The album remains a vastly traded favorite amongst Power Rangers fans, and was eventually "followed-up" by further albums, but these forsook the concept album route and served as basic television and movie soundtracks. It was distributed heavily in the UK, and once aired on Region Two BBC music show " Top of the Pops". The track was released commercially as the album's main single, with a music video produced consisting of footage of the first season. The UK release of the album featured a dance remix of "Power Rangers", produced by Simon Cowell, which also incorporated Manahan's exchange about the White Ranger. The audio story concludes with Pirantishead meeting his fate at the hands of the original Ultrazord, a vast contrast to his demise in "The Mutiny, Part III", at the hands of the Thunder Megazord.īecause the album had been produced prior to the introduction of the White Ranger, new audio material was recorded by actors Bob Manahan and Richard Steven Horvitz (in their roles as Zordon and Alpha 5 respectively), to introduce the theme song for Tommy's second Ranger identity, "White Ranger Tiger Power", with Zordon proclaiming to the startled Alpha that the White Ranger was "the future you are seeing." Rita's argument with her minions from the conclusion of "Doomsday, Part II" is also used prior to the third track "Lord Zedd", in which Goldar's original line after "Never mind that!" was "Rita, get us out of here before Ultrazord blasts us!" However, on the album, the line is "Never mind that! Lord Zedd, the true Emperor, has returned." The next track, "5-4-1", uses more dialogue from this episode, with Zordon sending the Rangers to help Tommy before his powers completely fail him. To add to the narrative's garbled continuity, actor Jason David Frank's lines as Tommy Oliver, which dovetail into the track "Go Green Ranger Go", are all taken from "The Green Candle, Part II".

The show's theme song "Go Go Power Rangers" has two versions: TV size (track 11) and long version (track 1). This latter "adaptation" is at best almost spoiler-free - whilst they acknowledge the arrival of Lord Zedd and the brief departure of previous villain Rita Repulsa, there is no mention of the Thunderzords, and much of Pirantishead's threat and powers are cut out because they involve freezing and controlling the Dinozords, events that prohibit their participation in the climax to the album's story. Mighty Morphin 18 starts off our count to issue 100 with a day out with the Green Ranger and a casual swim fishing for a new Command Center. All but four of the songs were loosely based around a linking story narrative, using audio samplings from Power Rangers episodes such as "Birds of a Feather" and "The Mutiny". The album stood out amongst many other soundtracks at the time for its daring concept album style. It was released on CD and cassette on Decemin the US and Decemin the UK. Hahaha, Goldar.Mighty Morphin Power Rangers the Album: A Rock Adventure (released as Power Rangers the Album: A Rock Adventure in the UK) is a soundtrack compilation of several songs performed by Ron Wasserman, under the pseudonym of "Aaron Waters" (also sometimes credited as "The Mighty RAW"), from the first two seasons of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. "Uh-oh," says Goldar, leading right back into the Shampoo song. But Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie-kicking the football down the field for the Marvel Cinematic Universe to pick up a couple of decades later-treats us to a mid-credits sequence of Goldar briefly claiming the throne of evil before Rita Repulsa and Lord Zedd walk in.
Trouble averted! And you’d think that would the end of it. Thanks to the intervention of the Power Rangers and a nerdy kid named Fred Kelman, the parents do not commit suicide after all. (Fun fact: The key subplot in the Power Rangers movie is about every adult in Angel Grove being hypnotized into mass suicide!) "Leap to our doom," chants the crowd of hypnotized parents as they walk toward a chasm. In the movie, "Trouble" plays over a scene of the kids of Angel Grove partying, secure in the knowledge that their buzzkill parents will soon be dead. With several decades of experience listening to better music-e.g., anything else-it is clearly the worst song on the album.
And the decision seems to have paid off, because Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie put a lot of weight behind "Trouble." Back in 1995, this was easily my favorite song on the album. Do you remember Shampoo? They were a part of the Riot Grrl scene of the early '90s, recording songs like "I Love Little Pussy" before they sold their souls to the fucking Power Rangers.
