The real sign that someone has become a fanatic is that he completely loses his sense of humor about some important facet of his life. When humor goes, it means he's lost his perspective.

The closest you can get is this CD:
http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=FLCF-3947
It has 11 tracks from the 80s series. A bit over half of them have the original Japanese lyrics (the incidental music in the English dub doesn't have lyrics).
There are many other incidental music tracks, of course. The only way I can think of getting them is to capture clean segments of them as they are played across the series, then paste them together. I've started doing this but I really need a DVD source rather than VHS, so I won't be continuing work on it until Madman release the DVDs. (I have the Japanese DVDs, but the data stream is corrupt so I can't rip it to AVI for easier handling)

This is a mix of anime music, so I don't think there would be much Astroboy incidental music.

This is from the 60s series. I asked them about it a while ago. And 72 tracks? That's gotta be a sound effects CD.

Based on?

This is probably your best shot, but it's a bit unclear as to which series it's from. The cover art looks sort of 60s style.

It's an interview with Tezuka's daughter on the music of Astroboy. A fair bit of it is about her growing up and musical influences. Most of the rest seems to be about the evolution of Astroboy's music into techno.
I went on a big hunt for music from the 80s series a while ago and came up with nothing. I even contacted people who ran big anime soundtrack shops, and they'd never even heard of a release of the Astroboy 80s music.
Then I stumbled on the re-release of the vinyl mentioned earlier in this thread, thanks to a tip off from a Japanese girl in a former Astroboy forum. It was a really lucky find just to get the major tracks from the series.
