Reviews from around the World Wide Web. It may seem like a fantasy, but "Superman: The Music (1978-1988)" (known informally as the "Blue Box") from specialty label Film Score Monthly (and co-producers Lukas Kendall and Michael Matessino with art direction by FSM designer Joe Sikoryak) is no careless product of wild imagination. No, my good friends, it's very real despite how unlikely. And just as good. What ties the eight CDs comprising four film scores and one cartoon score
together is the John Williams-penned, now classic, Superman Theme. There
is no musical theme more evocative of the Man of Steel than the theme
composed by John Williams for 1978's "Superman: The Movie".
Even "Superman" director Richard Donner has said that the first
time he heard the Superman Theme he was amazed that he could hear Superman's
name actually being sung in the theme's three note fanfare. "Superman:
The Music" celebrates the Superman theme's universal use in "Superman",
"Superman II", "Superman III", "Superman IV:
The Quest for Peace", and, as a nice surprise, the 1988 "Superman"
cartoon.
