Battle Fever J Complete Song Collection
Nippon Columbia - 1996 (COCC-13351)
Kage

Introduction

Entirely too short so I can't give this a super rating. The songs that are on this album are pretty good though. I never want to skip over any of them, which really isn't saying much when there's six songs. Anyway, if you love the series, by all means track this thing down! If you just want the songs, don't rush. They'll always be here. I'll give this 2.75 BFJ Robo's out of 5.

CD Review

01. Battle Fever J

>>Very bubbly and disco. Great way to open a show that was based on a Marvel Comic series! This song doubles as a good battle song. Since most people have heard this song, there really isn't much more to explain. I'd like to note however, this is MoJo's first appearance in any Tokusatsu soundtrack.

02. Yuusha ga Ike

>>Series ending song. Very deep and a complete opposite of the opening song. I enjoy listening to this song, never bores me. If you're looking for action, I suggest you look elsewhere. If you love very dramatic and deep songs from the 70s, have a listen to this song.

03. Battle Fever Dai Shutsugeki

>>Ichirou Mizuki jumps on the Super Sentai bandwagon! This song starts off very sly with Koorogi '73 doing their thing. The song then changes slightly when Ichirou Mizuki begins singing, then it gets up to speed completely. What a cheerful song! Not an action song, more of a victory song.

04. Battle Fever Sanka

>>You can tell from the start that this song will be upbeat. No surprises on this one. Very much like the last song in where it is very upbeat and cheery, but not an action song. Again, a victory song. I enjoy listening to this song though.

05. Ashita no Senshitachi

>>This song is a little more dark than the last two, but it turns out to a be a very victorious song of sorts. A good final episode song I think (which I think this song DID actually play for the final episode). Again, nothing wrong with this song.

06. Bonus Track: Battle Fever J (Alternate Version)

>>Not too much different from the original version. They only really added a few "Fever J!" chants to fill some gaps. Also a few new background vocals are added. You can tell which ones were.
