I watched a few of these episodes on HBO and couldn't get the theme song out of my head so I bought the soundtrack. Great ambient music, especially during patriotic events (eg. 4th of July, elections, etc.). Best tracks are 1, 2, and 5.

After watching the excellent miniseries JOHN ADAMS on DVD, I knew I had to purchase the soundtrack. Rob Lane and Joseph Vitarelli have crafted a musical score for the film that packs the emotional power that was so much a part of David McCullough's book. From the patriotic "Opening Titles," a martial piece that somehow manages to convey that the drama it introduces is one of flesh and blood human beings, not wooden soldiers led by marble statues, to the soulful "Farewell to Adams," played in the film as John Adams and Thomas Jefferson lay dying on the fiftieth anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, the music proves itself as important a part of the overall quality of the film as the fine performances of the cast. Also notable are "John Says Goodbye" and "The Villa," which evoke the music of the period. I often listen to this disc in my workshop, which is perhaps the highest compliment I can pay to any piece of music.

Be warned that the mixing for the title track on the CD isn't the same as what you here in the show.
