Xena: Warrior Princess Vol. 6 (2001)

Reviews from

Ides of March-the vocal from the ending crucifixion scene seems to have been left out. All the music around it, however, is found in the track "Way of Pain."

God Fearing Child-the sad cue that plays when Hera is left alone to face Zeus (probably one of the most memorable scenes in the entire series). This plays again in the Season 5 finale, Motherhood.

Motherhood-all the new tracks. How they could have left this off the CD and inserted country music, and songs we've heard before on previous albums, is beyond me. Three songs come to mind-the battle music between Xena and the gods (which is actually used quite frequently), and the two spectacular pieces during and after the final battle with Athena. These two songs match the most famous track from Fallen Angel, "Go to Them," for sheer drama and emotion and their absence is definitely a drawback.

Livia-the battle music between Eve and Xena.

The Debt-this will be possibly the greatest mystery of all. In Volume Four, the beginning half of Xena's "execution" music was left in, but the second half was omitted. The track's name even made note of it-"Execution, Part 1." This battle music (with a grand flourish in the middle) is used four times in the series-whenever a dramatic fight scene in China occurs. Why it was omitted from Volume Four is a question, why it's not in Volume Six is another.

Sacrifice-I nearly forgot this one. This is music that has not been released for three seasons and best of all, it's music that hasn't been recycled (as so many other tracks have been). If there were ever an opportunity to release it, it would be now, but like the above and others (Najara's themes, Adventures in the Sin Trade, etc.) it's nowhere to be found.

The music is indeed spectacular and this CD is a recommended buy, but chances are, if you're a series veteran, you'll be missing all those tracks which were tragically omitted from this volume.

Excellent, but still missing great songs.
This is a must have for any and all Xena fans. Ides of March and Fallen Angel is some of Lo Duca's best music. However, this doesn't include many of the songs that "die hard" fans were looking for. It is missing the song that MiLila sang on Destiny and some of the indigenous religious type songs used in the episodes with Eli. It's also missing the music from "The Conqueror" with Najara. So what happened? We don't know. And they added "Joxer the Mighty" and the main theme. Why? They are on the first 2 CDs. I wonder if they are going to come out with another CD; Xena - the lost songs. In the meantime, I guess we'll just have to settle for what we have on 6 CDs and tape the rest directly from video.

A Fitting End to a ground breaking series
In the six seasons that Xena: Warrior Princess has aired it has broke many new grounds for t.v., and also produced a wonderful collection of CDs to go with each season, and now to celebrate the last, and most controversial season, we get a 2 volume cd set filled with Joseph LoDuca's great music. with tracks from many awesome episodes including "Fallen Angel" "The Ides of March" "The Norse Trilogy" and the dramatic finale "A Friend In Need". We also get a greates hits, so to speak of novalty songs from the variouse seasons. I will miss tuning in to Xena every week, but when ever I start to miss her, I can just pop in this CD and remember the greatest adventure series that ever was.
