To be honest, I was very happy that Murray Gold decided to release the whole of the Series 3 soundtrack by itself, instead of waiting for Series 4 too. This was the case with the soundtrack of the first two series of the revived Doctor Who. And of course, he doesn't disappoint.

The first track in the album is titled: All the Strange, Strange creatures. I must say, this is my favourite track, as it sums up the action of the third series very well. When I was listening to that track in particular, my mind raced back to the scene in the penultimate episode of the series, where the Doctor and Martha were fleeing from armed police.

Again, Murray wow us with his composition skills, managing to bring together all sorts of music genres, from classical, to orchestral, and even some rock, in the form of the Master Vainglorious medley. There's also an interesting input from Mamit Yamo, who provides the only proper vocal tracks in the album. Murray specialises in purely incidental music.

One thing that is rather disappointing, is how Murray seems to repeat segments of songs inside the album. Examples would be the 'YANA' and 'Futurekind' tracks, which borrow extensively from the starting Strange, Strange Creatures track. Nevertheless, this album is a worthy purchase, even if you're not a Doctor Who fan!

We know a few people who played in the orchestra for these soundtracks.

Heya nice start. Though there could be a lot more you could write! If you have a look at a few other reviews, perhaps ones from the Series 1/2 soundtrack, Im sure you will get some ideas! If you edit, let me know and I will be happy to take another look! amy xx
