Capsule Reviews -- Filmtracks receives many more albums than its
webmaster can review in full (i.e. provide a page of its own with artwork, listings, etc...). Therefore, On Cue is the place where capsule reviews of certain albums will appear. These reviews, usually a paragraph in length, contain some information about the release, a quick recommendation by the webmaster, and the usual Filmtracks one to five star rating. On some occasions, albums which receive a capsule review in On Cue will eventually be reviewed in full on a title page of its own, given time. These short reviews don't add to the total "number of CDs reviewed at Filmtracks" as listed on the home page; this number refers only to full reviews on separate pages of their own.
