Product F.A.Q. |
Beginning your journey through Adventures in Odyssey can be a
daunting task. It all depends on whether or not you want to collect
the entire series.
Our Recommendation
If you plan on collecting the
whole series, we recommend you start at the beginning with the very
first collection,
The Adventure Begins.
This collection, along with the albums following, establishes the floor
plan of the show, introduces the town's characters, and immerses you
into what the show is all about.
Of course, many fans receive Odyssey
albums as gifts or begin collecting the series out of order. Either way
works since Adventures in Odyssey is about character development
and maintains an overall consistency. Starting chronologically or at
random is a fun and worthwhile process. The series gets better and
better as it unfolds, and the sound design and music improve with it as
well.
If you don't plan on collecting the entire
series and would like to get a feel for what the series is about, some
special collections are also available. Each collection contains
previously released episodes, so if you decide to collect the series in
chronological order later, you may discover a lot of repeats.

Adventures in Odyssey albums
have never looked the same throughout the years. By releasing albums again
with a fresh design and new artwork, fans can enjoy a more consistent look
to the series in their collections. Please refer to our detailed
Repack Schedule for more information.
As you may or may not know, albums 1-15 are currently called The Gold Audio Series. They
were put together during a time when everyone was catching
on to the Digital Age and upgrading their products with cool
titles like "digitally remastered." AIO released albums 1-15
as the Gold Audio Series when they phased out cassette releases for the show.
However, now that we've all been drifting through the
Digital Age for a while now, it's time to switch things up
even more. Focus is planning to repack
the Gold Audio Series albums with the typical arches and rays layout that
we've become so familiar with in all the repacks. The illustration will remain
the same, but the arches and layout will be changed. It's
all part of an effort to create a more consistent look for the series.
That's right. The Gold
Audio Series is way out the door. It served its purpose
during a time when companies were getting up with the
industry standard. Be watching in the days ahead for
upcoming images of these releases.
Please refer to our detailed Repack
Schedule for more information.
You can find a tentative release schedule for all upcoming
album repacks here, also linked
from our Albums page.
The Adventures in Odyssey has changed periodically since the
show began. The Odyssey team refined the existing logo for better
readability and a more vibrant look. The logo on albums 1-50 will remain
and the new logo will be featured on albums 51+. Click

Odyssey logo.
