The Sony minidisc version of Philadelphia is an A+. Contains the same songs as the CD. The digital transfer is flawless. Of course the real beauty is the fact that the music is on a minidisc. As only a few thousand titles were ever produced, minidiscs have become more and more rare. Besides the collectibility of minidiscs, the format is superior to the common CD in many ways: 1. Size - the minidisc is is about the size of a large pack of matches. 2. Protective Case - The disc is protected in a protective case, much like the old floppy disc or a zip disc, preventing scratches to the disc surface. 3. Portability - Because of the small size and protective disc case, the minidisc can take a beating. You can toss them in your car, purse, bag, carry on, etc.. with out the larger disc case w/insert cover and your disc will be fine. Most minidiscs were pop, rock, jazz and soundtracks, but you there were a few more obscure titles produces (punk, alternative rock, classic rock, etc...) It's too bad that the minidisc never caught on in the US as it did in Japan. The minidisc is still alive with the Hi-MD format (that is backwards compatible with regular MD and MDLP) with 1 GB of data and music storage but pre-recorded discs have now been discontinued in the US.Read full review
I usually don't review music. This is one CD that I must speak out about. First of all, the soundtrack to this film is excellent. I remember when Best Soundtrack for that year started the propaganda, it was between 2 songs "Philadelphia", Bruce and Neil. Don't get me wrong I love Bruce, but the better song was Neil's. Neil actually put some heart and soul in the sound, Bruce just did Bruce. In my humble opinion, it was a "popularity" contest and I guess Bruce was hotter.. Judge it on your own merit, Neil's song was far superior and captured the essence of the film.
I bought this Philadelphia sound track soon after the movie. Back in November 2018 we lost our whole community in the camp fire. I just had to replace my CD. It came packaged well and in excellent shape..I love this sound track. Philadelphia is one of those sound tracks that moves your soul.. Thank you so much, I'm very pleased with my purchase.
