-O! "STAR WARS AND OTHER GALACTIC FUNK" was originally released in 1977 on Vinyl/LP and Cassette on the Mercury Records label in association with PolyGram Records Inc. and Hip-O Records which is distributed by Universal Music & Video Distribution, Inc. As always, if I hear any new additional information concerning this legendary album or the artist, I will edit this review immediately so that you the consumer will get the overall best informative and most accurate review possible.

As we all well know, THE BEE GEES would forever change the Rock n' Roll world by revolutionizing the Disco craze of the 1970's with the Disco music soundtrack to the legendary 1977 movie "SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER." Also in 1977, "STAR WARS," the very first original movie would appear on the theater movie screen and forever change the entire movie industry in special effects and how movie soundtracks would forever play a part in the movie itself. However, the artist I'm about to review for you now had many other different ideas in mind as to how the 1977 "STAR WARS" soundtrack would be presented and brought into the 70's world and age of the Disco movement. Meco would go ito the recording studio and record perhaps, one of the greatest special effects Disco albums in Disco's entire history. As time went by, Meco would emerge and come out of the recording studio with the completely finished acetate and deliver the finished product to their record label and employer, Mercury Records. Mercury Records would release the finished product as the legendary "STAR WARS AND OTHER GALATIC FUNK" album in 1977. In my opinion, other than THE BEE GEES, the "STAR WARS AND OTHER GALACTIC FUNK" album would truly symbolize what the true spirit of Disco music was really about.

It is now time to let the music of MECO to speak for itself and back it up by doing all of the talking. The "STAR WARS AND OTHER GALACTIC FUNK" album from 1977 begins with the near 16:00 and original long version of the most breathtaking and blistering orchestrated music and special effects combined, recorded and mixed in with the special blend Disco sound, "Star Wars," the soulful funkish "Other Galactic Funk," the 7" edit version "Star Wars Theme/Cantina Band" and the 12" Disco mix "Star Wars Theme/Cantina Band." May I also add that you have to listen to this album to believe it.

Overall, this is one hell of an album worth checking out and seeking further research and information into especially if you are a hardcore diehard MECO fan or a devout music collector. As for all of the curious newcomers and new beginners that are not quite familiar with the Disco sound and music of MECO or what the whole Disco craze of the 1970's was all about, I would highly suggest in purchasing the "SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER" soundtrack along with this album. However, there are many other MECO compilation albums that you might want to research further into before you make your decision as to which MECO album is right for your musical needs and tastes. Either way you choose, you will have taken a giant step in owning and starting your very own Disco music collection. You can do all of your researching and album purchases either on Amazon com or your nearest local Borders Books and Music store. If you ever get a chance, purchase this album. You'll be happy and satisfied that you did.

I would like to highly recommend purchasing this album to own as a valuable and important part of his or her own personal Disco music collection. This album has already proven to stand the test of time and will always be around to be enjoyed, appreciated and cherished for many years to come, NOW AND FOREVER. This is one great legendary album that no hardcore music fan or devout music collector would want to be without.

In closing, Mercury Records would release the MECO "STAR WARS AND OTHER GALACTIC FUNK" album to highly critically acclaim in 1977. MECO would continue on with recording other great Disco music soundtracks such as "SUPERMAN" and other "STAR WARS" soundtracks that were still yet to come. The importance and contribution that MECO will have made to Disco music as well as music in general, is the further advancement in special effects in the recording technology process. With this in mind, MECO will forever leave their place and mark in Rock n' Roll history and will never be forgotten. So here's to you MECO. Thanks for the great memories with hopefully, many more still to come. Keep Persevering. Keep The Faith. And as the saying goes, "AND THE REST IS ROCK N' ROLL HISTORY," need I say more? Thanks for reading my review and I truly hope that you have enjoyed reading it as much as I have truly enjoyed writing it for your reading pleasure. I also deeply hope that all of you will read all of my other reviews in the near future when time permits. MECO RULES! Long Live Rock n' Roll. Rock out always and take it easy. Forever in Rock, John L.

5 out of 5 stars Me go Meco.......2007-04-13

In solidarity with the others here I am thrilled to find this on cd at Aamazan after missing my 2 (count em 2) lps of this I went thru. And the marching band of Other Galactic Funk is still one of the great anomalies of disco.

3 out of 5 stars Star funkadelic . . . and then some!.......2007-03-20

I must admit, I do agree with some reviewers who think it a "bit much". I once had the original album on disco vinyl, and remember playing it. Now that I am recollecting some light-hearted music of the past, I find that I am totally satisfied with the 7:35 DJ promo-only 12" version track provided on cd compilation "The Casablanca Records Story".
For those looking for alternative Star Wars disco, look no further than the Boris Midney Anthology, for a latin style "hoppin" beat.
By the way, you can see the Meco album cover quickly towards the end of "Thank God It's Friday" when DJ of Zoo Disco putting his albums away, humming "last dance."

5 out of 5 stars AWESOME.......2006-11-10

This brought me back to the time when Star Wars came out. Man, what a time
It's a must have for any true SW fan.

4 out of 5 stars Meco Madness.......2006-10-10

For nostalgia fans only!! This was a huge hit back in the 1970's and it's great fun today. I wore the original LP version out back in the day. Thanks to Hip-O, it's back!!

Amazon.com

Granddaddy of the Hollywood studios, Paramount Pictures is rightfully proud of its century of contributions to both American cinema and the art of film scoring. But the first disc of this 43-track double-CD anthology merely hints at the studio's musical peaks, blithely skipping through its first seven decades in just 17 tracks. Indeed, the package as a whole seems more interested in marketing its post-'70s catalog of hits and blockbusters than it does in paying real homage to history and roots. Even rarities like Double Indemnity and The Lost Weekend are served up via modern budget-line rerecordings, as is Ennio Morricone's epochal Once upon a Time in the West). Contemporary recordings of Aaron Copland's rare score to The Heiress and Franz Waxman's great Sunset Blvd. fare better, but soundtrack fans may miss the originals. The studio's rich pop-crossover successes in the '60s are documented via Breakfast at Tiffany's "Moon River" and excerpts from Romeo and Juliet and Love Story, while successful franchises like Star Trek and Raiders also get their due. Too often the '90s-focused second disc only underscores some uncomfortable trends in contemporary scoring--orchestral nervous tics punctuated by booming crescendos, treacly piano Muzak--and makes one wonder if the music of The Rugrats Movie and Lara Croft: Tomb Raider are really film music milestones. --Jerry McCulley

5 out of 5 stars Great Movies have Great Soundtracks!.......2007-05-10

If you love movies and movie music, you can't go wrong with this two cd Paramount Anniversary set.

2 out of 5 stars Only Disc 1 Is Worth Anything.......2006-07-19

Normally I have a lot to say in my reviews, but not this time. The main problem with this collection is that all the most memorable film scores are just on one disc, with the second used mostly to play out stuff from the last ten years that, really, musically isn't very memorable and only includes three pieces anyone will recognize just because, like the movies they come from, they're based on old TV shows - The Addams Family, Star Trek, and Mission: Impossible.

And that brings up another problem. With all due respect to the late Jerry Goldsmith, who has provided some truly great classic movie scores, was it REALLY necessary to include TWO versions of the SAME Star Trek march in this collection? This seems evocative of the milk-it-for-all-its-worth attitude Paramount has had lately toward its now-tarnished crown-jewel franchise. Where's James Horner's theme music from Star Trek II and III? If they're gonna put Star Trek on here twice, they should have provided a little diversity. It wouldn't have taken much, I'm sure.

I'm sure that Paramount's had other films with far more memorable music (even Harold Faltermeyer's Top Gun Anthem could have helped on Disc 2). This just seems like a lazy attempt at something that really could have been great.

2 out of 5 stars More of a propaganda CD.......2002-10-30

There are some really great songs on this 2 CD set. However, those really great songs seem to be lightly interspersed amongst a large number of forgettable songs whose main purpose seems to be to remind you of those movies you enjoy(ed) so much.

It seems a little odd to me that out of 90 years of film making the most memorable scores have been largely released within the last few years. I was pleased to find themes from the Godfather, Indiana Jones and Witness. I was perplexed with the inclusion of songs from Rugrats, both Mission Impossible movies (one would have been more than enough) and Tomb Raider (memorable???).

This is my own personal bias, but I do prefer movie soundtracks that evoke a feeling of excitement. With this collection I just couldn't get excited. I kept finding myself being let down by songs that didn't in some way complement the preceeding song.

There are certainly some great tracks here, but overall I was disappointed. My advise would be to look elsewhere.

4 out of 5 stars Great selection of Film Hits!.......2002-09-25

This one was a pleasant surprise! I thought- how could any CD that had "Baby Elephant Walk" be all that good? This one is. Lots of great scores- classics and a few hidden treasures. After hearing the beautiful title score for "Children of a Lesser God", I had to buy the entire soundtrack - very soothing. There are a few that may seem too overplayed ("Love Story", "Raiders of the Lost Ark",), but most are a welcome addition to any compilation. Try NOT loving "Building the Barn" from "Witness" or the "Hymn to the Fallen" from "Saving Private Ryan". Hours of great listening.

2 out of 5 stars Older recordings, main themes only.......2002-08-27

This is a great album concept, but I really wish Paramount had re-recorded these scores as they deserve to be heard. The tracks range from 1944 to the present, and the older recordings sound just like the cleaned-up older recordings that they are.

I would also personally have enjoyed more "secondary" music themes (otherwise it becomes like reading book summaries that always only quote the opening paragraph), and I could easily have done without the "pop" tunes (like Baby Elephant Walk and the Rugrats theme). In fact, it would have been very nice to listen to an album comprised of tracks chosen for their strong musical value rather than apparently for their box office and/or hit song popularity. But, to be fair, that may be precisely what draws some people to this CD set.

Film score music constitutes the single most significant body of classical music of our time. I hope some of these tracks will entice listeners to buy entire soundtracks and listen to some of these works as a whole.

This is a great CD for any fan of the Boston Pops - especially those who have seen or been to their annual 4th of July performance - or for those who appreciate patriotic music. Many of the pieces they play at the Pops Goes the 4th concert are on the CD. My personal favorite is the 1812 Overture for its live cannons.

5 out of 5 stars A Real Treat!.......2007-02-16

As someone who works from home, this is a wonderful collection to put on during the day. The beautiful arrangements of some of film's most memorable music is a treat to listen to day in and day out. I was one of those looking for music from the "Cousins" soundtrack. I'm so much happier to have found this CD with more great music than I could've bargained for. I'm very glad to have this in my collection!
