It was 1980, when I remember seeing a poster in school. That was the first thing I saw that had to do about "Cosmos". Some time later, my father used our first VCR to record a science show on PBS called "Cosmos". I was able to see it more than once, as well as other episodes. Educational stuff, cool props and good selelction of music.One day while at a record store, I discovered a record called The Music Of Cosmos. Since I like some of the music, I thought I would buy it. The music is like a sampler of classical, electronic and other kinds of music. It introduced me to Vangelis, Synergy, and Tomita. It also introduced me to Shostakovich's 11th Symphony. I also got Bach* - Arthur Grumiaux - Complete Sonatas And Partitas For Solo Violin. The music on this "Cosmos" soundtrack is for those who would like Electronic/Techno/Ambient and Classical music.One minor drawback: On the first and fourth tracks, the music would fade in during the first few seconds. It's not like that on the vinyl album. But that little drawback shouldn't be enough to ruin the CD version. (I still have both versions. by the way).Although it's hard to get right now. If you do find it, chances are, you might have to pay a lot. Perhaps if it ever does get reissued, the 1st and 4th tracks might as well be more complete like the vinyl version.Also get the 2 CD version (Various - The Music Of "Cosmos": Selections From The Score Of The Television Series "Cosmos" By Carl Sagan). But that, too, is hard to get right now... and you might have to pay a lot.I would like a reissue of both versions. It outta be a 3-CD set containing the "single disc" and "double disc" versions on one collection.
