Booklet Notes
These notes were included with the Dragon Ball & Dragon Ball Z Daizenshuu compact disc release.
Son Goku, a wild boy living all by himself in the mountains, far from all human habitation, sets outs into a world completely unknown to him thanks to his encounter with Bulma — we believe that this suite was compiled with that image in mind.
The initial piece, I17, was composed as music for setting out, and was also used in the broadcast as a traveling theme, but it was not used in the scene where they actually set out in the first episode. It was also used, among other things, as a lead at the beginning or end of the show.
I20 is a piece that we imagine was included with the idea of a mighty foe lying in wait for Goku & co. It's a distinctive theme of evil, frequently used much later on in (among others) the Tenka'ichi Budōkai and Piccolo arcs.
I18, which is overflowing with a sense of speed, was in fact used in scenes such as the escape from the cave. I22 is used when they encounter an obstacle, in a large sense.
