With the rebirth (reincarnation, rather) of the outrageously popular sci-fi series Doctor Who on the BBC, here comes the soundtrack. This time out, Murray Gold mans the TARDIS' stereo controls and, with the help of accomplished orchestrator Ben Foster, offers up some of the best music the series has ever had. From the tasteful reworking of Ron Grainer's ubiquitous theme music to the Walker Brothers-channeling tracks by the Divine Comedy's Neil Hannon, this collection of music absolutely nails the vibe and style.
This is the first release of music from the series revival and includes the acclaimed new version of the theme. Neil Hannon (The Divine Comedy) performs two songs, Song For 10 and Love Don't Roam from The Runaway Bride.
Murray Gold is one of the best British composers working in film and TV and recent successes include Alien Autopsy, Casanova and Shameless.
