LOOKING FOR THE MABEL'S MUSIC.......2005-01-08

THE MUSIC OF MAY SHOWS AS MUCH ATTENTION TO DETAILS OF THE HEART AS THE SHOW DOES. MY FAVORITE SCORE WAS AN INSTRUMENTAL FROM THE EPISODE WHERE PAUL AND JAMIE HAD TO LET MABEL CRY IT OUT AND 'BREAK HER HEART'. (IF YOU KNOW WHERE TO FIND IT PLEASE CONTACT ME.)THAT SONG ABOUT TORE ME TO PIECES IN THAT EPISODE. AND OF COURSE EVERYONES FAVE OF FAITH HILL'S SONG IN THE FINAL EPISODE.

IF I MAY, IF YOU ARE INTO LULLABYES AS I AM (OR JUST MELLOW SWEET MUSIC) YOU MAY WANT TO CHECK OUT THE MCCAUGHEY'S (SEPTUPLETS)CD, "SWEET DREAMS". I BOUGHT IT WHEN MY NOW SEVEN YEAR OLD WAS A BABY AND I STILL PULL IT OUT AND LISTEN TO IT. NONE OF THE SONGS SOUND ALIKE AT ALL AND I LOVE THEM EVERYONE. ESPECIALLY "OH WHAT DREAMS" BY CHRIS RICE. I AM NOT SURE IF I AM ALLOWED TO PROMOTE ANOTHER CD AS WELL. FEEL FREE TO DELETE THIS PORTION OF THE REVIEW.

A Must Have for Fans.......2004-04-13

I got this CD 2 days after I got a new car and was more excited about this CD. However, my version does not have "The Way You Look Tonight" by Madeleine Peyroux. It does have the best song, "Love and Forgiveness" by Julia Fordham. That song sums up the whole show. If anyone knows where I can get a copy of the song "Waiting for You" that was sung in the episode "The Newspaper Stand" I would really apprciate it. I also would like the song from the finale. Overall a great CD! Contact me at EPrestw927@sbcglobal.net if you have this info.

Flawed Track Inclusion.......2007-07-29

I have to admit right off the bat that I don't own this album, although I've been trying to scrape up all the original soundtracks for the movies and some of the TV series. But looking through the track listing, it seems muddled with too many sound effects and tracks that could've been replaced with better ones. I wish Paramount and the recording industries would release a 2-CD set of tracks that includes only the main title sequences of each Star Trek TV series and standout tracks from the 10 feature films, since most of these soundtracks have gone out of print and are hard to find. Most of these compilations of different film tracks never include the main title sequences of the films, which are often the standout orchestral tracks of each movie. I hope they release an album like this, filled with only the best Trek music that is hard to find.

Quite good, but not a stellar "Trek".......2007-05-18

Silva Screen Records has made a name for itself releasing reproductions of modern orchestral soundtracks, with most of its products centering around a particular genre or composer. Star Trek has a history of quality music, so its no suprise Silva has taken a crack at music in the final frontier. This is a fine release, with some strong points and some weak ones as well.

IN GENERAL: For the purist looking for a "best of" compilation taken from the original soundtracks take note: this isn't that product. Rather, these are reproductions by Nic Raine conducting the City of Prague Philharmonic. That said, this is a quality group, and the general sound is professional and comes off quite well (for the most part..I'll mention a few exceptions). It is superior to the other releases I have heard from the Cincinnati Pops Orchestra.

SELECTION: The biggest advantage here is variety of sources. The Trek feature films are all represented here, as well as the various series (except for the last one, "Enterprise"). The thouroughness seems to match or excel the oher Star Trek Compilation CDs that have been released. There are a few other offbeat additions..notably a four minute suite from the videogame Star Fleet Academy. Personally, I found this bland track to be four minutes of wasted disk space. The original series has many memorable moments (listen to the Amok Time/The Doomsday Machine soundtrack) which would be be more exciting and also a better fit on this album.

Jerry Goldsmith's standard Star Trek March is heard far too often on these 2 CDs. The march itself is terrific, but it has been used so much it has become the franchise's major theme and the album's producers rely on it by representing many movies by their "End Titles". Unfortunately, Goldsmith's end titles consistently use a three-section approach: two sections of the "standard" Star Trek March sandwich a middle section of music that is unique for that particular film. This is OK if you are listening to a single movie's soundtrack, but for a compilation album, the fourth or fifth time you hear the march, it is too much. It would have been a better idea to cut a few "End Title" performances in favor of other selections from the films' soundtracks.

PERFORMANCE QUALITY: For the most part it is very good and captures the spirit of the original soundtracks. Selections from Horner's scores for the second and third films stand out as particularly well done. The last movie, "Nemesis" also has a terrifically arranged suite, and most of the movie soundtrack reproductions are very good quality. The only exception is from "Klingon Attack" in which the awesome bass of the "blaster-beam" from the original cannot be matched by the comparatively hollow synthesized atempt here.

PERSONAL GRIPE: the inclusion of sound effects. Every so often a special effect like "Warp Drive" or "Dogfight in Space" pops up between tracks. This by itself would be extremely cheesy. Add to this that these are not the actual sound effects from the TV shows or movies and the cheesiness levels reach a level I think only a Wisconsin resident could appreciate. Sci Fi music (and Star Trek in particular) seems to inspire some labels to add special effects inclusions like this. Who knows why.

Love The Soundtrack.......2007-04-03

I bought this soundtrack and I love it.A great edition to the star trek fans.

Best ST recording in the Alpha Quadrant.......2007-01-10

Great collection of Star Trek series and Movie themes; only a Klingon
Opera is missing.

I must disagree.......2005-07-17

I own all the original recordings, and I still enjoy this re-recording. It is good. It is better than the Cincinatti Pops "Symphonic Star Trek", it is better than the Richard Hayman "Star Trek" compilation from 89, its better than the Sci Fi compilation on the Edel label from 93 and for the most part is better than Varese's Ultimate Star Trek from 1998.

This collection has music you will not find anywhere else. The Tasha's Farewell track is beautiful and the only other place its avialable is the Edel "Best of Science Fiction" compilation from 1993, and while that was recorded by the same orchestra, it was with a different conductor, and comparing the two, you can tell that Nic Raine was more successful with Prague than William Motzing was. That said Edel release is also more than $30 here on amazon. Also this release is in HDCD Dolby which is a plus. There's also two cues from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine; one of them is on The Best of Star Trek: 30th Anniversary Special, the other is not on any other album. In addition, there is music from Ron Jones "Starfleet Academy" video game which is pretty cool to listen to, and not availble anywhere else that I know of. Finally, Jerry Goldsmith's main theme can get boring after a while, I mean, its repetitive that it is in all the end credit suites, it would have been nice for Insurrection to have maybe an action cue instead of the end credits suite...And Nic Raine, did just that, only for Star Trek: Nemesis. Instead of the tradition end credit suite, Mr. Raine arranged a professional suite with the main Nemesis theme, some action cues, as well as the Goldsmith Star Trek march, and it is a wonderful 8 minutes. If you already have the 3 space and beyond albums, the Star Trek Nemesis track as well as Birds of Prey Decloaking from Star Trek III are the only new tracks on this CD.

This is a must-buy for fans of star trek in general, and hardcore star trek fans should buy this album for the aforementioned cues that aren't available anywhere else.

"The Mountain" is truly the "peak" of this work!.......2007-06-28

When I saw Star Trek 5 upon it's initial release in '89,
I saw three different stories attempting to be force-sealed into one:

Sybok's spiritual as well as physical search for God and Sha-Ka-Ree.
Spock's discovery of his long-lost half-brother, Sybock.
Kirk's attitudes towards death, and towards spiritual-healing "tricks".
["Faith-Healers" have never impressed me to begin with.
Give Kirk an "ATTA-BOY!" on that one!]!

[Somebody, in response to Kirk's cry of
"I don't WANT my pain taken away - I NEED my pain!
once made this interesting comment:

"No 'New-Age Easy Answers for Kirk, thank you!'"
I liked that. I'm no fan of New Age thinking myself.]

The new Enterprise-A being full of malfunctions, I felt, detracted from the story, for, in the end, the ship rose to the occasion, and carried crew and guests into danger and back as well as her predecessor had always done.

Roddenberry is said to have deeply felt this film was very apochryphal, and should not be regarded as official Star Trek "canon".

Having said all that, I was deeply moved by Goldsmith's fine compostion
"The Mountain". This piece of music, for me, stands very well
all alone in it's own right, in additon to being a part of this soundtrack.

When I and my wife have vacationed in Oregon, I played this music on our car stereo during one of our drives around Mount Hood, our favourite mountain in all the world. For me, especially, "The Mountain" has become my personal love song to the Pacific Northwest that we love so much.

"The Mountain" raises images and notions of new possiblities, as another reviewer of this CD noted, and it also captures, for me, the great majesty and great splendor that is the American Pacific Northwest.

I was very honored to see this great part of our country finally represented - albeit briefly - in a Star Trek production.

"The Mountain" is a piece of music that could - and should - have been used again in other Star Trek productions which followed ST5.

Goldsmith also brings new fresh excitement to the action sequences and his updated version of the Star Trek - The Motion Picture theme.
Here, the theme is more of an uplifting march.

While "The Mountain" is, for me personally, the highest point of this CD,
the entire collection here rises well above the film itself, and is the movie's saving grace.

By this CD - and go climb a mountain!

The More I Listen ..........2007-03-11

to Jerry Goldsmith's orchestral score for STAR TREK V: THE FINAL FRONTIER, the more I've grown to appreciate this marvelous thematic score which had the great misfortune to be attached to one of the weakest of the Original Series films (right behind ST: TMP).

Yet, this score stands out for a couple of my favorite cues. First, there's the beautiful and awe-inspiring "The Mountain" which opens the film. With its richly orchestrated strings and mellow brass notes, this song never fails to give me goosebumps every time I hear it. The effect is further enhanced if you're listening to it when you're driving through a hilly countryside or walking through a forest.

My second favorite cue is "A Busy Man". This cue also hits just the right notes of delight and awe as you listen, and it's interesting to note that this theme is echoed in Goldsmith's score for STAR TREK: NEMESIS. I was also pleasantly surprised and delighted to hear the theme for the Klingons (which I first heard in ST:TMP) reprised once more in the closing credits theme.

Once again, Jerry Goldsmith managed to raise the quality of a somewhat lackluster film (William Shatner's questionable "directing" talent notwithstanding) with a score that's powerful, rousing and filled with the kind of delightful and awe-inspiring music we came to expect from the Maestro.

Remarkable "Symphony".......2007-01-09

I must confess that a good soundtrack sometimes can be equated to a good symphony from the 17th or 18th century. This one truly is one of those. Everytime you listen it feels like another melody you haven't noticed during your last listen is being unveiled.

Goldsmith was truly a "composer" in the highest order. I am certain that this music will be just as well liked and enjoyed a few hundred years from now!

Take this one for a drive.......2005-08-16

While I can understand why people did not much care for the movie, I have to confess that I liked it myself -in no small part because of the musical score. It is a real pleasure to finally have a copy of this soundtrack.
I agree with many writers that the music from the scene where Sybok and his troops take the city should not have been omitted, while we could have done nicely without the version of "The moon's a window...", but I think most of us bought it for the themes from "the mountain" and "a busy man".
I do a lot of long-distance driving, and find movie soundtracks very enjoyable to listen to as the miles and the hours pass by. To get the most out of a CD like this, my advice would be to listen to it while driving through the Rockies or whatever mountain range, or rugged stretch of countryside you may be handy to.
If you find that works for you, I can also recommend John Barry's "Dances with wolves" soundtrack (excellent for driving across the prairies or during a spectacular sunset), or just about anything by James Horner.

A Great Score For The Least Watchable "Trek".......2004-07-14

Once again, Jerry Goldsmith has created a music score that goes beyond the film it was written for. I would feel bad if I said "Star Trek V-The Final Frontier" was a bad movie; in fact, I consider it one of my guilty pleasures, and one of the reasons for that is Goldsmith's music.
The album opens with 'The Mountain' -a track that starts with Alexander Courage's original fanfare, continues with Goldsmith's TMP theme, and finishes with a lovely pastoral-like motif. The action cues 'Without Help', 'Let's Get Out Of Here' and, especially, 'Open The Gates' show Goldsmith in top form.
Since the movie talks about the search for God, Goldsmith created a theme that is better represented in 'A Busy Man'. 'The Barrier' and 'An Angry God' also use it to good effect as well.
However, I'm not very pleased with 'Free Minds'; this track lacks mystery because the scene for which it was written deals with the inner pain of Spock and McCoy.
I also laugh at the song 'The Moon Is A Window To Heaven'. Even though Hiroshima's version as heard in the album is catchy, when you hear it in the movie and think of Uhura in that scene, you can't help buy laugh at it.
"Star Trek V-The Final Frontier" is a good album, and it shows how good Jerry Goldsmith is in creating music for -I hate to say this -bad movies.

Highly recommended.......2002-08-20

This pricey UK import CD filled a lot of gaps in my music collection and is an excellent overview of notable music of (mostly) recent films. It's difficult to find consistently listenable soundtrack collections like this, by that I mean free from the obligitory Whitney Houston or Celine Dion embarrassments. Usually rights issues prevent comprehensive compilations like this in the US, too. While I enjoy a lot of soundtrack music, there aren't so many complete soundtracks that I would care to own, some examples of exceptions being Ennio Morricone scores and the About a Boy Soundtrack. While certainly most of these tracks are the actual recordings used in their respective films, I noticed that "La mamma morte" from Philadelphia is not the Maria Callas version. There might be other cases like this, I'm not sure. And "Unchained Melody" from Ghost is an orchestral version, not the pop song (but I consider this a plus). This collection seems to focus on the subtle and quirky, yet melodic music of indie films, with less emphasis on the loud sweeping orchestral scores of major Hollywood hits, but of course there are a few like Gladiator and Braveheart, which are welcome here because like I've said, I probably wouldn't listen to the whole score. I love the two Thomas Newman compositions from American Beauty, and it's good to have some music from films by the Cohen Brothers here. My only complaint would have to be the order of the songs. You would think they would avoid jumping back and forth between pop songs, orchestral scores, and quiet music, but it just seems thrown together by random. I would compare this collection to the excellent "Miramax Films Greatest Hits" but the makers of that album knew to group the two pop/rock songs at the end.

A forgotten classic. .......2006-05-11

Keels 3rd studio album is another great forgotten album. This is the second Keel album i got after loving the self titled album. This album has a much more commercial sound than the first 2 Keel albums but still has some great rocking songs. This band sounds a lot like Dokken and this album was by far there most succesful peaking at #53 on the billboard charts and having 2 minor hits.

1.The Final Frontier- 10/10 A great rocker with a great intro. The riff rocks and the chorus is excellent. Ron Keel's vocals are great as always. The soft melodic bridge is great and Ron Keel's awesome scream leads into a great shredding solo. A classic!

2.Rock And Roll Animal- 10/10 Another great rocker with a good intro. The riff is great and the chorus rocks aswell. Ron Keel's vocals are strong once again. More great shredding too in the great dual guitar solo. Another classic! Jaime St. James of Black N Blue contributes backround vocals to this song too.

3.Because the Night- 10/10 A great cover song! I've never heard the original but this version is excellent! The song is lighter more melodic song than the first 2 but it's still great! Another great guitar solo, this solo is slower and more melodic and fits the song perfectly. The second solo is excellent aswell. Excellent vocal performance by Ron Keel too!

4.Here Today, Gone Tomorrow- 8/10 Another good song. This has a real commercial feel to it and isn't as strong as the first 3 songs. The chorus is strong and the solo is good but it doesn't measure up to the other songs.

5.Arm and a Leg- 9/10 A good rocker. The riff is good and the chorus is excellent. Ron Keel's vocals are great and the guitar solo shreds. A good song although not as good as the classics on the album.

6.Raised on Rock- 10/10 A great rocking song. Backround vocals by Michael Des Barres and rythym guitar by Joan Jett. A great chorus and an awesome solo.

7.Just Another Girl- 6/10 A decent poppy song similar to the Dokken song Burning Like A Flame. The chorus is pretty good but the solo is very good. I'd consider this song a filler.

8.Tears of Fire- 10/10 A great power ballad. One of the best I've ever heard. Ron Keel's vocals are excellent and the chorus is great. A beautiful song and the lyrics are great. A great harmonized guitar solo too. Mitch Perry plays rythym guitar on this song too. A classic that should have been a bigger hit than it was. This ballad reminds me of Dokken.

9.Nightfall- 10/10 A great short acoustic instrumental. This is just acoustic guitars and done in a classical style.

10.No Pain, No Gain- 10/10 A great fast rocker with an excellent riff and great vocals. The chorus is great aswell and Gregg Giuffria contributes backround vocals to this song. An excellent dual guitar solo with some great shredding. A classic!

This album was released in 1986 when hair metal dominated the charts with Ozzy Osbourne's The Ultimate Sin, Bon Jovi's Slippery When Wet and Van Halen's 5150 topping the charts. Overall a great melodic metal album similar with some high profile guest musicians. Fans of Dokken, The Scorpions Quiet Riot and 80's metal in general should own this.

Misery.......2005-01-01

This is the best album from Keel ever! It contains an awesome cover of "Because the Night" a tune penned by Bruce Springsteen, and it also features the Marc Ferrari classic "Rock n Roll Animal". This is one of two Keel albums I'd ever recommend the other being their self-titled follow-up from 1987.

There is NO other release that sounds like this production from that era in Heavy Metal History.
So I Highly Recommend this album. It's worth any amount.

Good album.......2004-06-15

THIS ALBUM IS PLAIN FUN, and with great guitar playing by Marc Ferrari and Bryan Jay. By the way, The Boss did not "cover" this song also. The Boss wrote it!

Because the night belongs to KEEL.......2004-06-05

VH1 has played this song (Because the night) a few times. If you have ever heard this song and love music it might be your new number one. It's GREAT! I like the Boss and Patti Smith who also cover this song but Keel does it best.

Lo vercheck.......2004-01-29

I love this Cd, I owned it when I was in high school, however I have lost it. I even did my ballet solo in my SR. dance recital to one the songs off of this album. I really would like to buy this CD again since I lost my first copy. However, I can not find it anywhere. If anyone knows where I can find a copy to buy, I would be forever grateful.

Cause he's got it like that..........2003-03-14

If you're not familiar with DJ Magic Mike, get to know him. He's fantastic and original. This and "Bass is the Name of the Game" are my favorite albums of his. "Bass is the Name of the Game" is his tour de force, and "Bass: The Final Frontier" is him merging his DJ skills with a nice southern funkiness.

Highlights of the album are the catchy "Girls Move Their Butts", the great R&B-ish ballad "Why Did You Leave?", and the smooth "Through the Years".

Like Tim said in his review, DJ Magic Mike is well known for being a great showcase of the funk in your trunk. For years the local stereo stores would use his discs to show off their speakers - he's good, he's funky, and he's somebody you should be listening to.

Excellent Sounding Recordings.......2001-10-16

This CD has been around for a while now but it is still truly a good compilation of Science Fiction film music given a new dimension by being recorded digitally. The BATMAN selections composed by Danny Elfman are very powerful combing rousing elements with moody enigmatic passages. Most of the other selections are short or confined to one piece. The selections from TWILIGHT ZONE: THE MOVIE, STAR TREK V: THE FINAL FRONTIER and POLTERGEIST all composed by Jerry Goldsmith are all performed with passion and demonstrate Goldsmith's great versatility. Bernard Herrmann's "Outer Space" from THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL is brief but in effect makes it all the more powerful by its great innovation and lasting impact. The WAR OF THE WORLDS "Prelude" by Leith Stevens was a great surprise.

An interesting collection of obscure s/f-fantasy themes.......2000-10-26

Maestro Kunzel has gathered together a mostly-entertaining mix of music from various s/f movies. As usual with these collections, the CD contains selections that are hard to come by (if not impossible) on a soundtrack or any other recorded source. Not all of the tracks work, however. Music from "Moonwalker" is annoying, and the theme from "War of the Worlds" is just plain weird. Not Kunzel's fault, I know, but those pieces tend to (for me) mar the overall likeability of the album. That said, there are definitely keepers: The theme from "The Black Hole," the soundtrack to which was unavailable on CD anywhere until just recently and which by itself is worth the cost; the sweet chorus of Carol Ann's Theme from "Poltergeist"; the themes from "The Day the Earth Stood Still," "The Beast Master" (I am Dar!) and "The Last Starfighter."

Unfortunately, these movie collections tend to waste too much disk space on sound effects. Often inserted as short introductions to a piece of music, most can be endured quickly and forgotten. But on this CD, a whole track's worth following "The Black Hole" is devoted to the inane cacophony of electronic gibberish, space that would have been much better served by playing, say, the Love Theme from "Superman."

Still, there are more things to like on this album than there are to dislike.

Digital Sound with a so-so collection.......2000-06-25

This is another of the Telarc label's collections put together under the conductor Erich Kunzel and performed by the Cincinnati pops orchestra. Like all Telarc discs, the sound is pure digital and hence can really pack a punch. Moreover, Kunzel often chooses some vey nice gems in his collections -- e.g. the neglected Last Starfighter piece here. However, the problem arises in the fact that many pieces of film score don't play well with a large orchestra -- they loose their focused intensity. The Batman here suffers from such a flaw and is weaker than the original score. The Pops orchestra is best with march-type themes, of which there are not enough on this album to make it outshine the original soundtracks from which it draws.

BILL BROUGHTONs BEST.......2005-10-19

The performances on this CD are very powerful. The selection of scores with the exception 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY is very representative of the genre of Science Fiction Adventure films. Bill Broughton's talents really show off on his outstanding presentation of JURASSIC PARK. It is very majestic. THE ROCKETEER and BATMAN are real showstoppers. They deliver a real punch and sound terrific. John Williams' compositions for STAR WARS, RETURN OF THE JEDI, SUPERMAN and E.T. are also well presented here. I think Broughton captured Jerry Goldsmith's ALIEN in this digital recording much better than on the original Fox LP soundtrack. Next to the MUSIC FOR MURDER Compact Disc, this is Bill Broughton's and the Orchestra of the America's best album.

Customer Reviews:

Great harmony.......2005-05-26

I was a little dissapointed, not in the music, but in the fact that Rob sings all, and almost plays all, another Hugo I would say. While it's great that one guy can have all this talent, it's also nice to believe that the music you re hearing comes from a band, all playing at once. Well, enough of the negative.

On to the positive, it's a great CD. Great catchy tunes. I heard some of these songs from a German internet radio station (Munich's hardest hits) for the first time, then had to order the CD. I am happy I did. Loving melodic rock as much as I do, and loving the chorus's the way I do, I was astonished by the LACK of chorus on the slow song (I forget the name). This song was made for chorus's. I was dissapointed in this, but it is a good song anyway. Worth the money.

Lots of energy, emotion, catchy hooks, and memorable lyrics.......2005-04-04

The Good
"High Tension Wire" is full of melodic energy and power. It has an addictive riff pattern and equally addictive lyrics. You'll be recalling the days of when arena rock dominated the airwaves. The solo at the end is a little indulgent, but awesome nevertheless. "Two Different Worlds" really displays Rob Moratti's powerful, high-registering vocal range. "Beauty and the Beast" is accented by the addition of chamber-like music over understated guitar work. The dual vocal harmonies really enhance the chorus.

"Hearts on Fire" is chock-full of heavy riffs that build to an over-the-top-chorus. The theme is cliché, but "Hollywood Drama" is quite the catchy tune. It has a nice melodic vocal flow that keeps it interesting. It's the final chorus that pushes it over the edge. "Who's Going to Love You Now" has a bluesy feel to it with its piano laced verses and rhythmic drumming. You can hear a Huey Lewis/Journey influence too.

The Bad
Nothing

The Verdict
When you were younger, your parents always said to stay away from the high tension wires, but this set is too compelling to ignore. High Tension Wire has lots of energy, emotion, catchy hooks, and memorable lyrics. It's like having all of your favorite eighties arena rock tracks on one album.
