I was just revisiting the game and its sequel, both of which received immense and deserved critical acclaim during their initial release, and was blown away by how fantastic and memorable the score is to these games. There was even a soundtrack CD that came with the first game.
While definitely taking a cue from Soul Bossa Nova (aka Austin Powers theme song) and James Bond films, the games featured music with delirious and wonderful 60s soundscape, while also crafting some pretty fun and bombastic orchestral numbers.
The music is so damn good, there should really be a OCR album project for this game.

The games are pretty fantastic as well, with a sense of humor of LucasArts quality and rarely seen in first person shooters.
