I have the CD! Streets of Ankh Morpork is my favourite track! It's very eighties.

IT CAME OUT IN 94, just seen it for £3.99 and wondered what it sounded like and was worth getting.

I got it for Christmas from my daughter mainly to add to my Discworld collection. The musics ok, not my usual cup of tea but then you might like it..... :D


Also I know here in Australia iTunes has it so you can hear a snippet from each song if that helps.

Appologies WWD, I was thinking of something similar but not related that I own. :oops:
Any way, Streets of Ankh Morpork is STILL my favourite.

It's a bit of fun.

That was where I had seen it and got the price for it Tony.

@ Joolz I don't like their software it wants to take over everthing.

Did you play the samples on that page?

Click the small arrows on the left of each song. That should give you some idea of what each song sounds like. :)

Bought it in the 90's - I do like it, but some of the new agey electronica isn't really my sort of music. The songs (Wizard's Staff, Streets of Ankh-Morpork) are better than most of the instrumental pieces, in my opinion.

I agree, Molokov, it is still a bit of fun though.
