A Soundtrak of awe and inspiration

Pros: The diversity of music and the connotive catharis from view the TV series

Cons: Price- the newly released collectors edition runs over $100

This soundtrack is best enjoyed after watching the tv series. As the music is played during the show, it perfectly complements the genius and simplicity of Carl Sagan's scientific exploration of all things. The ultimate collection of human knowledge should be standard viewing for all middle school children. Listening the soundtrack after developing an appreciation for the tv program takes you back to the awesome feeling of wonder and amazement that you experience passively while watching the program. The cd is means of passing into a transedental state of concentration and meditative enjoyment. Both the highly acclaimed series and the soundtrack reflect the impact that Carl Sagan left on the world. At the time of its publication, it was the most objective, positive, and well preseted piece of political and education machinery ever produced. Carl Sagan, who was undoubtably one of the most good intentioned and brillant men to ever live,"as far as we know", has inabled all of humanity the ability to experience a breath-taking enlightenment usually only experienced by those fortunate to be open-minded and educated. I highly recommend its purchase to anyone who enjoyed the series or any or Carl Sagans treasures. ...
