Title: great material but not much new
Product review: So yeah, as far as Cowboy Bebop material goes, there's already been 3 OSTs, the movie soundtrack, the 4-disc box set, the remix CD, Vitaminless, Cowgirl Ed and Ask DNA. Now there's this one. Nine of the 12 songs from this can be found on one of those other records. The three that aren't are nothing particularly new and nothing to write home about. "Diamonds" is ballady track that's a bit over the top, and the other two newbies are filler compared to the rest of the album.Moreover, the pop vocal songs from the movie OST/Ask DNA ("No Reply" and "Gotta Knock a Little Harder" and "Cosmic Dare," great songs all) don't quite mesh with the more jazzy selections from the show. It's a rather weird selection. So while the content of this album is terrific, Bebop fans with many of the aforementioned releases already in their clutches don't really need it.
