Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)While I do own many CDs of Trek music (movies & TV), I don't own Volume 1 of the Best Of series -- but I had to get this one for one main reason: the music from "Bride of Chaotica!"
The music from this wonderful VGR episode harkens back to the early days of sci-fi television and movies, and is a complete joy to listen to. It's as campy as the "Captain Proton" holo-novel featured in the episode and the cues have a bounce and vigor that brings back the fun of the episode itself. Great stuff!
Not to be ignored, of course, is the music from the other Trek series. The TOS score is crisp and sounds better than ever. The Main Title never sounded so good! The action-packed suite from DS9's "Way of the Warrior" is grand and epic, and Nana Visitor's rendition of "Fever" from "His Way" is sultry and quite the bonus on this disc.
Closing off the CD is Dennis McCarthy's suite of music from TNG's series finale, "All Good Things..." (though why it doesn't appear between TOS and DS9 is a mystery). This is some of Dennis McCarthy's best work on the show and and it's great to slip back into the mystery and grandeur of that episode.
All in all, if you like music from the "Star Trek" TV series, then this is one I suggest you, ah, beam into your collection!
