This isn't a "conventional" CD in the sense it is not commercially
available, but one of many stock library music CDs produced by music
publishing companies that TV and film people can drop in to their
productions without having to hire a musician/writer, (or pay
royalties to.)

The "Invasion UFO" piece of dog-sh*t was one of a lot of exploitative
videos produced in the 1980's by badly hacking together a number of
TV shows together into a loosely fitting storyline, and adding their
own titles. ("Destination Moonbase Alpha" is another that springs to
mind). Their sole intent was to cash in to the booming video rental
market at that time.

I suspect they added library music as it is royalty free, otherwise
they would have to pay out to Barry Gray, or his estate, for every
copy, and being a bunch of cheapskates, would never wish to resort to
that.

Frankly this stuff is REALLY NASTY, and not worth bothering to even
look at. There is nothing new that isn't already on the original TV
show apart from some dodgy music and cheesy chroma-key titles.

Avoid this rubbish.
