4 out of 5 stars 4.5 star Hits album.......2006-10-11

With only 3 albums in the early 90's, the 4 man group from North Carolina, Jodeci, was one of the best R&B groups of their time, and maybe one of the best ever. Being a fan of rap I don't have many R&B CD's (maybe a dozen) but this is one I had to own. With 16 songs, you get some of their best as a group. Trax 1-4 are from "Forever My Lady" (1991), Track #5 is off MTV Unplegged album and is a remake of a Stevie Wonder song, Trax 6-9 are from "Diary of a Mad Band" (1993) and trax 12 & 13 are remixes of songs off that album, and trax 10, 11, 14 ,16 are from "The Show, The Hotel, The Afterparty" (1995) and #15 is a remix off that album. of the 16, 2 are classics, 1 is almost a lcassic, 4 are ok, the rest are good songs. I'd have liked to shear a few K-Ci & JoJo songs on here but I guess they only did Jodeci songs that all 4 members were a part of. Production is nice as well, DeVante Swing did 13 songs and Dalvun DeGrate did 3.

3 out of 5 stars IT'S OK...........2006-06-14

I ALREADY OWN "FOREVER MY LADY" ALSO & THIS COMPILATION COULD HAVE BEEN BETTER. THERE ARE KEY REMIXES MISSING! "COME & TALK TO ME" (REMIX), "I'M STILL WAITING" (SWING MOB REMIX) & "FEENIN'" (ERICK SERMON REMIX). THE REMIXES WERE THE BEST SOUNDING TRACKS OF JODECI'S TENURE ON THE CHARTS! AND THEY ARE NOT HERE! WHAT A SHAME....BUT IT'S A NICE COMPILATION FOR THE AVERAGE LISTENER....

5 out of 5 stars Classic R&B Group's Grestest .......2006-02-14

This compilation is very good, and it has all of the hits, from their first hit in 1991, Forever My Lady, to their last hit before they broke up, Love U 4 Life. This compilation is very good, as Jodeci set their standard of the meaning of a good R&B group. (Boyz II Men did not set a standard, their style was used before by New Edition)To this Day, Jodeci has influenced acts like 112, H-Town, Jagged Edge, and most importantly Dru Hill.

One problem with this compilation is that they really should've added on a 2nd disc, to include K-ci and Jojo's hits as a duo, instead of releasing their own greatest hits, which was really a waste of time.

5 out of 5 stars Memories.............2005-11-29

WOW! What a great CD! It is so hard to review a greatest hits CD at the title says it all: GREATEST HITS!!! They had some of the biggest hip/hop & R&B hits of the 90's and they are just as great when I crank them up today. Each song has a memory or a story tagged to them taking me back to that moment in time. It's all here....not missing a beat. Some of the remixes we could have lived without but that still does not take away from all the great hits that are on here. They have all their great slow jams from "Come And Talk To Me", "Forever My Lady" to "Freek N You" & "What About Us".

This is a must have for those of you who jammed out to these songs when the originally came out or for those of you who just appreciate good ol' R&B. Truly a gem!

5 out of 5 stars STAAAAY, FOR A LITTLE WHILE!!!.......2005-11-29

I am "Feenin" for the days when a guy group could sing!!! These bad boys were "IT" back in tha day!! Every song reminds you of brothers seriously singing to their girl. All the classic Jodeci songs: "Stay", "Come and Talk to Me", "Feenin" "Lately" are all on here. The only one missing is "Ride & Slide" from the "Diary of a Mad Band" album, but hey, I have that album so I'm ok with it missing from this complitation.

Here's to Jodeci! Come back fellas!

4 out of 5 stars Loved the movie and the music.......2007-06-27

This soundtrack includes great songs, such as Power of Love and a terrific remake of Earth Angel. I definately recommend it.

5 out of 5 stars "Time Bomb Town" worth the money!!.......2007-05-10

My older brother had this tape back when it came out. We really loved all the movies as well as the songs in them. I have heard the Huey Lewis songs and the theme songs a million times, but I forgot all about the "buried treasure". I remember hearing "time bomb town" very briefly in the scene where marty's alarm goes off. I always thought it sounded like a weird song and never payed attention to it. Fast forward to 2007. I came across this soundtrack and "Time Bomb Town" blew me away. You may know Lindsey Buckingham as the guy in Fleetwood Mac, but he has some great solo stuff including "Holiday Road" from "National Lampoon's Vacation" Soundtrack from 1980 (another classic!) Anyway, I have been listning to "Time Bomb Town" non-stop for the last week, it is my favorite song at the moment and one of his best(including Fleetwood-Mac). It sounds very fresh, for being over 20 years old, and in my opinion is the best song on this soundtrack. CHECK IT OUT!

3 out of 5 stars Good but a little dissapointing.......2007-03-28

As a hugh fan of the "Back to the future" movies, I was very excited to receive this soundtrack. Unfortunatly, this soundtrack suffer from a lack of very important songs, that are very much remembered and loved.
Songs like "Mr. Sandman", that symbols the enter of Marty Mcfly to the 50's. I love this song and he is one of the reasons I bought this CD.
Also, other versions of the main theme of the movie, that appears on the movie, are missing from CD. this is most unfortunate...

3 out of 5 stars Where is the famous guitar solo?.......2007-03-08

I was mainly buying this CD because of Marty's famous guitar solo in the song Johnny B. Goode. Unfortunately, there is shorter version of that song on the CD not with the guitar solo. Other songs are OK.

5 out of 5 stars Good Time Oldies.......2006-02-24

Excellent product with classic hits from the movie that you love to sing and dance too. Product was sent in good time and i love it.

4 out of 5 stars Guru - Jazzmatazz, Vol. 4: The Hip Hop Jazz Messenger: Back to the Future.......2007-06-20

Guru (A.K.A. Gifted Unlimited Rhymes Universal, Keith Edward Elam) returns with "Jazzmatazz, Vol. 4: The Hip Hop Jazz Messenger: Back to the Future" (2007) a sixteen track release which features guest appearances from Slum Village, Common, Bob James, Damian Marley, Kem, Vivian Green, Raheem DeVaughn, Bobby Valentino, Ronnie Laws, Dionne Farris, Omar, Shelly Harland, Brownman, Blackalicious, Caron Wheeler & David Sanborn. As one half of the groundbreaking group Gangstarr, Guru released many memorable albums, he has also succeeded in delivering memorable solo releases in the Jazzmatazz series. At fourty year's old, Guru is one of the Rap game's veteran's who continues to deliver relevant music, that old and new fans alike can enjoy. This release opens up with "Cuz I'm Jazzy" which has Guru teaming up with T3 & Elzhi of Slum Village. Next up is a highlight track in the single "State of Clarity" - Guru, Common and Bob James (Jazz Keyboards) deliver a substantial track about being true to ones self and avoiding the trife life. Guru tag teams "Stand Up (Some Things'll Never Change) with Damian Marley who provides the chorus. Guru rhymes about change and creating a better future on "Look To The Sun". Guru shines on the introspective "Connection" feat. Kem- delivering more substantial lyrics like "Its so real when it comes from the heart, from deep down inside". Guru flipts the script some and slows things down with "Fine and Free" which features some soulful vocals from Vivian Green, rhyming with confidence - Guru show's his love for Hip Hop and the ladies while repping himself and giving his opinion on sell out MC's. Up and coming soul singer Raheem DeVaughn makes an appearance on "Wait On Me", while Bobby Valentino & Guru travel worldwide on "International". Guru kicks some on point rhymes backed by the sounds of Jazz, Funk & Blues musician Ronnie Laws on "This Is Art". Guru rhymes about a woman whos after him on "Fly Magnetic" backed by some vocals from Dionne Farris, then colloborates with British Singer Omar on "The Jazz Style". Guru takes a trip looking for a special lady on "Follow The Signs" backed by smooth vocals from Shelly Harland. My favourite track at the moment is the deep "The Universal Struggle" feat. Brownman, Guru delivers some excellent lyrics on this conscious track about how people worldwide face the same struggles, talking about showing resilience in the face of danger and overcoming. Guru then collabs with Rap duo Blackalicious on "Infinite" - letting it be known he won't be leaving the game anytime soon and that the music he delivers goes beyond simple rhymes to deep thoughts. Guru provides another international collaboration this time with female British Singer Caron Wheeler (hook) on "Kissed The World" a track about George Bush and the War. Guru closes off the album with "Living Legend" backed by the sounds of Saxophonist David Sanborn. It's refreshing to listen to a grounded MC who has a significant social conscious, and drops positive on point rhymes. "Jazzmatazz, Vol. 4: The Hip Hop Jazz Messenger: Back to the Future" is a strong release worth checking out.

I wasn't expecting to have 4 discs for this price, and the music is a quality selection of film music, giving a good scope of the genre, and a very listenable transfer.

For the price, this CD is a great bargain. The musical selections, as you might expect, are mixed in quality ranging from extraordinary to so so, the balance being worthwhile and interesting. Sonically the CD is excellent.

5 out of 5 stars Great Sampling Collection.......2007-07-29

Over the past thirty years, my father and I have been collecting film music on various formats--vinyl, tape, reel-to-reel, CD, recording it from the movie, even. This collection is a great starter for someone who wants to start owning movie music. Lots of big hitters, including Hermann, Barry, Conti, Mancini, and Goldsmith as well as some contemporary scores that are great, too. This is the type of collection I would make for a friend who asks "what scores should I start with?"

4 out of 5 stars Six Decades of Film Music.......2007-05-13

This is film music for the classical music lover. The City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra presents excellent arrangements of a number of classic film themes (although several pieces of the 56 film classics selected for this 4 CD set are not orchestral arrangements, but rather specialty arrangements). Besides great film composers such as John Williams, Elmer Bernstein, Ennio Morricone, and James Horner, classical composers such as Richard Strauss and Pietro Mascagni make an appearance. On several of the numbers the Crouch End Festival Chorus adds the human voice to the power of the full symphonic orchestra to create true movie magic. If you like the sound of a full symphony orchestra playing some of the most recognized themes ever written, you'll love these CDs.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent collection with fine performances.......2007-03-28

Silva Screen Records, based in England, has been issuing some fine collections of film scores, more in one box than we have the right to expect. This four-CD box contains scores by many of the best writers, including Max Steiner, Bernard Herrmann, Dimitri Tomkin, Kenneth J. Alford (The Bridge on the River Kwai), Elmer Bernstein, Maurice Jarre, Ennio Marricone, John Barry, Nino Rota, John Williams, James Horner, and more. We can all think of additional film scores we wished were included, but then there's no way this collection could be all-inclusive. The City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra, supplemented by Crouch End Festival Chorus on some numbers, does a very competent job...The liner notes give the basic information without any commentary, and as far as I can see, contain only one error. Am I wrong or are tracks 9 and 10 on the fourth CD mislabeled? Track 9, which runs 7:33, seems to have the excitement of "Pirates of the Caribbean" (which I did not see) and track 10, which runs 4:22, the more sedate "The Girl with the Pearl Earring (which I also did not see). Listings seem to have them reversed.

5 out of 5 stars "essential film scores from 1939 to 2004 ~ Incredible Music".......2005-05-16

When I think of the "Golden Age" of Hollywood, many composers come to mind...you gave the usher your ticket in the theater and sat down, knowingly you were going to get your moneys worth...when the curtain opened and you heard those first few notes...you sat back, watched and listened as the film score and orchestra worked their magic...now we have the ultimate from Silva Screen Classics "The Incredible Film Music Box", featuring a four disc set of the essential film scores of the past 60 years...covering several decades from 1939 through and up to the present 2004

There are compilations and then there are "Compilations" beginning with a classic that even the youngsters today recognize "GONE WITH THE WIND" (1939) (Max Steiner), sweeping score that captures the tragic history of the South during the Civil War, one great cue after another, it doesn't get any better than this, nominated by the Academy for Best Original Score...and closing on Disc 4 with "THE INCREDIBLES" (2004) (Michael Giacchino), the big hit in computer animation from Walt Disney & Pixar that once again pit Super-Heroes against the forces of evil...our family of five Supers prove crime doesn't pay, but box-office receipts do...gotta love it!

Silva Screen Classics as usual, has put quality into this 4-CD-Set featuring The City Of Prague Philarmonic Orchestra and the Crouch End Festival Chorus conducted by Kenneth Alwyn, Bill Ashton, Paul Bateman, James Fitzpatrick, Mario Klemens, Derek Wadsworth, and Nic Raine. Recorded in "Dolby Surround" with the new technology of "HDCD", this is a "film-score-buffs" dream, one to treasure now and years to come.

Some selections are missing, but when you think of what Silva has included, it is impossible to please everyone...was happy to see "TOUCH OF EVIL" (1958) from composer Henry Mancini, as I feel this composer deserves all the recognition that has been overlooked recently in the music world...This collection is aimed directly at the "Serious Film Score" music fans and collectors...Silva is as always, perfect in every way...just the way we like 'em!

      5 out of 5 stars The penultimate collection ..........2006-12-07

      Generally I agree with Strategos in his ecstatic Spotlight Review above. It is a joy to here some of the most memorable themes and cues from some of the most memorable science fiction and fantasy movies (re)recorded in great sound and in lavish (re)orchestrations, played by renowned classical orchestras, namely the City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra, the Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra and the Philharmonia Orchestra, no less.

      I have always had a weak spot for (good, or maybe even intelligent) science fiction/fantasy and film music, especially its way of evoking mystery, grandure and wide open spaces. Call it a weakness if you want. But it was maybe really kick started off, for as far as I can remember, with Star Trek. But especially Star Trek II, III and IV - essentially a trilogy - because of their very romantic but very warm, human core, set on the broadest canvasses of unlimited and mysterious outer space. But then there was the music for adding that essential extra dimension of emotion and atmosphere. I am happy that much of the music on this album is from the Star Trek series and films, often equaling or sometimes even outclassing the original recordings.

      This kind of music (for the movies) should be seen as an art on its own rights with its own merits and qualities. As such, the musical sequences on these CD's are a beautifully played cross section of some of the most evoking orchestral music for science fiction/fantasy film ever created. And I very much like the nicely blended, wide and deep orchestral soundpicture with enough reverberation to evoke a sense of wide open spaces.
      I am quite thrilled by tracks like the evocative music from Dune, truly transporting one to the vastly sands of Arrakis (the music is wonderful, but to my great regret I think the movie itself is a flawed masterpiece at best, alas.). And then there is the very different, goofy music for Ghostbusters (memories of childhood), the spoofy but electrifying music from Mars Attacks (lovingly parodist music, this, with not a little touch of irony) and the happily adventurous, forward driving Theme from Galaxy Quest ('Never give up, never surrender!'), now also used for the internet-based fan-series Star Trek: The Hidden Frontier. On the other side of the spectrum we have the atmospheric music for Enemy Mine (an underestimated 'little' movie), the Theme from The Right Stuff (actually science FACT, not fiction, this film, just like Apollo 13, of course), the eerily attractive music for Species, the original End Title for Alien (not used in the theatrical version of the movie, where it was replaced by music from howard Hanson's Second Symphony), the exquisitely exotic music for Stargate, the sweet and warmly sympathetic, beautifully re-orchestrated, theme for Starman, the title cue for Star Trek: TOS (much more melodiously played than the original! If only a series nowadays could continue to be as thought provoking and as original as Star Trek was during its launch, fourty years ago ...) and a truly overpowering End Titles Suite from Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country. I especially like the thrillingly grandiloquent rendition here of the music for Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. And how nice it is to hear the (thematic) similarities between James Horner's music for The Wrath of Khan, his great break-through as a film music composer, and his (two years) earlier music for Battle Beyond the Stars (which did indeed help him earn the job for writing the music for Star Trek II) ...

      But on the 'down side', if one is looking for - for example - the gorgeously expansively played End Titles from Cocoon, it is not included here: one has to acquire the album that 'kicked it all off', so to say, namely 'Space and Beyond', also on Silva Screen. I was very pleased also with the inclusion on that album of some of the music from the series Star Trek: The Next Generation, namely where one of the characters, Tasha Yar, in one of the episodes (Skin of Evil) is saying goodbye to her crewmmates: sweetly sentimental and simple music which I have always wanted to own on CD. I guess that a few cues from the other two sequals ('Alien Invasion: Space and Beyond II' and 'Space3: Beyond the Final Frontier') didn't make it onto this 4 CD collection-album as well, but I guess that it would be the 'better part of the bargain' to opt to buy this 'The Science Fiction Album' instead of buying all three albums separately. Well, of course it is for yourself to ultimately decide what you really want ;-)

      If I were to nitpick (which is not easy with such a marvellous project as this one), then I would say that while all music is performed with magnificent grandure and with style, some of it is not performed as crisply and as technically 'on the spot' as some of the original recordings: ensemble is a little slack and the playing somewhat stilted sometimes, losing some of the edge and the originality of the writing. ET and Star Wars spring to mind, but then the soundtracks for Star Wars are traditionally recorded with the magnificent London Symphony Orchestra, conducted by maestro John Williams himself, and these superior recordings (especially the ones for Episode I, II and III) can't really be bettered, IMHO. Likewise for the music from Star Trek: The Motion Picture, I believe that in the end one really has to resort to the ultimate reference, namely the original recording (which is true in many other instances of 'original recordings'), and then the 20th anniversay colector's edition of this soundtrack on Columbia/Legacy (truly unmissable, this veritable classic of sci-fi/film music soundtracks!).

      But all in all this 4CD-collection amounts to probably being the penultimate high quality sci-fi music album collection (I certainly know of no other project that comes as close quality as well as quantity wise), with some of the most memorable musical moments from classic to modern sci-fi/fantasy film captured in lavish orchestrations.
      Collection-wise: five *stars*. Playing: generally four *stars*, sometimes more. The recording quality: five *stars*. The music (qualified on its own merits as film music) and its (re)orchestrations: generally five *stars*. In the end this is all highly recommended, and certainly not to be missed by science fiction and fantasy film music fans. Klaatu barada nikto.

      You wonderful four disk collection of SF music. It startsa up the the grand master of SF music, 2001: A space Odyssey all the way to Superman. This is all American SF music and several themes I would have liked to have included are not there. All in all though, a collection you will enjoy.

      5 out of 5 stars The Ulllllltimate Sci-Fi Music Collection.......2005-10-23

      If one person gives great gifts, it's the illustrious Codemaster Talon. I've received a fair number of gifts in my lifetime, but so far, my older sister's take the cake. Take this one for instance. I'm real big on orchestral music, to the point where I listen to them more than any other kind of music. I've got orchestral versions of video game themes, orchestral soundtracks to truck-loads of anime shows (Big O, Escaflowne, and Giant Robo are incredible), and could probably spend the rest of my life just trying to study the nuances of all the classical music I've got. Being such a huge fan of orchestral music, I also have come to believe that orchestra music produced for movies and television is the new classical music (or as someone once said, Mozart would be making music for movies if he were alive today). Being a huge sci-fi fan, that kind of music has always been particularly near and dear to my heart. But were I to buy each and every soundtrack for every sci-fi I liked it would cost quite a bundle, and would include a lot of sub-par music along with the grandiose and fantastic main and memorable themes. That's where this beauty comes in.

      The moment I ripped off the shrink-wrap and popped it into my cd player was a moment of great trepidation. Believe me when I tell that I've seen my fair share of sub-par orchestral recording in my lifetime. Very often they are in those big super-packs of music, and suffer from poor direction, improper mastering, and sometime even pathetic orchestration (or worse yet have something sounding like a cheap synthesizer and a kazoo in place of a full orchestra). I needn't have worried though. This sucker is fantastic.

      Many people who are not audiophiles will probably miss the point of this cd collection. It is not the original versions of the pieces. It is re-orchestrations, mostly by the phenomenal Prague Symphony Orchestra. Many of these themes didn't sound all that hot in there original versions because they were low budget films or were not recorded in high-fidelity. Here they are given the full treatment, mastered with the most loving care imaginable. Often the version found in these cds is SUPERIOR to the original.

      Remember the theme from 2001: A Space Odyssey? Of course you do. But how many times have you heard a cheap imitation of the original version from the movie, starting too low in volume and ending too high (and missing the essential pipe-organ that gives it that extra oomph)? Well, this first track in the entire collection is not only everything it should be instrumental and timing-wise, but it also has been oh-so-carefully adjusted during the mastering process so that at no time is the music either too low or too high in volume (surely a benchmark for every other recording ever to be made of the piece).

      Or what about the theme from the (at-the-time) uber-creepy The Black Hole? The orchestration of this piece of music goes from tiumphant to terrifying and back again, with a splendor and cleanness that I CERTAINLY don't remember being in the original recording.

      Then there's the new version of the theme from Independence Day, complete with a violin solo, a far more electrifying ending climax, and a chorus so thunderous that you feel like applauding at the end. Simply indescribable. Kind of like the MIND-BLOWING rendition of the theme from The Last Star Fighter. This has been one of my favorite themes for a long time now, but I've never heard it played like this. I think the original version of the theme is something like 1 minute long, but this new version doesn't just fade out (HAHAHAHA!!!!) THIS version is THREE minutes long, goes through the main theme THREE times, with the final strains being so triumphant and joyous I could not help but feel an electrifying charge the first dozen or so times (come to think of it, I still feel that way). This is superior to the original in EVERY way. AWESOME.

      And let's not forget the incredible new rendition of Stargate with it's heavy use of clarinets (for Egyptian effect!) and a triumphant new ending (completely lacking the chanting from the original version. This version is so different that for the first minute it is very hard to tell that it is in fact Stargate. But then the main theme kicks in, and then you get this incredible flute solo for my favorite part of theme (the whole thing is played slower, but arguably more powerfully than the original). My goodness. At first I found the thing so different I didn't like it. But then I listened to it again. And again. And again.

      I could go on and on, talking about the fantastic new rendition of Moon Raker, the ear-popping Battlestar Galactica, the classic Star Trek (First Contact has a minute or two of the theme from Star Trek:The Motion Picture before going into the main theme), or the sweet renditions of music from the Star Wars movies (or the music from E.T.).

      I have to mention though that this collection was not picked based merely on what people want, or on what is popular. No, the people who made it obviously thought a GOOD music collection was better than a popular one. That's why you get a heartbreakingly beautiful theme from A.I. instead of the main theme. It's why you get music from movies that you probably never gave a second thought to the music (because the movie was lousy). It's why you get Armageddon, Judge Dredd, and Robocop (who would have guessed their music was so COOL when there was all that crazy action and bad-acting going on on-screen).

      I said it before and I'll say it again. This cd-set was mastered with tender-loving-care, and it shows BIG-TIME. High-fidelity the likes of which I have not seen since the days when cds were brand-new in the world. Dolby Surround. Perfectly balanced. BEAUTIUFL orchestrations. About the only thing that makes me scratch my head is the weird sound-effect tracks (Oooookay.....). Other than that, it's PERFECT. Obviously they could not include every sci-fi theme ever (no one can), but this collection is REALLY GOOD. A lot of great themes that got away (forgotten gems :), new versions of old favorites, and under-appreciated classics aplenty, but ALWAYS the full and complete versions with nothing cut-out (the theme from Dune is quite extended).

      If you love movie music (and sci-fi movie music in particular) you MUST buy this awesome collection). It is not the original recordings. Almost always the new ones are better (if they aren't better they're just equal). This is what you have been waiting for. I for one am going to be buying quite a few cds from this company in the future. Give your ears the treat they deserve. Buy it NOW.

      5 out of 5 stars SciFi Album gift.......2005-07-20

      I bought the Science Fiction Album as a gift for my son who is twenty-one years old. He is a musician, and also a huge fan of many SciFi shows and movies. I thought this would be the perfect thing for him and I was right. He loves it!

      3 out of 5 stars Away From to be a Collectible Peace.......2004-12-16

      If you like Sci-Fi movies and want a compilation of their important scores, this is the CD-set to buy. But let me warn you about that very few songs in the cds are from the original soundtracks. Most of them is re-recorded by The City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra. But the sound quality of cds are very good, because they have HDCD and Dolby Surround labels. This set is away from to be a collectible peace, but it is a good general compilation of favorite Sci-Fi movie scores.

      3 out of 5 stars Another good Silvistri work but not as great as the previous.......2003-03-06

      The final soundtrack for the Back to the Future Trilogy doesn't disapoint and at the same time it lacks the familiarity we have come to love with the Back to the Future music.

      The third sequal takes on a whole old west flavor as our heroes wind up in 1885 and take on the founding of the town of Hill valley as well as other old west situations like gun fights, horses and huge trains. The soundtrack and score that Alan puts together is pretty good overall and the quality we have come to expect. It does seem very out of place though when compared to the two previous soundtracks of the movie series.

      Something to note of this sound track, unlike the other two, the songs are in a weird random order. They aren't in the order that the songs show up in the movie. The last part of the train shows up before the other two for example. Why they did this I don't know but it can make things confusing when you are listening and trying to place where it was in the movie . I would definitely say get this but just to complete the set and for a differnet flavor of what Alan Silvistri can accomplish. Its not great like the other two are , but it is pretty good still.

      The familiar Back to the Future theme is missing and only shows up at undertones in the score if at all. The music also takes on a totaly new sound to it , an old west type of feel with a lot of horns and classic sounds to it. Again not the best of approaches as the previous Back to the Future films never altered the music to fit the time period and there was really no need to do that here as well. A good mixture of old with new would have worked nicely, but with that all said the soundtrack is still enjoyable and I would recomend this as well as the other two movie soundtracks as they are a real thril to listen to everytime , even if the music will seem unfamiliar compared to the other two albums.

      Some songs to take note of are the Train scores. All done well and will sorta remind you of the long climax at the end of the first movie that both had similar situations going on (Having to get back to the future by some means of luck and good planning) . Other songs like Indians and We are Out of Gas are intersting western sounding scores that are short but do have a Back to the Future feel to them and work nicely. Some songs are just not as powerful as his previous ones were and compared to the other 2 albums can even seem out of place.

      Bottom line is: Its good for originality but not for continuity for the trilogy but still a good album on its own right. Just not a great one like the other two were.

      3 out of 5 stars Best of all 3 scores........2001-11-21

      The Western themes really pick up the pace in this 3rd BTTF movie and are truly rousing. The main Back To The Future is abundant thru-out and is well used to evoke different moods and feelings.

      ZZ-Top does a real cool track called "Double Back" and it sure is rootin' tootin'. Other tracks echo the style of Ennio Morricone's scores to older westerns and it's a nice touch. I would appreciate more themes as there are only 2 new ones in this film, which are Doc's love theme and the main Western cue.

      The tracks are out of order and it would have been more intelligent to place them in the same sequence as they appeared in the film. The "Train" is spilt into 3 tracks and at 3 totally different places of the CD. They are the best tracks, especially the ending of "Point of No Return", which gets the pulse going big time, but not for long enough.

      It's all worthwhile, but for a series of 3 films there are not many themes to go round other than the main Back To The Future theme and a couple of other minor ones. Most tracks are empty and lifeless but the rest make the CD a worthy purchase.

      5 out of 5 stars Great CD.......2001-05-27

      Great CD! Let's start at the very beginning, a very good place to start. (Ha ha ha!)

      TRACK 1: Good song; Good rhythm; Sums up the whole CD; Beginning used at the very first scenes of Back to the Future 3 (the scene where 1955 Doc sees 1985 Marty and faints). TRACK 2: Good song; Second part of the song used during the train scenes. TRACK 3: Good song; Slow at times; Song used when Marty first views Hill Valley in 1885 (now like the wild west). TRACK 4: Good, quick song; Used during the hanging scene; I picture Marty getting dragged on and on by Biff and the other bad guys. TRACK 5: Ok song; Extremely slow; Not adventurous and thrilling like the rest; It still paints pictures of Doc in love with Clara in my mind. TRACK 6: Great, short, song with an excellent rhythm and beat; Song used when Marty is escaping from the Indians. TRACK 7: Ok song; A little slow and boring; Song used when Doc fails while desperately trying to explain to Clara that he is leaving her; TRACK 8: Great song; Used when Doc comes back in the train with Clara, Jules, and Verne; I picture the train blasting away; I see poor Marty saying goodbye. TRACK 9: Good song; Third and last part of the song used during the train scenes; Gets a little boring over time; Still good. TRACK 10: Ok song; Used when Marty and Doc find the gravestone with Doc's death outside the Mine Shaft. TRACK 11: Strange song; Percussion and drums; All I can do is imagine Marty with Buford "Mad Dog" Tannen in the showdown; Marty-"I thought we could talk." Buford-"Thought wrong, kid!" (Then he shoots Marty.) TRACK 12: Very short; Song used when Doc rescues Clara from the Ravine. TRACK 13: Ok song; Not great; Slow and boring; Scene with Doc and Clara looking up at the sky. TRACK 14: Great song; Song used when the DeLorean is out of gas, so Doc and Marty pull it by horses; Great picture in my mind. TRACK 15: Ok song; Song used when the bartender is making the wake-up juice. TRACK 16: Good song; First part of the song used in the train scenes. TRACK 17: EXCELLENT SONG; Doubleback is the best song on this CD; ZZ Top plays it; Song used at the Hill Valley Festival where the clock starts ticking for the first time; Great song with excellent pictures painted in my mind. TRACK 18: Great song; Sums up the whole CD in a different way; Great song to end a great soundtrack of a great movie.

      Hope you buy this CD! It's wonderful! You'll love it!
