Review by Jacky

A great soundtrack for the great sequels. It's quite amazing to me that only two composers worked on it. It also includes some bonus tracks from the previous games and a fourth disc with the additional music from the Emerald and Platinum versions, so if you enjoyed the games and/or their music and/or you want to "complete" the soundtracks from previous games, then this album is for you.

A very good album with (in my opinion) one of the most impressive soundtracks ever: The Japanese music from Sonic CD. It also has two remixes from the US version (as well as its Opening Theme), which are quite good overall. But it also has its flaws: Most tracks feature looping sections (the original game couldn't handle them, due to being recorded as standalone CDDA tracks), which are mostly put in a abrupt and/or disturbing way, and the bonus tracks can be seen as "out of context in a Japanese-only soundtrack version" by some people. Despite this, I still think that this album is quite worth it if you love the music and/or the game (or even the Sonic franchise itself). Recommended.

After 20 years of waiting, classic Sonic fans are finally awarded with a proper soundtrack release of the first two Mega Drive/Genesis games in superb quality! It also includes the demo versions of both games' music! Highly recommended.
