A&A CD-ROM soundtrack
-
Tonight I recorded the CD-ROM Axis & Allies soundtrack on my PC to MP3s. I enjoyed hearing these musical pieces again after many years (I used to listen to them a great deal while playing the computer version). It’s available here:

Atmosphere can result from playing these tracks during board game play. Thus, I made this set for myself and thought that I should share it with other players.
There are many nice touches: the polka in the German track, the Japanese segment in the US track (providing appropriate contrast), and the instrumental variations in these and the other tracks.
Re-listening revealed that I never really got around to appreciating the second half of these tracks (I usually whipped through my turns against the AI and thus didn’t get a chance). The end credits are also worth hearing for Larry Harris’s comments.
Seeing this game again reminded me how much I enjoyed the PC version. Though it had a few glitches and a weak AI, I enjoyed it very much. I’d love to see a PC version of the Anniversary edition of A&A (which I just bought)!

This is the greatest!!!
I used to hum that American tune all the time and drive people crazy.
The Japanese one was catchy too.

Thanks, guys.
Yeah, these tunes can be catchy - be careful. I find myself humming them at random times and I can’t stop - aughhh! :-)

Um, I know given the recent circumstances it might be… quite risky, but do you mind reupping this to another site, say mediafire? Many thanks would be given.
I remember coming across this on 4chan’s /rs/ board one day, never knew it was YOUR upload.
If you can’t, let me just say, it was awesome that you did.
EDIT: I remember on Youtube someone was playing the Iron Blitz version of the game. The tunes sounded pretty boss.
