This time very much off the presses, we have the latest fifth volume of Neil Norman's homages to some of his favourite SF films and TV shows. I say some, cos a couple tracks are just added to make the number up and don't belong to anything really.
I don't use the word 'homage' lightly neither. In some cases, as with the original 'Mission: Impossible', 'Back To The Future' and 'Halloween' themes, they sound a lot like the originals. From the 'B' movies 'Robot Monster' (complete with Hu-Man' vocals) to 'The Crawling Eye' to the nearly obscure now 'Journey To The Far Side Of The Sun', there's a bit of everything, including the animated 'X-Men', a medley from 'The Lost World', 'Tales Of The Crypt' and one I've yet to come across but sounds snazzy, 'The Art Police'.
If you liked Neil Norman's earlier CDs, then check this one out and don't forget to check out his latest catalogue or off his website cos there's a lot of new stuff for us genre folk as well.
