SOMETHING HAPPENED HERE October 20, 2009 alain robert (ST-HUBERT,QUÉBEC) This is a good sample of the music from the famous documentary.However,be warned,many tracks are not listed under their real titles.If you've never heard the score before for instance,you won't notice that GUADALCANAL MARCH and BENEATH THE SOUTHERN CROSS are actually THEME OF THE FAST CARRIERS and FIRE ON THE WATERS.Is it HISTORY CHANNEL or Q RECORDS who are responsable of those mistakes?Apart from that,you can still buy that cd and enjoy that best of of VICTORY AT SEA.
Victory at Sea, Volume I, More Victory at Sea March 4, 2006 Billy D. Hollaway (North Little Rock, AR) 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
I have purchased two copies of each CD from different sources and find the recordings are apparently faulty on the last two tracks of each. I thought my first incident was my fault, however, the second had the same flaw.
Amazon lists wrong conductor March 20, 2004 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
Amazon lists Richard Rodgers as both the composer and conductor. Of course, Robert Russell Bennett is the conductor. Amazon's correction form doesn't allow for an accurate correction suggestion. I haven't played my old records for a while, but the CD sounds as I remember them. Too bad it doesn't contain the full contents of the three records.
A few good pieces missing October 15, 2003 daniel h warner (indianapolis, in USA) 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
I have a 2-audiotape set with 3 additional pieces that are sadly missing here. Magnetic North so well portrays the cold and harsh war in the Aleutian Islands as it was presented in the TV series. It always raises goose bumps at its haunting conclusion with strings emulating the artic winds. Mediterranean Mosaic and Mare Nostrum are 2 others that I would have preferred over the Symphonic Suite, which I have never heard on 2 different audio tape versions or a 33 1/3 vinyl set.
disappointment May 15, 2003 17 out of 18 found this review helpful
After reading the reviews and discovering that the CD is not the same as the original records that I still own, I do not plan on purchasing the CD until RCA releases what was/is a magnificent piece of work. Perhaps it is political corectness that is keeping them from releasing the "original" work "uncensored". Until such time as they give the present generation a look into one of the greatest recordings made, I will stay with my 33 1/3 rpm recordings, and transfer them to my computer myself...
