V => the soundtracks
I just took a look at the remake (first two eps) and found it OK (for now!)
Even if the casting directions are pretty lame (not the acting, only the casting.. => replace the viking tv reporter by a FBI woman agent, replace the 'girl falling in love with a V' by a 'boy falling in love with a V' .. and we miss (for now?) a bunch of great characters of the original series as well..), the concept remains the same and the few additions to it are pretty decent.. (I guess I can't talk about it without spoilers so let's forget about it.............)
Those scores are imo ***/***** :
Some really great tracks, some so-so ones, some 'classic/not-that-interesting' ones..
Anyway.. I'm pretty sure you'll enjoy some.........

A wonderful and timely post in the light of the current "V" re-model. I must admit, I did approach the new series with some trepidation as most contempory remakes of classic seventies/eighties films and TV series are but pale dumbed down shadows of the originals (except for the Battlestar Galactica remake which in my opinion is up there with Lost as a contender for the greatest TV series of the C21st so far).
Having watched the first three episodes of the new 'V', I was pleasantly shocked, its pretty damned good! The 'Childhood's End' crafts over major cities scenes were incredible, yet the usual style over substance approach to current film-making where CGI is God and narrative an after thought was happily missing an the multiple storylines were engaging.
Anyway, I digress..thanks so much for the audio and I had no idea that Barry de Vorzen of Warriors fame was responsible for some of the music, as you rightly say,its a mixed bag, but lets face it, most soundtracks are!
Yes i agree with you there. The original version is always way better than the remake!
Greet and congratulate the excellent publication of the soundtrack of the TV miniseries "V Visitors 1983", please kindly upload these fantastic new soundtracks.
I appreciate your kind help, attention and prompt reply.
