Doctor Who: Sound Effects CD


Following the successful re-issue of the Genesis of the Daleks
soundtrack in March 2011, AudioGo added the Doctor Who
Sound Effects CD to their Vintage Beeb range a year later.
Originally issued by BBC Records in 1978, this compilation album
was another BBC Radiophonic Workshop title: BBC Sound Effects
No. 19. Available on both vinyl LP and cassette formats, this was
 the first commercial release of Doctor Who music.
Running at 38 minutes, the updated CD version features thirty
tracks (five from Brian Hodgson, with all the others by Dick
Mills) covering eighteen serials from Seasons 11 to 15 (1974
to 1978).
Interestingly, the track-listing in the original sleeve notes
referenced some TV adventures by their working titles - The
Exxilons (became Death to the Daleks), The Destructors (The
 Sontaran Experiment), The ZygonsThe Curse of Mandragora,
 and The Enemy Within (The Invisible Enemy).
