## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A masterpiece that must be heard to be appreciated
            
*by D***E on December 31, 2018*

I really wish the cover art for the album would get updated.  As far as the music goes, the performance is indescribable!  Richard Burton narrating, vocals by Justin Hayward of the Moody Blues...  An entire orchestra...  I have been a fan of this piece since the 80's.
  

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Really Brings WOTW Alive
            
*by S***D on March 10, 2014*

Like Rick Wakeman's musical version of Jules Verne's Journey to the Center of the Earth, this rendition of H. G. Wells' War of the Worlds by Jeff Wayne combines original music with readings of the text.  Wayne's WOTW has more text reading than music, (compared to the Wakeman-Verne recording) but that's fine.  This version, with its strange music and otherworldly sound effects really puts you in the time and setting of Wells' story and gives a heightened feeling of the horror of confronting his Martians with their advanced technology.  (The picture of the Martian tripods on the cover is not accurate, but that's a quibble.)  The "Ulla" cries of the Martians sound odd and scary at the beginning but come across as mournful at the end.  The musical numbers fit the story well, are well sung, and are nice melodies that will stick with you.  Overall a fine performance that will please fans of H.G. Wells, as well as fans of science fiction in general.
  

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great SF Listening
            
*by T***G on July 7, 2013*

One of the best of the "rock operas," carrying on a tradition of sf adaptations that goes back to Offenbach's "Tales of Hoffmann" and "From the Earth to the Moon."  Ordered it for an unusual reason after misplacing my old CD edition...needed "Forever Autumn" for my funeral music.  Originally turned on to this by my wife-to-be...was Our Song, specifically with the Richard Burton narration.  I discovered after receiving this (well ahead of the scheduled delivery date) that H.G. Wells and Orson Welles did a joint radio appearance in 1941, when they discussed Welles' 1938 adaptation and Wells plugged "Citizen Kane."  Gotta love the signature sound effect of the cyinder's lid unscrewing (which Welles did with a large jar in a toilet stall).  As the story implies, small world!
