Hans Zimmer and Klaus Badelt produced the famed "Pirates of the Caribbean; Curse of the Black Pearl" soundtrack. He also re-composed the soundtrack for "Pirates of the Caribbean; Dead Man's Chest." The soundtrack value of "The Muppet Treasure Island" is no less stunning (speaking of the tracks on this CD numbered 9 through 15). I enjoy the muppets' singing, but that my not be for everybody. If you like soundtracks then add this to your list, if for nothing other than tracks 9 - 15! It is also a classic, seeing how Disney pulls the movies/soundtracks after a few years. I feel it was worth every penny!
For any lover of all things Pirate! Hans Zimmer's score is completely different here than that of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" scores and yet has his musical styling written all over it. The songs performed by the characters are equally as enjoyable and fit right in with sailor and pirate classics like "Yo ho, a Pirate's life for Me" and "Drunken Sailor". If you like the Muppets and/or pirates you'll love this score. On the unfortunate side this album in no longer in print and I couldn't find it on iTunes or Amazon Mp3. If you want this score you'll have to pick up a copy for resale here on ebay or elsewhere, but it is well worth it.
This cd changed my life. A once grey and morose world is now filled with color and adventure. All this is because Larry was able to make my wildest dreams come true. Perfect quality, all the great songs, and even a movie poster!!! I love it so much and I will never be the same! It makes the skin beneath my eyelids want to be tucked away.All my life, I have been searching for the muppet treasure island soundtrak, and now I have found that lima beans are not that tasty. Oh, and rutabega! It makes me want to eat arugela all night long!!!
I was so excited to find out this existed! They did not make many cassettes, and I didn't think they made CDs at all.
