Summary: In this special 110th edition of Sound of Play, we bring some wonderful tracks from Sega’s Sonic the Hedgehog series. Join us in the first part of our exploration of the speedy hedgehog's musical history, as we listen to Sonic's earliest jams, the collaboration with Michael Jackson, the divide between different versions of the games, and the rise of cheesy rock anthems. Due to the sheer number of games in the series, we've divided this special into two parts. Join us again for part two of the Sonic the Hedgehog special in Sound of Play 120!<br> <br> This show’s presenters are Ryan Hamann and James Farley from The Computer Game Show.<br> <br> Track listing for this show is as follows:<br> <br> 1: Green Hill Zone by Masato Nakamura - Sonic the Hedgehog, 1991<br> 2: Scrap Brain Zone by Yuzo Koshiro - Sonic the Hedgehog, 1991<br> 3: Bridge Zone by Yuzo Koshiro - Sonic the Hedgehog, 1991<br> 4: Spring Yard Zone by Masato Nakamura - Sonic the Hedgehog, 1991<br> 5: Crystal Egg Zone by Naofumi Hataya & Masafumi Ogata - Sonic the Hedgehog 2, 1992<br> 6: Emerald Hill Zone by Masato Nakamura - Sonic the Hedgehog 2, 1992<br> 7: Aquatic Ruin by Masato Nakamura - Sonic the Hedgehog 2, 1992<br> 8: D.A.
