Free Music Notes for Due South, Vol. II: The Original Television Soundtrack
Free Music Review: Excellent Canadian fare!
Hit: 5 Stars
I am a huge fan of Due South. Even if you're not, though, you need to give this album a listen. There are two tracks on this CD that I don't enjoy..."Take Me Out to the Ballgame" and "Slave to Your Love." That's it. I still cry when I listen to "Holy Tears," because of the emotional last episode. "32 Down on the Robert MacKenzie" is an excellent, catchy song; it belongs with Gordon Lightfoot's "Ballad of Yarmouth Castle" and "Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald," other excellent Canadian story-songs about shipwrecks. Speaking of Gordon Lightfoot, Sarah McLachlan's remake of his "Song for a Winter's Night" is excellent--how I would love to hear her and Gordon do a duet of this song! "Western End of the Trail" is another great song...I would love to get a Due South Score by Jay Semko. And the "Due South Theme '97" is great, the traditional theme with a soaring electric guitar line.I highly recommend this album!

I'm not a fan of sequals by any means but I have to admit that when I first heard this CD I was really suprised...it's totally diffrent from the first one in that it's more based on rock must more than anything else.The best track has to be 'From a Million Miles' which should have had a place on the First CD seeing as that piece was in the Pilot episode of the show!...what went wrong there I don't know. 32 Down on the Robert Makenzie was also another good one along with Captian Tractor and Drunken Salior which can be good fun to sing after a hockey or basketball game and a few drinks in the local bar ;)...
Highly recommended...go out and buy it!

Definitely Quirky - much like the show itself! No two DueSers seem to like the same things! I loved the Sarah McLachlan and Tara McLean tracks. But the best tracks for me were the ones written for Due South by Jay Semko and Jack Lenz, specifically "The Western End of the Trail". Brilliant! Due South uses it's soundtrack/background music as well as, if not better than, any other show on TV. And it's no bad thing to be introduced to some great *Canadian* artists we Yanks might otherwise never hear about. Thank You Kindly!Free Music Review: Quite definitely one of my favorite CDs

I really enjoyed this CD from the beginning to the end. It had many different styles of songs, most enjoyable, and in this setup it kept my attention through the whole CD. Personally, my favorite tracks were the first 4, including Drunken Sailor and Robert MacKenzie and Mind. I also liked From a Million Miles, and Sarah McLachlan's single. As a consolation to Due South ending, I highly recommend this CD!!Free Music Review: A Great Eclectic Sampler

This is a great CD if you like listening to a wide range of music on one CD. If not, it is also a good starting point for finding new CDs. I have CDs of a lot of the contributing artists, and these songs are representative of their music overall.The first volume is also good. There is a bit lighter tone to it in my opinion. GREAT spectrum of some Canadian music, in my opinion.
