Has anyone heard " The Stewart Copeland Anthology Yet&q

So you'd say it would be worth to get the videogame to hear the soundtrack?

Yes, me too, but I posed the question not clearly. My Bad.
I meant is the rest of the Spyro tracks available only on the videogames?

[quote="Kalypso"] I got why Layla wanted a divorce. :wink:[/quote] :?


Kalypso, I think you mean Kate. Layla is Andy's daughter.

Sorry, I am a little verklempt today...The Anthology and The Close Up in Throb sent my head in a tailspin...Yes, I mean Kate (who should be a blonde, according to what Andy writes in OTL). Maybe she is the fair hair lady at the end of the book, where there is also probably Layla mooning the camera.
Well, there is this unhibited and ubiquitous brunette who obviously Andy considered a great model for his book...

Yay, I got to listen to mine today.

My first reaction is damn, I want more.

(Yes, super-happy with the tracks I hadn't heard before, but still. I. Want. More. It's all a big tease to the long-time faithful.)

I'll no doubt write up something more lengthy for Amazon when I'm feeling more with it.

I had the same feeling. I feel so ingrateful for wanting more but that's want I want. COMPLETE SOUNDTRACKS. A WHOLE GIZMO ALBUM. Maybe my daughter will get the Spyro games for her birthday (August 22) and I'll spend a lot of time listening to her play. :)

That's exactly the reaction I'm expecting I'll have when I get mine. And I wouldn't be surprised if plans were already afoot for future volumes, maybe at least a second one before the reunion tour ends or maybe some itunes only tracks to keep feeding our addiction a little at a time in the meantime.

I loved it so much that for the first 3 games, I hooked up console to my TV-tuner card in my pc and recorded the audio through my soundcard.

Brilliant, Conroy!
Wish I had an Xbox or lived closer to my brother, who is editor in chief for a videogames magazine and has all the tools under the sun. Might ask him to do something like that for me. 8)

Very good tracks, wets my appetite for more, especially Gizmo. Big Drum Tribe really got my juices flowing :lol:

Great work Eugenio on the Art, and great job Stewart and all involved in bringing this to the masses.

Too little Regret...I wish Stew had already composed the rest! OMG, now HE taught us to appreciate Instant Gratification instead of 5-hour tantra...

Yeah, that little track really DOES cry out for a symphony...I've always loved Stewart's piano pieces, "Green Fingers (Ten Thumbs)" from the Equalizer album is still one of my absolute favorites.

The liner notes say a lot about his unrequited love for the piano, in more than one case...I loved when he said, about Equalizer, that he HAD to add his own piano solos once he got home (MIDI of course) :D

I think it goes back to the Does Everyone Stare intro...it is SO him.

It's funny how Stewart has come to love the piano when he has often referred the style that his sister used when trying to teach him how to play it as a child as "The Hitler Method".
