Usually, I'm very skeptical of compilation CD's --- performers and genres that make a listener wonder who the heck could like these songs that are so wildly different from each other.
But I like CSI's soundtrack (tho I don't care for #11). The tracks keep me groovin' while I'm working on my computer or in my garage. Nevermind that you may never have heard many of these artists before. The soundtrack definitely does the tv show justice (no pun intended.)

The music has always been a strong feature of the program "CSI," so my expectations were high for the show's soundtrack CD. This CD meets and sometimes even exceeds those expectations. It has a super line-up of cool and ear-friendly tunes, most notably a strong new Wallflowers cut, "Everybody Out Of The Water." Of course it begins with the obligatory theme song, the Who's "Who Are You." (I was pleased and amused when the show's producers picked yet another Who song for the new "CSI: Miami" spinoff. At least they don't face the dilemma of the "Law & Order" people, having to turn out yet another minor variation on the basic "L&O" theme every time THEY do a spinoff.) The final two tracks were written by John Keane, the show's primary composer. In between the Who and Mr. Keane is some prime stuff.
To me, one important feature of a quality soundtrack CD is that it introduces me to artists I wasn't all that familiar with before. This disc achieves that with intriguing songs from Badmash & Shri, Grand Theft Auto, and Bliss. The songs by more familiar people are pretty fine too, especially the dreamy "Inhaler" from Hooverphonic and Curve's energetic "Hell Above Water." I hope the CSI team follows the practice of other TV shows such as "Friends" and "Dawson's Creek" and later puts out a 2nd soundtrack CD!

With me liking CSI so much, I just had to go and buy this sound track. The music of CSI is one of the reasons I like the series so much.
And the sound track didn't disappoint me. It has great, funky music that perfectly mirrors the pace any episode sets.
The only thing missing is information about whick track featured in which episode. Shame, in my opinion.

When I first ordered the sound track I had no idea what to expect, but I knew that I would probably like it.
Now that I have heard it (several times as it was pretty much the only CD I played over the weekend) I can honestly say that I LOVE it!
Some of the tracks took some getting used to, but they've by now grown on me. It's good rythmic music. This CD is made to play only one way: LOUD! (sorry, dear neighbours).
The only thing lacking is information about what track featured in what episode. That's a shame in my opinion.

I am always iffy about T.V. show soundtracks but this one is really cool - their song selection for the album was awesome.....great songs, plus I was introduced to a bunch of stuff I never would've gotten into otherwise (!).
Firstly, as a HUGE fan of Jakob Dylan, I was super super siked to see a new track by the Wallflowers. It's soooo good! It's one of my favorites on the album but I'm biased :)
There's also the theme song to the show "Who are You," by The Who, a classic song.
I didn't really know the other groups on the album that well but their songs are REALLY cool, a lot of European and ambient stuff I never would have listened to otherwise - I want to get some more stuff by the other artists, especially Timo Maas, The Chamber Brothers and New Order.
ALL CSI fans should get this, and all you Wallflowers fans should be all over it for the new material - that's why I bought it. I'm glad I did though because it really did introduce me to a bunch of cool music that I really never would have discovered if it weren't for the soundtrack.
