''Legend'' is a 1984 soundtrack album for the ITV television series ''Robin of Sherwood'', by the Irish folk group Clannad. It is their eighth album. In 1985, this album won the BAFTA award for Best Original Television Music, making Clannad the first Irish band to win the award. "Robin (The Hooded Man)", the title theme from the series, was also released on a 7" single in 1984, featuring actor Michael Praed as Robin of Sherwood on the sleeve. The single was then re-released in 1986 with a newly recorded version and featuring actor Jason Connery on the sleeve. For this re-release, the B-sides include "Caisleán Óir" (as it appears on the album Macalla), which originally appeared slightly different as incidental music in the series. In addition, "Now Is Here" and "Scarlet Inside" were released as singles in their own right. In addition to the tracks on ''Legend'', which were used extensively in the series, there is also additional music composed for the show that do not appear on this album, but selected tracks have surfaced on other albums as different versions. These include a new version of "Caislean Oir" on Clannad's ''Macalla'' album (released 1986), and two live performances entitled "Robin of Sherwood Medley" and (portions of) "Dance & Teidhir Abhaile Riu" from ''Clannad: Live in Concert'' (released 2005). Another theme from the series was reworked as the song "Almost Seems (Too Late to Turn)". In a statement posted in November 2003 on their official web site, Clannad revealed that, :"there were several other pieces of music recorded for the 3rd series of ''Robin of Sherwood'' that were not included on the ''Legend'' album. Unfortunately no-one has been able to locate the master tapes of this music. The search is continuing and hopefully one day these recordings will be able to be released."() Both sets 1 and 2 of the Blu-ray release and the European DVD release of ''Robin of Sherwood'' have a "music only" track for many of the episodes. This allows listeners to hear music not included on "Legend" from the first and second series, as well as the additional music recorded after the release of Legend, to be heard on their own. ==Charts== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Legend (Robin of Sherwood soundtrack)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
