REVIEW:
As an instrumental collection, it offers some good background. Bolstered by solid sound quality, the 101 Strings Orchestra isn’t hampered by any weak spots. The only drawback is an ultra-generic and slightly misleading album title (since a few TV shows are included). A few tracks, unfortunately, are too brief, but the compensation is Track 10’s extended Star Wars medley. Science Fiction Movie Music isn’t worth purchasing a new copy, but, as a garage sale or thrift store find, it’s nifty.
