		<title>Space 1999: Year Two &#8211; music by Derek Wadsworth</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The often unfairly derided &#8217;70s sci-fi melodrama Space: 1999 is a classic example of a TV show whose renewal came at the expense of a lot of creative interference.  Wanting to ramp up the action and romance in an effort to boost ratings, please the advertisers and justify the expense of making the thing [...]]]></description>

		<title>Space Battleship Yamato: Rebirth Chapter</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Sometimes I review soundtracks without having seen the movies first.  Sometimes this happens because the soundtrack is part of a merchandising blitz ahead of the movie release (see: every Star Wars soundtrack over the past decade-and-then-some).  Sometimes I just haven&#8217;t gotten around to seeing the movie yet, or the soundtrack&#8217;s been sent to [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Andromeda Strain &#8211; music by Gil Melle</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In the early 1970s, while the British viewing public had been treated to electronic music in films and TV via the likes of Tristram Cary and the BBC Radiophonic Workshop, the film scoring scene in America had stayed rooted in orchestral scores and, increasingly, pop-music-compilations-as-soundtracks.  The Andromeda Strain was a bit of an aural [...]]]></description>

		<title>White Noise &#8211; An Electric Storm</title>
		<description><![CDATA[An Electric Storm is the adventurous debut album by a British outfit called White Noise.  Even if the group is new to you, its members are familiar names: White Noise was a collaboration between electronic musician David Vorhaus and BBC Radiophonic Workshop members Brian Hodgson and Delia Derbyshire, doing a little bit of work [...]]]></description>

		<title>Raymond Scott &#8211; Manhattan Research, Inc.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Perhaps unfairly best known for having his music repurposed into the backing tracks for classic Warner Bros. cartoons, the late Raymond Scott has another claim to fame that often gets overlooked &#8211; he was one of the true pioneers of electronic music in America.  In this area, Scott was a true renaissance man: not [...]]]></description>

		<title>Black Sunday &#8211; music by John Williams</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Let&#8217;s say it&#8217;s the 1970s, and you&#8217;re doing a movie about a plot to kill a lot of people at the Super Bowl &#8211; a movie that won&#8217;t wind up on MST3K.  A disaster movie, a well-worn and dying breed at the time, one that requires a big, dramatic orchestral score.  Who do [...]]]></description>

		<title>The John Baker Tapes, Volume 1: BBC Radiophonics</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As one of the early geniuses who performed, composed and experimented as the legendary (and now sadly defunct) BBC Radiophonic Workshop, the late John Baker created offbeat music and special sounds that fitted in perfectly with the Workshop&#8217;s &#8220;house style&#8221; (if indeed it can be said to have had one), and yet Baker&#8217;s pieces have [...]]]></description>

		<title>Rubber Universe &#8211; Parliament Of Fooles</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A few years ago, I raved at great length about L.E.O., a loose collective of (largely) indie label power-pop veterans joining forces to pay a &#8220;stylistic&#8221; tribute to Electric Light Orchestra without covering any of the band&#8217;s existing songs.  I&#8217;ve always held ELO and Alan Parsons Project in a similarly high esteem &#8211; both [...]]]></description>

		<title>Tim Finn &#8211; North, South, East, West&#8230;: Anthology</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s something of an understatement to say that Tim Finn has earned a best-of album by now.  The only catch is that it&#8217;s taken so long that there&#8217;s probably a whole generation in New Zealand &#8211; never mind everywhere else &#8211; asking &#8220;Tim who?&#8221;  Hence, North, South, East, West&#8230; has a bit of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Back To The Future &#8211; music by Alan Silvestri</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Back To The Future is back! It&#8217;s not that there&#8217;s never been a Back To The Future soundtrack before; on the contrary, it was quite a hit, leaning heavily on the popular songs by Huey Lewis and the News. It featured a couple of snippets of the orchestral score by Alan Silvestri, and the rest [...]]]></description>
