No, there is no Randy Newman on this album. This is the Season One soundtrack. I do like "It's A Jungle Out There", but not as much as the original theme, presented here in three versions! Jeff Beal's amazing jazz score for the first season ranged from peppy and fun to dark and moody and helped set the tone for some of the greatest scenes in the series. The main theme and "A Clean Apartment" are so much fun to listen to that they demand multiple replayings, and "Trudy's Theme" is hauntingly beautiful. Any true Monk fan should add this to their music collection immediately.

Dear Monk Fans,
This CD contains the wonderful music written for the show by Jeff Beal. Long before it became a Jungle Out There...Beal's peppy Emmy-winning instrumental theme was the one all Monk fans were humming. That theme is on this CD, along with the haunting "Trudy's Theme" and the jaunty, jazzy music we hear as underscore to the series. There is NO Randy Newman on this CD...write to USA Network if you want that theme, but don't penalize the ratings of this terrific CD!

The only song I wanted was "It's a Jungle Out There". How do I get it? On the monk web site you can listen to the song but you cannot buy it. What kind of world is this when you can't get the songs you want, oh yea It's a Jungle Out There. You can buy the episode at the apple web site but there are no results from a search on the song. Unhappy. PS if the records execs are going to keep us from swapping music they should make avaiable all the music I could of swapped. that is the least they could do but most of my searches are not available.

I purchased this CD so I could play the theme from Monk on the first day of school. On TV the singer sings It's a Jungle Out There. Since our theme this year was the jungle, I thought this would be the perfect song to have playing when students arrived the first day. However, this CD contains only music. The theme song is nowhere to be found. I was very disappointed. It says the theme songs from Monk. If this is true, where is the song one hears at the beginning of each episode? I felt the advertisement was very misleading. I now have a CD that I have paid for and will not be able to use.

If you are a fan of Monk, and/or if you are just a fan of 'souondtrack music' in general, you will not be disappointed by this album.
This includes the first season theme, several reprises, and plenty of 'incidental' music from the series. The use of themes and colors in the orchestration is very entertaining, whether you are familiar with the series or not.
The only drawback is that it does not include the show theme used from the second season on - "Its a Jungle Out There"... Given that this is the theme most people are now associating with the show, its absense is deafening.
