Okay, have listened. Really cool. But, tell me, is this one album, or is this an entire string of soundtracks?

An entire string, actually...there's actually a box set for the TV series soundtracks, but even that doesn't include two more discs for the Movie soundtrack...

Loved this series, especially the music. My fav tunes were the one in the first episode and in the episode where Ed searches for her Father, which, ironically, I don't think are posted razz The best by far though was "Ask DNA" from the movie...that opening was really cool.

And yes, the Macross Plus soundtrack as mentioned above is amazing.
music I'm afraid of Americans. I'm afraid of the world. music

I thought that was kool, although that opening riff reminds me of Carole King's, tune "It's Too Late"...

When it comes to Japanese animation, they pull out all the stops when it comes to the music.
