No doubt this has been discussed before, but what the hey, I'm new. I was impressed with some of the music in Ys I & II, and I was wondering, since a little research has made clear that owning EVERY Ys music cd would cost the same as a car, what are a few of the best albums to get. I really like the orchestral, score type music, as well as songs with face-melting guitar in them. Can anyone help me decide where to start?

Hey;-)
I am right now listening to "Ys Symphonic" after a day of work and it´s just impressing...if you like orchestral ones...well here you could start...this album (for me) is nearly unbearable divine.
Oh Feena my dearest one...

I recommend Ys V Orchestra Version highly, as well as Ys Symphony '95, and Ys Healing (which you can get easily from Falcom or cocoebiz) for the Orchestra stuff.
If you like Falcom Power rock the Ys Perfect Collections (I-IV) have some awesome stuff.
Of course these are not easy to come by, but if you are patient they do pop up on ebay sometimes. I sent you a PM with more information.

Gamemusicfreak: Do you think you could also send some information to me via PM? That would be great, as I do not have an overview of all those Music- Cds...I am especially interested in how many orchestral/classical soundtracks there are, relating to Ys... Chris

Oh Feena my dearest one... Chris I'd have to agree. I really do enjoy relaxing to the Symphonic Ys albums. The music of Ys is just so damn good by itself. Having a symphony version could blow the mind if you don't prepare yourself properly. Ys was the first game where I found myself actually listening to and enjoying the music. All other games had music as just background noise, but there was a certain something special about the Ys games that made the music stand out to me. It really is one of, if not the, best soundtracks in gaming. If you can find a Symphony album, buy it up by whatever means possible. Peace Out Jest

Thanks for the info everyone. Now, how do I go about purchasing any of these cds? Obviously some are no longer produced : ebay, but can some still be ordered new from somewhere?

I'm starting to get a good idea of where to start, but i have one more question, what is the difference between Super Arrange Version, Perfect Collection and OST? Obviously OST are the tracks used in the game, but the other two . . .?

Super Arrange Versions and Perfect Collection are just different arrangements. These are not special "terms" it's just some jibberish made up by Falcom or whatever. "Super Arrange Version" sounds just plain stupid if you ask me.

Ys III Redbook is where it's at, enough said. Or the Oath in Felghana gamerip. The Felghana gamerip isn't an official album so I don't think there's any harm in sharing it. Contact me on AIM [SN: "Daemonifuge"] if you need help getting it.
