Customer Reviews:

Two tracks I really like.......2007-07-21

The Mission Impossible theme is performed well.
The Fireball theme is actually much improved on this version. I prefer the orchestra and the vocals over the original.

Quantity Over Quality.......2007-01-15

As a musician myself, I know too well that one of the most important ingredients in ANY performance (live or recorded) is passion. The recordings here generally lack the same passion and sheer drama of the originals. Much of the instrumentation has been reduced to a cheezy, thin, plastic synthesized replica. The performances are simply a watered-down lackluster version of the classic originals. If it were not for the sheer volume of tracks compiled here, I would have rated the comp only "one star".

Mediocre.......2006-05-17

The sound quality for this collection isn't much better than the samples offered by Amazon.

One Hundred Greatest TV Themes.......2005-08-06

I have watched almost all the shows that are on these 4 cd's. Many were made before I started watching TV. Most I've seen once or twice before.

Pretty close to original recordings.......2005-07-24

Definitely not as good as the originals. You'll probably notice the slight differences since it's stuff you saw and listened to every week or everyday in reruns growing up, but it's still an amazing collection.

OK.......2005-03-17

Good CD, especially if you're a fan of Mark O'Conner. I have to admit that a couple of the tracks seem rather directionless (in a Vaughn Williams sort of way) and I tend to lose interest, but other tracks are fun, even exciting. The production is excellent throughout.

Great Music.......2004-02-27

I watched the documentary and heard Mark O'Connor play this piece in a concert and loved it immediately. The music is great to help the battles come alive but great for just listening to anyway.

GREAT SOUNDTRACK!.......2003-07-04

Fine CD full of great pieces of music from a great miniseries! Full of patriotism! I highly recommend it! Grade: A+

Finest Music Ever Heard.......2002-03-27

I heard this music on the excellent P B S Documentary: "Liberty - the American Revolution" and I knew I had to have it! It is the finest music I have heard, capturing the heart and soul of the American Revolution. The documentary "Liberty" was a masterpiece that was beautiful and moving. So too this music with its most wonderful arrangements and accompaniment. I love it! I could hardly wait to get it in the mail. It framed the documentary (which I also bought) like a great frame compliments a beautiful canvas painting. Superlatives fail me. This music must be experienced by first watching the great series on the American Revolution and then by listening to it apart. This is some of the most wonderful music I have ever heard. It reminds me of the genius of Aaron Copland who wrote the Applachian Spring and Rodeo suites.

Stirring Americana.......2001-11-10

This CD stands on its own merits as good music, not simply as music for a TV show. It evokes images of America old and new. O'Connor's violin carries us from the dance hall to the battlefield to the sorrow of lover's lost. Simple melodies twist and turn, rising up from their solid American roots. James Taylor's solemn rendition of "Johnny's Gone for a Soldier"is as true a telling of the grief of the soldier lost to war today as it was hundreds of years ago. Sit in a comfortable chair in the warm light of evening and let it surround you. To know where we have come from offers hope that the magic of freedom and liberty will not desert us in these troubled times.

The Best Don't Always Make It.......2006-11-07

The best don't necessarily make it, and being very good at what you do is not enough. That is the sad story of a great Austin, Texas rock quartet signed back in the spring of 1990 during the SXSW music festival. At a time when Stevie Ray Vaughan was breaking out big and the raw southern rock sound was coming back into vogue, bands like the Black Crowes, Drivin'n'Cryin and Johnny Law were being courted by a number of indie labels. This finally seemed to be the year that Johnny Law would finally break out big after having been the local Austin darling for most of the Eighties. Problem was, coming out of the glam rock era of the 80's, few of these labels really knew what to do with these bands or how to market them once they had them signed. The exception was the Black Crowes - fortunately signed by Warner/Wea and turned over to the capable hands of engineer Brendan O'Brien, who would later produce Johnny Law's debut album. Nevertheless, it seemed that all the ingredints were in place for the same sort of success that the Crowes experienced to be emulated by what was a musically more talented group and a better song writing duo in Brady Hughes and Erik Larson, the two lead guitarists of the band. And that is not a knock on the Crowes - a great band - it is just simply a consensus fact by anyone who had ever seen the bands play live or session in rehearsals. Johnny Law went into the recording studio the summer of 1990 able to draw on a playlist of songs more than sixty deep, all original compositions, for their first album. The Crowes, a half and half band (originals versus covers), could not boast the same. Few bands could going into their first sessions. Metal Blade, the label that had signed Johnny Law was terribly enthusiastic about their new find - and for them, a totally new direction and sound - and hoped that Johnny Law would be the band to broaden their offering beyond what for them had always been the slash metal niche and metal performance bands such as GWAR. Johnny Law had the potential to be their break out band too. But the rep that had signed them soon started running into cold feet and vascillation back at the office in Los Angeles. They were having second thoughts, even though the advanced reviews prior to the album's release were strong and positive. During the band's first trip out to L.A. to do some club dates and photo sessions for the album art work, Metal Blade started dropping hints that the guys look wasn't quite right. Flowing bohemian shirts and jeans might work for the Black Crowes, but Metal Blade's stock in trade were long flowing hairdos, black leather pants and dark eye shadow. The band, Erik Larson (guitar and lead vocals), Ron McRae (bass), Matt Dunlap (drums) and Brady Hughes (guitar), were naturally reluctant to suddenly adopt a style that was not naturally theirs. The photo session was a dead end, the photographer an amateur, and the results - predictably - poor. No one was happy. A simple stock photo of an old police crusier would eventually adorn the cover. The next problem arose when Metal Blade didn't know where to put the band in terms of attaching Johnny Law as an opening act on some of the regional tours in the Spring of 1991. Natural pairs like the Black Crowes or Drivin'n'Cryin did not materialize, instead they were stuck with the excellent blues artist Steve Morse, hardly Johnny Laws potential audience. An audience of whom most would be in their late 30's or 40's, and not likely to be buying thousands of CD's of the hard driving rock band. 1991 was also the summer of the travelling rock and roll road show, and today everyone remembers Lollapalooza, but few remember the Gathering of the Tribes, the rival rock and roll road show. Johnny Law had the misfortune to be slated for the latter - another fine Metal Blade decision - Lollapalooza flourished as did many of the bands from the exposure that show brought. The Tribes festival collapsed and cancelled. Soon after what money Metal Blade had earmarked for promoting their new band was withdrawn and a music video for their single "Too Weak to Fight" - an absolute must - was killed. The choice of that single had also been a terrrible point of contention between the band and the label. The track penned by former Georgia Satellite and band friend Dan Baird was one of only two covers on the eleven track CD, the other being Ronnie Wood's (Rolling Stones guitarist) "We All Get Old". The band wanted to lead with one of their tracks, nervous label execs went with the cover. The rest is history. Listen to the album for yourself, you can still find the copies, it was well distributed by Warner - I bought my copy in New Jersey, other fans bought theirs in Germany and Holland. And you can hear their song "Hold Me Down" in the opening sequence of the movie "Freddy's Dead - The Final Nightmare" of the Nightmare of Elm Street series of films or mentioned in the tape archives of the Howard Stern show when Chris Robinson of the Black Crowes said that one of the best bands he was listening to at the time was Johnny Law. But the best don't necessarily make it. Enjoy.

Album Description

Twisted Americana Acoustic Funk - Imagine the acoustic funk of Dave Matthews combined with the raw vocal energy of The Man In Black himself, Johnny Cash. Now throw in some kick-ass bass riffs (female bass players rule!), slammin' drum licks, and a "monster sexy" guitarist who switches between Jimi Hendrix-style electric guitar and a merciless assault of slapping the freakin' sh*t out of his poor ol' battered Martin acoustic -- tuned way down below buffalo hell -- and you'll start to get the idea. Just listen to the album and see what I mean!
