REVIEW

September 27, 2007

The 11 tracks on this CD are suite like in that they all contain anywhere from 2 to 6 subsections.The music itself is a good mix of styles and tempos with some action tracks, some laid back tracks and a few sounding like jazz. The CD is a nice stand alone listening experience. I have never seen any of the Mighty Jack shows so can't comment on how well they do with the visuals but based on just the music would assume they go together well.Part of track 3 and part of some other tracks reminds me of the big Cecil B. DeMille movies grand orchestration and comes off similar to music heard in "The Ten Commandments" or "Gone With The WInd".

This CD is also number 159 from the ANIMEX 1200 series.
