I did one episode. The Corbomite Maneuver. That wore me out. Just the thought of Balance of Terror made me abandon the project. Honestly, what works in an episode won't necessarily stand as a listening experience. I give you props for sticking with it.

Forgive the newbie to this set here, but what does the M with a number next to it stand for in each track??

As I understand it, this was the I.D. number linking each cue in the paperwork to its position on the physical tape reel, so the cues could all be accurately found on the tapes. M stands for music, if I recall.

Ah ok thanks! The only other time I remember seeing this was with some tracks on the "TON: Ron Jones" box, but not all had them. Difference is that looks like ALL of the "TOS" have them.

Most or all of us can easily reproduce these edits in GarageBand, yet another reason why I love that we were able to get all this music out--if you're crazy enough you can literally recreate every musical moment of the series...
I tried it a time or two. "Easy" isn't exactly the word I would use. Of course that was also back when the set was a lot newer to me and I didn't know it as well. But still, not for the faint of heart.
And yes, it's terrific that ALL the music is there.

Am sad that I missed out on this one out of all the releases

Some of the tracking edits you really wouldn't want to reproduce--"Balance of Terror" is all but unlistenable in the way all the attack sequence cues are edited.
Tell me about it. Years ago I did that one myself and it was such a challenge that ended up being very frustrating in the end. You are right. It is VERY unlistenable.
You can definitely tell the difference between a tracked score that Robert Raff did and one that Jim Henrikson did. Henrikson was a much smoother music editor, that's for sure.

Doesn't Apple have this on their store?
All but two of the 15 TOS albums are available for download purchase, if I recall. It's at the iTunes store, Amazon downloads, and apparently you can hear it on Spotify. Similar situation with the Lost in Space box. But it's better with the booklets you get in the actual box sets.

I just came upon an interview with Arthur Heinemann, who wrote the Space Hippies script, in Starlog #147 (Oct 1989):
"I enjoyed the episode, too, because I wrote the lyrics for some of the songs that the hippies sang. As a matter of fact, I get a royalty check from EMI about once a year for $3.47."
That's kind of amusing. Sadly, it says he died two weeks after giving the interview.

ORDERED! (I feel faint....)
Ten years ago today!
Wow. There been a lot going on, hasn't there?
According to Last.FM both Alexander Courage and Fred Steiner both made my top 10 most played artists this past year. So apparently I'm still listening to this.
It's also one of three music sets I have on display. (Arista Star Wars and The Blue Box are the others.)
Happy anniversary!
