From: <bang!root@Nosc> L. Ron Hubbards latest epic; "Battle Field Earth" comes complete with ads for the 'dynamic' musical score that he wrote for the book. I guess you're supposed to play the record while reading the novel. Has anyone heard the music? Is it any good? The book itself was mediocre, I can guess what the music must be like.

I've got the album. I ordered it from the ad in a friend's book because it listed Chick Corea as one of the performers. I don't have anything good to say about it. I've put it in my musical humor collection next to the Temple City Kazoo Orchestra album. It's not something to be taken seriously. I had next to no desire to read the book, having dismissed it as trivial space opera. After hearing the album I have even less desire to read it. -Danny -- -- CAUTION: WET FLOOR <== Is this a warning or a command? -- Danny Sharpe School of ICS Georgia Insitute of Technology, Atlanta Georgia, 30332 ...!{akgua,allegra,amd,hplabs,ihnp4,seismo,ut-ngp}!gatech!gitpyr!dts
