3 out of 5 stars Yes,but it's not the soundtrack to the book!.......2007-07-11

Everybody here thinks the music on the Robert Berry CD is the soundtrack to the book series The Wheel of Time.
NO!It's the soundtrack to the PC game from 1998 with the same name!
I happen to have both and I can confirm the music is basically the same.
So my guess is the makers of the PC game asked Berry to record the music for the game and some stuff got left out.
He decided to record some tracks with members from Celt Rock group Tempest (great band!) to make it complete/some money.
Sure the album isn't great but there's some nice tracks anyway.

Nod bad.Not great.

1 out of 5 stars Gleemen do not use synthesizers.......2006-08-23

None of these songs are particularly inspired, and as other reviewers have mentioned, it was way too modern for the tone of the books. Electronic instruments and 80's-style power ballads have no place in fantasy universes.

Should've gone with a Knight's Tale format if he wanted to make it modern. At least you can giggle along to the fact that it would suggest it KNOWS it's inappropriate.

Besides, who hasn't read the massive One Power battles with "Rock You Like A Hurricane" in the back of their mind?!

5 out of 5 stars It IS good!.......2006-08-17

I HAD to own this CD once I realised there was one. I have rather alot of reviews that say it doesn't go well w/ the books. In a few of the songs it doesn't go but most of them do. The male vocals could use a bit of work, they are not horrible, but they aren't what you would buy the soundtrack for either! They female vocals on the other hand are much better. She really sings well on the CD, but again they could use somework. I could sit and listen to this w/out reading the books, but I could also read the books. I think that the songs go well w/ the books because the books have a modern day feel to them as well as a medieval feel. As well for not being able to afford a profesional concert band he did really well on the instraments he chose. I think it is good that he incorprated modern day instraments as is really shows the attitude of the books. This CD is worth buying is you like this kind of music and/or you love the fantisy world that Robert Jorden has created!

2 out of 5 stars Good music, but not Wheel of Time..........2006-01-25

I tell you first that I only heard the clips on this page. Then, I thinks it's very good music, but it sounds like it would have been better for Halo or Emperor: Battle for Dune, it's somewhat epic but too much artificial, mechanized for a fantasy saga where the newest technology is a crossbow... Buy it if you like the music, but if you are looking for something to hear while you read the books buy LOTR sondtrack.

1 out of 5 stars horrible.......2006-01-25

Maybe the artist should have glanced at the cover on one of the books before starting this, reading one or two couldn't have hurt either.

I may be wrong on the artist's goal, but due to the fact that the music fits in not at all with the books it appears that he wished to cash in on a big name, and this was it.

Even modern instruments would have been OK, but electric keyboard? come on!!!
