TP is full of great music that has many happy memories for me... I bought the cassette when the first series was on TV. But the best bit isn't on it...

Half Heart and Audrey's prayer has always been 2 of my favourites.

Can't recognize all the voices. Who's 2 secret diaries and 7 one armed men?
According to this (http://www.glastonberrygrove.net/texts/tp12days.html) it's Dana Ashbrook although the voice sounds different to me from the "drooling Leos" which is obviously Bobby.

Btw, here's the site I found this on in the first place: http://psychobabble200.blogspot.com/201 ... -z_25.html. Great, fun list.

It's amazing just how perfectly this beautiful, mysterious music (for both series and film) gels with the overall content/visuals and sticks in the mind as being practically inseparable from them -- and, as a result, the emotional and visceral reactions generated by them. In other words, I was on a big TP kick (esp. FWWM) back in last Oct-Nov, but have moved away from it in the months since, hence my lack of activity on this forum... But, merely listening to the otherworldly ambiance of Moving Through Time right now suddenly plunged me back into that seductive, haunting, scary yet beautiful/dark world of Twin Peaks. And suddenly I have an urge to watch the first part of FWWM, perhaps, or one of my favorite episodes... The world of TP is an addictive one, for sure.

I'd also have to add:

Packard's Theme/Packard's Vibration: This is just such an interesting piece, I love how it sounds at once foreboding and yet majestic. It so perfectly fits into the scenes it's used in, particularly the final episode of Josie, lending that hour an eerier, more charged mood.

Harold's Theme: Slept on this one somehow. It really is a beautiful tune, one of the most defining melodies of Peaks. Like the above one, it's both seductive and very dark; it's loneliness in musical form.
