Title: American Gladiators CD
Post by: LA the DJ on July 07, 2007, 10:39:28 PM

I tried to search for this topic, and at best got a ridiculous number of results not pertaining to this (since I'm unallowed to search for the word "CD").

I was at a pawn shop over the weekend and found an unopened copy of the American Gladiators CD. Did I stumble across something rare, or is this a common item?

I'd never even heard of this disc before, but after some thinking, I seem to think maybe it's been mentioned here before.

Pretty common, used to see it in the record store dump bins.

What, dare say, is it? (Or, what's on said CD?)

Basically it's sound clips from AG interspersed with arena sports music. (Kinda like the ESPN "Jock Rock" and "Jock Jams" discs.) And it's crap because they flow into each other, which means you're not gonna get the AG theme in the clear on it.

Furthermore, it's from late in the show's run, so even the theme song that's included is not the better-known original theme.
