Ya, Richard Jacques didn't take over Sonic's tunes until 3D Blast on the Saturn. He did that and Sonic R but not CD.
Also, anyone else here wish that this CD was a 2 disc set with both the Japanese and the US soundtracks included together? Especially if the US CD had the extended tracks from that rare "Sonic Boom" album. You'd think by now that there would be some interest in Japan to hear our version.
