Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars It should have been the only sound track..........2006-11-21

Legend: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack by Tangerine Dream should have been the only soundtrack for the film. Tangerine Dream's score captures the essence of the fantasy realm created in the film. Goldsmith's score, on the other hand, better fits a historical film. I love the score by Tangerine Dream and am delighted to have finally attained a copy.

5 out of 5 stars Why so much????.......2006-04-17

I have this album on casset, and I love it. Legend is one of those movies that has an unforgettable effect on your life, and this soundtrack takes you back to the world of imagination that springs eternally from youth. Like I said I have it on tape, and I have wanted it on CD for years, but the price has been prohibitive of that.

Why on earth does it cost so much? Did the only make 12 of them or something? I mean really $50+ for a cd of no lnger lenght than any other really, and from a movie that in it's day went almost completely unnoticed. I just don't get it.

Still, drink 'em if you got 'em, cuz this is the best soundtrack in history.

5 out of 5 stars A Magical Soundtrack.......2005-11-19

I have over 1000 cds in my collection but only one soundtrack, and this is it! The music is from the excellent movie Legend which was re-released on DVD a few years ago with an extra musical score by Jerry Goldsmith. But I still prefer this score by Tangerine Dream. My favorite tracks are Cottage (beautiful melody), Loved By The Sun (featuring Jon Anderson from Yes), Darkness (haunting), and the excellent ballad Is Your Love Strongh Enough? featuring Bryan Ferry (Roxy Music) on vocals and David Gilmour (Pink Floyd) on guitar. Get this cd, find a comfortable place, and enter the magical world of Legend.

5 out of 5 stars My all-time favorite movie.......2005-10-31

This is one of my favorite movies ever. I used to watch it every day when I was little. Everything about this film is awesome, actors, music, costuming, make-up, tim curry's sexiness....everything. Last night I saw the director's cut for the first time with Mr. goldberg's score. I thought it was fascinating to see all the extra footage and I really enjoyed this more classic sounding score. I think that the US theatrical release version is better though, the director's cut seemed to include a lot of little scenes that were obviously cut out for a reason (most notably some of the overacted scenes with the gump). I think both soundtracks are fantastic, and we're lucky to have two different versions of such a beautiful film, but I think Tangerine Dream's score matches the story so much better. The main things I though were better was the dance song, Goldberg's score in this scene is much too lighthearted, where tangerine dream's is etheral and eery. The other thing was the ending song, legend just isn't legend without "Loved By The Sun", even when replaced by another lovely song. I get all squishy inside when I hear the US music, maybe I'm partial to it because of sentimental reasons. I reccomend seeing both versions of the movie, (I'd go for the shorter one first, then it's more fun to see what was cut out!) And both CDs are awesome, but I'd buy Tangerine Dream's over Goldbergs'.

5 out of 5 stars Finally I've found it!!.......2005-04-24

I fell in love with this movie when I first saw it in the early eighties (in my teens). Then I found out about the soundtrack from a friend a few years later. I wasn't into soundtracks back then, but when I heard it i immediately fell in love with IT. I saw someone call it "ethereal" in nature. I most certainly agree. I love music that takes me far away to fairy-tale lands of mossy green fields/forests and creatures of the mystic world. Tangerine Dream does this for me as well as Yes' Jon Anderson (hello Yes fans everywhere) and Brian Ferry's music to name just a few. So for all these super artists to be on the one album is the cat's meow for me. I lost my copy of Legend years ago and never really got around to trying to find it again until my teen daughter wanted to see the movie. My taped copy is warped from listening to it so much in my teens. I'm sorry to see that Amazon does not have any copies available now that I've finally found it again.
