The Rebel Black Dot Star Trek Song of the Day


The City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra, "Theme from Star Trek: The Next Generation" (composed by Alexander Courage & Jerry Goldsmith) from The Music of Star Trek (The Last Angry Trekkie)

Captain's Log: The Next Generation's theme song was recycled, a mashup of the theme from The Original Series, composed by Courage, & the theme from The Motion Picture, composed by Goldsmith. I was familiar with the music from The Next Generation long before I ever watched The Motion Picture, so it was an odd experience realizing that the show's theme song was a hand-me-down, which is not to say that it isn't great, great music, which it is.
