Free Music Notes for Doctor Who Original Music from Series 3 Album
Free Music Review: Almost great, but not quite
Hit: 4 Stars
This compilation of music from Season 3 of the latest incarnation of Doctor Who offers a lot, but not a lot of it offers the best. For example, there is more music from the two part stories "Human Nature" and "Family of Blood" than there is from "Runaway Bride" which to me was a much more exciting and enjoyable story. Additionally, a great deal of music seems to be missing from the three-episode "The Master" arc that concludes the season. But there are some wonderful gems. "This is Gallifrey - Our Childhood, Our Home" is a beautiful, evocative piece that pops up all over the final episodes. But much of the music of The Master's return is either truncated or not the same mix as shown in the episodes. That said, the excerpt of "Yana" does contain some of the most exciting music I've yet encountered in any of the episodes.
So, is this a buy worthy soundtrack? Definitely. Does it match the quality of the first release? Not quite. But that shouldn't stop any Who fan.
