Come and listen to this amazing live version of Command & Conquer’s music

Inspired by what I'm about to share with you, I just Googled "best videogame soundtracks". I was aghast to discover that of the top three results, not one included the original Command & Conquer, or indeed any game from the C&C franchise (although one did recognise Doom 2016, and a hat-tip to GamesRadar for recognising that Final Fantasy VIII is low-key the best FF soundtrack). Hopefully I'll get the chance to write our own list and therein give the work of C&C composer Frank Klepacki its due recognition, but in case you need convincing of the importance of this, I refer you to the YouTube clip below. What you're about to see is a live performance of music from several Command & Conquer games by Klepacki and his band, the splendidly-named Tiberian Sons, at MAGFest last week (MAGFest stands for Music and Gaming Festival - a celebration of videogames, their music, and the surrounding culture). The 90-minute set includes such bangers as Act on Instinct, Warfare, No Mercy, Grinder, and all three arrangements of C&C's best-known track, Hell March. It's a great recording of what looks like a great performance.
