The soundtrack to A Star Is Born has been available continuously since it was first released in 1954. In 1988, a stereo CD was taken directly from the film's soundtrack and for sixteen years, this CD from Columbia Records was all that was available. In 2004, for the film's 50th anniversary, Columbia Records released a brand new digitally remastered soundtrack featuring score and songs. Some were taken from the film soundtrac
k, others from mono soundtrack masters. This 2005 Prism Leisure release, imported from Britain, is the debut digital release of the original 1954 mono LP version, which features shortened tracks, alternate intros, etc. This release is likely taken from an old LP or an old reel-to-reel/cassette tape version of the soundtrack, and it shows. The sound quality isn't as crisp, clear, and spectacular as the 2004 Columbia release. However, it's nice to have the original version that was available for over three decades finally available on CD.
Due to the fact that the original LP version of the soundtrack is about 37 minutes long, Prism fairly generously padded out this CD by adding "bonus tracks from other Judy Garland films" after the A Star Is Born tracks. These are not the film versions - instead, they're the versions Judy recorded for Decca Records, whom she was under contract to at the time. Although the film versions of all the songs are now available on various Rhino Records compilations, and all thes
e tracks are available through several Decca compilations and their 4-Disc box set featuring her entire released output for them, it's still a nice addition to the album. For those who may not have ever heard the Decca versions, it's nice to hear these versions - some of which, like Over The Rainbow, are fairly different from the film versions.
This is not meant to be a substitute for the pretty much complete 2004 Columbia expanded CD, with beautiful sound quality, and many songs in stereo, and the complete film versions of all of the tracks. (The Man That Got Away even has an expanded intro not heard in the film.) It does, however, serve as a great companion CD, and it's a must have if you're a fan of the film, of Judy Garland, or soundtracks period.

This is the 2001 10th anniversary re-issue of the Academy Award, Golden Globe, and Grammy winning soundtrack to Disney's animated film Beauty and the Beast. This soundtrack was released on December 18, 2001 to coincide with the film's reissue into large screen theaters on January 1, 2002. This reissue included a newly animated song, Human Again, which had been dropped early in the film's pre-production due to conflicts between lyrics from the song and the plot - namely a motif of the passage of time, which conflicted with such plot issues as Maurice searching for Belle in the forest. When the film was developed for the Broadway stage, the "passage of time" bit was removed from the song, allowing it to work within the show's plot. This allowed Disney to go back and animate a new scene to seamlessly integrate i
nto the film.
The Special Edition Soundtrack expands upon the original soundtrack:
-Human Again is included.
-A demo of Be Our Guest and the work tape and demo for the title track are included. Previously, these demos have only been available on the now out of print 4-CD set The Music Behind The Magic, which presents the soundtracks to The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, and Aladdin with previously unreleased masters and demos, as well as the scrapped Aladdin score. Included on the set, but not this CD are: A portion of the Belle demo, the demo of the Belle Reprise, demos of Gaston and its reprise, the unreleased Wolf Attack master, and the demo of Human Again. A shorter version of the Human Again demo is included on the DVD as a bonus feature, along with original storyboards.
-The early version of the Transformation scene music. On some early pressings of the original soundtrack album, this version was actually used in place of the music heard in the film. Later on, Disney would correct
this by using the film version. Here, it is merely presented as a stand-alone piece, without the music accompanying the Beast's transformation and the final choral reprise of the title track.

Peter Pan (1960 Television Cast Soundtrack) [VHS Rip]

Sorry about the lack of Judy lately. I still have more stuff to upload.

NBC first broadcast this classic live in 1955 and earned TV's highest ratings ever at that time. The success prompted NBC to re-stage the show again in 1956, and finally in 1960, where it was preserved on videotape "in living color." After a rebroadcast in 1973, the videotape of Peter Pan was lost - presumably forever. However, in 1989, it was rediscovered, rebroadcast on NBC, and for the first time ever, released to home video, where a whole n
ew generation of children grew up on this historic classic.
This album, the first in the all-new Classic TV Soundtrack Series, presents every song and every major orchestral track from this television classic. All songs have been digitally mastered from the 1960 telecast that everyone knows and loves. From the fun of "I'm Flying," to the tenderness of "Distant Melody," to the all-time classic "Never Never Land," to the ode to perpetual childhood, "I Won't Grow Up," these songs have become a part of our culture, and now they can be enjoyed just as you hear them when you watch the 1960 telecast of Peter Pan.
These tracks are presented in their original mono sound mix. No noise reduction has been done. This is to protect the aural and artistic integrity of the audio. These tracks have not been digitally enhanced for faux stereo. They've simply been recorded from the GoodTimes VHS issue of the telecast and edited to fade-in and face-out. The reprise of Never Never Land has been condensed by removing
the audio from the scene where Peter Pan meets adult Wendy. As this particular scene was not essential to include within the track for this audio presentation, I felt that it would slow down the flow too much. Other than this one omission, none of the other tracks were shortened or condensed in any way.

All tracks in stereo, except 3, 4, 8, 9, 13, 16, 17
Track 5 is in mono except for a brief portion taken from the stereo soundtrack album master to fill in a gap in the film's soundtrack. This gap is explained further in the notes below.
Tracks 3, 8, 13, 16, and 17 have been previously unreleased in any form outside of the film.
Tracks 4,
5, and 9 were included in stereo on the original soundtrack album in edited form. They appear here in their complete form taken directly from the film's mono soundtrack. See above for info on the exception within track 5. The stereo soundtrack album versions appear at the end of the album as bonus tracks.
This is the definitive soundtrack album to the much maligned 1974 film version of the Broadway musical smash, Mame. Taken both from the Rhino Handmade CD issue and the 2007 DVD's Dolby Digital 1.0 mono track, this soundtrack features the complete version of every song featured in the film. This includes the previously unreleased complete film versions of "Open A New Window," "The Man In The Moon," and "Mame," as well as the previously unreleased reprises of "It's Today," "We Need A Little Christmas," "Bosom Buddies," and "Open A New Window." The soundtrack album itself was produced in stereo, but the film was released with a mono soundtrack. Although Warner has tried for years to create a new stereo s
oundtrack for the film, they were unsuccessful due to the fact that Lucille Ball's vocals were often cobbled together line by line. (Jerry Herman has even said some lines even had to be spliced together note by note.) Therefore, this particular release features a mixture of stereo and mono elements. The previously unreleased film versions and reprises are all in mono, except for a very brief portion of "The Man In The Moon," where the stereo soundtrack master had to be used to replace a portion of the film's soundtrack that cuts away from Bea Arthur's performance to a scene backstage where Lucille Ball as Mame practices her only (spoken) line in the number. The edited stereo LP versions of "Open A New Window," "The Man In The Moon," and "Mame" are also included on this edition as bonus tracks. Oddly enough, the stereo LP version of "Bosom Buddies" is quite the opposite of the three aforementioned tracks - the LP version actually includes a brief portion of lines that were cut from the film, but still included
on the album. Therefore, I chose not to include the mono film version, as my only reason for including mono film tracks in the first place was because the stereo soundtrack album versions were edited.
This is not an official release. Rhino and Warner Bros. are only credited as the label as that's where the sources for this release came from. This is nothing more than a fan project to present as complete a soundtrack to this film as possible by using the DVD release's audio track to include some previously unreleased material.

This rip comes from the 2003 Rhino Handmade CD release of the Summer Stock and In The Good Old Summertime soundtracks. (They appear on the CD in that order, so if you plan to burn these onto CD, the Summer Stock tracks are sequenced before the ones from In The Good Old Summertime. Rhino Handmade releases are limited to a certain number of individually
numbered copies - in the case of Summer Stock/In The Good Old Summertime, the release is limited to 6,000 copies.
Summer Stock has previously only been available on CD in a long out-of-print edition released by CBS Special Products in 1990 which simply recorded the songs from the film's soundtrack. In the past, it was available on vinyl in abridged versions also recorded directly from the film's soundtrack. This release contains the full versions of all the songs taken from the pre-recordings, as well as score and outtakes.

From the Rhino Handmade website's entry for Summer Stock/In The Good Old Summertime:
Rhino and Turner Classic Movies Music are pleased to present two soundtracks featuring Judy Garland that have been unavailable for far too long. The recordings on this Summer Stock/In The Good Old Summertime<
/EM> original motion picture soundtrack double feature release cover the last two of the twenty-eight features and five short subjects in which Garland appeared during her 15-year tenure with Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.
In The Good Old Summertime is a musical version of M-G-M’s 1940 classic The Shop Around The Corner. Originally designed for June Allyson and Frank Sinatra, the story of two clerks in a turn-of-the-century music store was recast with Judy and Van Johnson in the roles (silent comedian Buster Keaton can also be glimpsed in a supporting part). The movie was released in 1949 and was both a critical and box office success. Along with six Garland performances, this CD includes selections by The King's Men barbershop quartet, a pair of violinist Marcia Van Dyke's numbers, and the sole surviving recording of In The Good Old Summertime's original, but unused, finale.
Beset by health problems and an ill-fated stint in Annie Get Your Gun, Judy began work in late
1949 on what would become her final Metro musical, Summer Stock. Paired with dancing great Gene Kelly, Garland plays a New England farmer who lets a troupe of performers use her barn and winds up falling in love with their director (Kelly). At Judy’s request, musical supervisor Saul Chaplin acquired the standard "Get Happy" for the film, and it became one of Garland’s greatest triumphs. Released in 1950, the film was even more popular than In The Good Old Summertime; nevertheless, Judy was released from her M-G-M contract weeks later. Along with all the songs from the film itself, this collection includes never-before-heard dance music and underscoring, and the outtake "Fall In Love" sung by Gloria De Haven and Phil Silvers.
This Turner Classic Movies Music edition of Summer Stock/In The Good Old Summertime original motion picture soundtrack double feature has been meticulously crafted to restore and expand the original 1949 and 1950 MGM albums with previously unavailable tra
cks. This disc marks the first release of every number in its entirety, as well as surviving background scoring, from Judy Garland's final, triumphant Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer achievements. All of the recordings included in this package --except two -- are in the original mono. This reissue also features liner notes from John Fricke, who coproduced and cowrote the 1997 Emmy Award-winning A&E Biography Judy: Beyond The Rainbow.

This could possibly be considered the second official soundtrack to Judy Garland's short-lived TV series, which only aired during the 1963-1964 season. (The first one was an album released in 1964 by Capitol titled Just For Openers.) While many many bootleg compilations have been released on vinyl and a few on CD, this compilation, released by Hip-O in 2002, comes directly from the T
V show's master tapes, meaning excellent sound quality. 32 tracks are here, many seeing their first ever release on CD, and many others seeing their first ever legitimate release. Judy never recorded or performed many of these songs outside the show, so this truly is a treasure trove of rare stuff. There's the show's intro, the half-time tags, dialogue between Judy and whoever she's singing with, and there are guest appearances by everyone from Liza Minelli to the now famous duet of Get Happy/Happy Days Are Here Again with Barbra Streisand to Peggy Lee, Mickey Rooney, and Lena Horne, among others. There aren't a lot of standards from her career on this particular CD, and no you won't find Over The Rainbow. (In fact, she only performed Over The Rainbow one time - on the Christmas episode. I'll be uploading a CD taken from that episode soon.) You will find plenty of classics that she never sang again, such as Moon River, Old Man River, and her emotional and powerful performance of Battle Hymn Of The Republic, s
ung in honor of her dear friend, John F. Kennedy Sr., who had just been assasinated a month prior to the taping of the episode in December of 1963. (Although that episode didn't air until January.)
Unfortunately, the show was cancelled after only 26 episodes due to poor ratings. Although critics almost universally loved Judy and generally liked the show, it recieved poor ratings due to being aired in the same timeslot as NBC's massively popular series Bonanza. Most of the show's episodes have since been released on DVD. Sid Luft himself released a CD of duets from the show in 1998 with duet partners such as Barbra Streisand, Ethel Merman, Lena Horne, Bobby Darin, Tony Bennett, Frank Sinatra, and Dean Martin, among others. Hip-O released this compilation in 2002, and starting in 2005, Savoy Jazz began releasing additional compilations of songs from the show, such as That Old Feeling: Classic Ballads From The Judy Garland Show, Great Day: Rare Recordings From The Judy Garland Show, a
nd the upcoming Greatest Hits Live.

If you've downloaded my previous version, you definitely need to download this one. I renamed the files so that you can simply overwrite your old vinyl-ripped MP3s with these. Like with the previous vinyl rips I uploaded, these are perfectly crystal clear and clean, but without that webstream-type thing going on. This rip either comes from the 2004 Rhino Handmade CD, which was released in an individually numbered limited edition of 2,500 copies, or the 2005 Collector's Choice Release, which is not limited. Either way, it's from a CD. Both CDs make the fact that none of Lucy's songs were single takes. In fact, pretty much each line is from a different take than the last. IN FACT, some LINES are even taken from multiple takes. When Rhino remastered this soundtrack for CD release, they chose not to run any kind of equalizer o
n Lucy's vocals to make them sound more even, as if they possibly came from a single take, or at least that practically every single line wasn't from a different take from the last. However, it's all this effort that keeps Lucy from sounding completely horrendous on this soundtrack. Angela Lansbury would have been far better, but after listening to this soundtrack quite a few times lately, I find that Lucy should have been dubbed, but that she wasn't horrible. Frankly, Jane Connell as Agnes Gooch is far more shrill and annoying than Lucy, if you ask me. :P I think this is worth a download if only for the curiosity factor...that's the reason I downloaded it the first time.
Notes about the CD version from the Rhino Handmade website's Mame entry:
Lucille Ball was chosen for the lead in the screen version of this blockbuster Broadway musical for the same reason she might be chose
n today: Her name is beloved the world over. Interestingly, as Lucy Ricardo in I Love Lucy, she often made comic sport of her less-than-sensational singing. But irony took a sad twist as controversy and Hollywood politics ultimately led many critics of the time to skewer Mame, ostensibly because Ball was out of her league vocally. Thirty years later, however, the film and music stand on their many merits.
Mame began as a best-selling book and was soon adapted as a dramatic play by producer Robert Fryer. Starring Rosalind Russell, Auntie Mame opened in New York in 1956 to rave reviews and big box office. Warner then brought it to the screen, casting Russell along with Jan Handzlik and Peggy Cass. Auntie Mame earned six Academy Award® nominations, including Best Picture.
Fryer then got the itch to make a stage musical of the hot property, hiring the writing team of Betty Comden and Adolph Green as librettists for the up-and-coming composer Jerry Herman (Hello,
Dolly!). Angela Lansbury easily landed the role of Mame, eventually earning a Tony for it. The show itself was the toast of Broadway.
In the wake of The Sound Of Music, musical films abounded in Hollywood. And when it was decided that Mame would sing and dance on the silver screen, the producers reached for a household word. Everyone loved Lucille Ball in 1970, and Warner was eager to bring her big-screen success to match her popularity on television.
Ball was playing a part 20 years her junior, but she danced well and worked extremely hard. Beatrice Arthur, Kirby Furlong, Bruce Davison, and Robert Preston costarred. Ball and Arthur were a well-matched team, adding unintentional humor with their low-register harmonizing during Herman's charming duet "Bosom Buddies." Preston turned in a moving ballad with "Loving You," which was added to the film's score.
Mame managed a decent box-office performance in 1974, even breaking records at Radio City Music Hall. Poison pe
n reviews aside, Ball's essential charms seduced viewers, who enjoyed the film all the same. And thanks to heavy reruns of I Love Lucy, the funny lady's fan base has only grown over the years, offering a chance to appreciate Mame outside its jaundiced show-biz circumstances.
This Warner Bros./Rhino Handmade release is the first CD appearance of the original Mame soundtrack. The higher fidelity format reveals overdubbing techniques used to capture more pitch-perfect performances by Lucille Ball. Of unique interest to soundtrack enthusiasts, these anomalies have not been EQ-ed out during remastering. We've left the work as originally assembled, while delivering the best possible sound quality.

This compilation of tracks from Judy's mo
vie career was released by Rhino in 1998 and at the time of its release included many tracks that had never been available on CD, and a few that had never even had a legitimate release, such as The Texas Tornado from her first film, 1936's The Pigskin Parade. The CD opens with The Texas Tornado and closes with the title track from her final film, 1963's I Could Go On Singing and includes tracks from The Wizard of Oz, Meet Me In St. Louis, A Star Is Born, and Gay Purr-ee, among others. Many of these soundtracks have seen release on CD, many from Rhino, since this CD's release but it's still the best source for several songs such as Look For The Silver Lining from Till The Clouds Roll By and the film version of Dear Mr. Gable/You Made Me Love You.

This was taken from the DVD version available in Mill Creek Entertainment's 50 Family Movies set. This is not on the level of Rhino's soundtrack releases of classic MGM musicals, but the quality is still fairly good. There is some kind of weird shaky volume effect on
the last two tracks. Unfortunately, none of my other copies of this have better audio, and I haven't been able to access Warner Bros.' official DVD release or get a download of the Soundtrack Factory release. Someday once I'm on Netflix, I'll try to get it and rip a better soundtrack. Until then, this will have to do.

ABOUT THE DISC & RECORDINGS (Source)
Judy's final film performance features one of her best on-screen portrayals, playing an American concert performer very much like her real self. Her old friends and songwriters E.Y "Yip" Harburg and Harold Arlen wrote the title song.
A note about "It Never Was You": The version heard on this album is actually an alternate take of the performance as recorded live on the set with David Lee at the piano. A studio version recorded for the film, with orchestrations by Mort Lindsey, was released in 2006 on the Capitol CD "The Essential Judy Garland".
-----------------------------
This rip comes from the 2002 Capitol Special Products CD release of her 1960 studio album That's Entertainment! and the soundtrack to her final film performance, I Could Go On Singing. Two other two-fers released in 2002 include Miss Show Business (1955)/Judy (1956) and Judy In Love (1958)/Alone (1957).
1959's The Letter remained her only studio album not to see the light of day on CD, save for two tracks on the 2002 Capitol Records compilation Classic Judy Garland: The Capitol Years 1955-1965, until DRG Records and EMI released it, digitally remastered with bonus tracks.

There IS a Judy connection here. She was originally set to star in Jane Powell's role in the film. However, she was fired from the film before she shot any scenes or recorded any scenes.R>
This particular soundtrack is ripped from two different cheap DVD releases. The entire thing comes from the version of the movie included in Mill Creek Entertainment's 50 Family Movies DVD set, with the exception of about the first five seconds of the first track, which required audio from the Diamond Entertainment release. Although Mill Creek's version's sound mix was far less shrill, the MGM logo, and therefore the music from it, was cut off in this version, but it's present in the Diamond Entertainment release, which has a more shrill and nasty sound mix. The mix of those first few seconds from one release into the rest of the audio from the other release is seamless, fortunately.

The soundtrack to A Star Is Born has been available continuously since it was first released in 1954. In 1988, a stereo CD was taken directly from the film's soundtrack and for sixteen years, this CD from Columbia Records was all that was available. In 2004, for the film's 50th anniversary, Columbia Records released a brand new digitally remastered soundtrack featuring score and songs. Some were taken from the film soundtrac
k, others from mono soundtrack masters. This 2005 Prism Leisure release, imported from Britain, is the debut digital release of the original 1954 mono LP version, which features shortened tracks, alternate intros, etc. This release is likely taken from an old LP or an old reel-to-reel/cassette tape version of the soundtrack, and it shows. The sound quality isn't as crisp, clear, and spectacular as the 2004 Columbia release. However, it's nice to have the original version that was available for over three decades finally available on CD.
Due to the fact that the original LP version of the soundtrack is about 37 minutes long, Prism fairly generously padded out this CD by adding "bonus tracks from other Judy Garland films" after the A Star Is Born tracks. These are not the film versions - instead, they're the versions Judy recorded for Decca Records, whom she was under contract to at the time. Although the film versions of all the songs are now available on various Rhino Records compilations, and all thes
e tracks are available through several Decca compilations and their 4-Disc box set featuring her entire released output for them, it's still a nice addition to the album. For those who may not have ever heard the Decca versions, it's nice to hear these versions - some of which, like Over The Rainbow, are fairly different from the film versions.
This is not meant to be a substitute for the pretty much complete 2004 Columbia expanded CD, with beautiful sound quality, and many songs in stereo, and the complete film versions of all of the tracks. (The Man That Got Away even has an expanded intro not heard in the film.) It does, however, serve as a great companion CD, and it's a must have if you're a fan of the film, of Judy Garland, or soundtracks period.

This is the 2001 10th anniversary re-issue of the Academy Award, Golden Globe, and Grammy winning soundtrack to Disney's animated film Beauty and the Beast. This soundtrack was released on December 18, 2001 to coincide with the film's reissue into large screen theaters on January 1, 2002. This reissue included a newly animated song, Human Again, which had been dropped early in the film's pre-production due to conflicts between lyrics from the song and the plot - namely a motif of the passage of time, which conflicted with such plot issues as Maurice searching for Belle in the forest. When the film was developed for the Broadway stage, the "passage of time" bit was removed from the song, allowing it to work within the show's plot. This allowed Disney to go back and animate a new scene to seamlessly integrate i
nto the film.
The Special Edition Soundtrack expands upon the original soundtrack:
-Human Again is included.
-A demo of Be Our Guest and the work tape and demo for the title track are included. Previously, these demos have only been available on the now out of print 4-CD set The Music Behind The Magic, which presents the soundtracks to The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, and Aladdin with previously unreleased masters and demos, as well as the scrapped Aladdin score. Included on the set, but not this CD are: A portion of the Belle demo, the demo of the Belle Reprise, demos of Gaston and its reprise, the unreleased Wolf Attack master, and the demo of Human Again. A shorter version of the Human Again demo is included on the DVD as a bonus feature, along with original storyboards.
-The early version of the Transformation scene music. On some early pressings of the original soundtrack album, this version was actually used in place of the music heard in the film. Later on, Disney would correct
this by using the film version. Here, it is merely presented as a stand-alone piece, without the music accompanying the Beast's transformation and the final choral reprise of the title track.

Sorry about the lack of Judy lately. I still have more stuff to upload.

NBC first broadcast this classic live in 1955 and earned TV's highest ratings ever at that time. The success prompted NBC to re-stage the show again in 1956, and finally in 1960, where it was preserved on videotape "in living color." After a rebroadcast in 1973, the videotape of Peter Pan was lost - presumably forever. However, in 1989, it was rediscovered, rebroadcast on NBC, and for the first time ever, released to home video, where a whole n
ew generation of children grew up on this historic classic.
This album, the first in the all-new Classic TV Soundtrack Series, presents every song and every major orchestral track from this television classic. All songs have been digitally mastered from the 1960 telecast that everyone knows and loves. From the fun of "I'm Flying," to the tenderness of "Distant Melody," to the all-time classic "Never Never Land," to the ode to perpetual childhood, "I Won't Grow Up," these songs have become a part of our culture, and now they can be enjoyed just as you hear them when you watch the 1960 telecast of Peter Pan.
These tracks are presented in their original mono sound mix. No noise reduction has been done. This is to protect the aural and artistic integrity of the audio. These tracks have not been digitally enhanced for faux stereo. They've simply been recorded from the GoodTimes VHS issue of the telecast and edited to fade-in and face-out. The reprise of Never Never Land has been condensed by removing
the audio from the scene where Peter Pan meets adult Wendy. As this particular scene was not essential to include within the track for this audio presentation, I felt that it would slow down the flow too much. Other than this one omission, none of the other tracks were shortened or condensed in any way.

All tracks in stereo, except 3, 4, 8, 9, 13, 16, 17
Track 5 is in mono except for a brief portion taken from the stereo soundtrack album master to fill in a gap in the film's soundtrack. This gap is explained further in the notes below.
Tracks 3, 8, 13, 16, and 17 have been previously unreleased in any form outside of the film.
Tracks 4,
5, and 9 were included in stereo on the original soundtrack album in edited form. They appear here in their complete form taken directly from the film's mono soundtrack. See above for info on the exception within track 5. The stereo soundtrack album versions appear at the end of the album as bonus tracks.
This is the definitive soundtrack album to the much maligned 1974 film version of the Broadway musical smash, Mame. Taken both from the Rhino Handmade CD issue and the 2007 DVD's Dolby Digital 1.0 mono track, this soundtrack features the complete version of every song featured in the film. This includes the previously unreleased complete film versions of "Open A New Window," "The Man In The Moon," and "Mame," as well as the previously unreleased reprises of "It's Today," "We Need A Little Christmas," "Bosom Buddies," and "Open A New Window." The soundtrack album itself was produced in stereo, but the film was released with a mono soundtrack. Although Warner has tried for years to create a new stereo s
oundtrack for the film, they were unsuccessful due to the fact that Lucille Ball's vocals were often cobbled together line by line. (Jerry Herman has even said some lines even had to be spliced together note by note.) Therefore, this particular release features a mixture of stereo and mono elements. The previously unreleased film versions and reprises are all in mono, except for a very brief portion of "The Man In The Moon," where the stereo soundtrack master had to be used to replace a portion of the film's soundtrack that cuts away from Bea Arthur's performance to a scene backstage where Lucille Ball as Mame practices her only (spoken) line in the number. The edited stereo LP versions of "Open A New Window," "The Man In The Moon," and "Mame" are also included on this edition as bonus tracks. Oddly enough, the stereo LP version of "Bosom Buddies" is quite the opposite of the three aforementioned tracks - the LP version actually includes a brief portion of lines that were cut from the film, but still included
on the album. Therefore, I chose not to include the mono film version, as my only reason for including mono film tracks in the first place was because the stereo soundtrack album versions were edited.
This is not an official release. Rhino and Warner Bros. are only credited as the label as that's where the sources for this release came from. This is nothing more than a fan project to present as complete a soundtrack to this film as possible by using the DVD release's audio track to include some previously unreleased material.

This rip comes from the 2003 Rhino Handmade CD release of the Summer Stock and In The Good Old Summertime soundtracks. (They appear on the CD in that order, so if you plan to burn these onto CD, the Summer Stock tracks are sequenced before the ones from In The Good Old Summertime. Rhino Handmade releases are limited to a certain number of individually
numbered copies - in the case of Summer Stock/In The Good Old Summertime, the release is limited to 6,000 copies.
Summer Stock has previously only been available on CD in a long out-of-print edition released by CBS Special Products in 1990 which simply recorded the songs from the film's soundtrack. In the past, it was available on vinyl in abridged versions also recorded directly from the film's soundtrack. This release contains the full versions of all the songs taken from the pre-recordings, as well as score and outtakes.
---------------
From the Rhino Handmade website's entry for Summer Stock/In The Good Old Summertime:
Rhino and Turner Classic Movies Music are pleased to present two soundtracks featuring Judy Garland that have been unavailable for far too long. The recordings on this Summer Stock/In The Good Old Summertime<
/EM> original motion picture soundtrack double feature release cover the last two of the twenty-eight features and five short subjects in which Garland appeared during her 15-year tenure with Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.
In The Good Old Summertime is a musical version of M-G-M’s 1940 classic The Shop Around The Corner. Originally designed for June Allyson and Frank Sinatra, the story of two clerks in a turn-of-the-century music store was recast with Judy and Van Johnson in the roles (silent comedian Buster Keaton can also be glimpsed in a supporting part). The movie was released in 1949 and was both a critical and box office success. Along with six Garland performances, this CD includes selections by The King's Men barbershop quartet, a pair of violinist Marcia Van Dyke's numbers, and the sole surviving recording of In The Good Old Summertime's original, but unused, finale.
Beset by health problems and an ill-fated stint in Annie Get Your Gun, Judy began work in late
1949 on what would become her final Metro musical, Summer Stock. Paired with dancing great Gene Kelly, Garland plays a New England farmer who lets a troupe of performers use her barn and winds up falling in love with their director (Kelly). At Judy’s request, musical supervisor Saul Chaplin acquired the standard "Get Happy" for the film, and it became one of Garland’s greatest triumphs. Released in 1950, the film was even more popular than In The Good Old Summertime; nevertheless, Judy was released from her M-G-M contract weeks later. Along with all the songs from the film itself, this collection includes never-before-heard dance music and underscoring, and the outtake "Fall In Love" sung by Gloria De Haven and Phil Silvers.
This Turner Classic Movies Music edition of Summer Stock/In The Good Old Summertime original motion picture soundtrack double feature has been meticulously crafted to restore and expand the original 1949 and 1950 MGM albums with previously unavailable tra
cks. This disc marks the first release of every number in its entirety, as well as surviving background scoring, from Judy Garland's final, triumphant Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer achievements. All of the recordings included in this package --except two -- are in the original mono. This reissue also features liner notes from John Fricke, who coproduced and cowrote the 1997 Emmy Award-winning A&E Biography Judy: Beyond The Rainbow.

This could possibly be considered the second official soundtrack to Judy Garland's short-lived TV series, which only aired during the 1963-1964 season. (The first one was an album released in 1964 by Capitol titled Just For Openers.) While many many bootleg compilations have been released on vinyl and a few on CD, this compilation, released by Hip-O in 2002, comes directly from the T
V show's master tapes, meaning excellent sound quality. 32 tracks are here, many seeing their first ever release on CD, and many others seeing their first ever legitimate release. Judy never recorded or performed many of these songs outside the show, so this truly is a treasure trove of rare stuff. There's the show's intro, the half-time tags, dialogue between Judy and whoever she's singing with, and there are guest appearances by everyone from Liza Minelli to the now famous duet of Get Happy/Happy Days Are Here Again with Barbra Streisand to Peggy Lee, Mickey Rooney, and Lena Horne, among others. There aren't a lot of standards from her career on this particular CD, and no you won't find Over The Rainbow. (In fact, she only performed Over The Rainbow one time - on the Christmas episode. I'll be uploading a CD taken from that episode soon.) You will find plenty of classics that she never sang again, such as Moon River, Old Man River, and her emotional and powerful performance of Battle Hymn Of The Republic, s
ung in honor of her dear friend, John F. Kennedy Sr., who had just been assasinated a month prior to the taping of the episode in December of 1963. (Although that episode didn't air until January.)
Unfortunately, the show was cancelled after only 26 episodes due to poor ratings. Although critics almost universally loved Judy and generally liked the show, it recieved poor ratings due to being aired in the same timeslot as NBC's massively popular series Bonanza. Most of the show's episodes have since been released on DVD. Sid Luft himself released a CD of duets from the show in 1998 with duet partners such as Barbra Streisand, Ethel Merman, Lena Horne, Bobby Darin, Tony Bennett, Frank Sinatra, and Dean Martin, among others. Hip-O released this compilation in 2002, and starting in 2005, Savoy Jazz began releasing additional compilations of songs from the show, such as That Old Feeling: Classic Ballads From The Judy Garland Show, Great Day: Rare Recordings From The Judy Garland Show, a
nd the upcoming Greatest Hits Live.

If you've downloaded my previous version, you definitely need to download this one. I renamed the files so that you can simply overwrite your old vinyl-ripped MP3s with these. Like with the previous vinyl rips I uploaded, these are perfectly crystal clear and clean, but without that webstream-type thing going on. This rip either comes from the 2004 Rhino Handmade CD, which was released in an individually numbered limited edition of 2,500 copies, or the 2005 Collector's Choice Release, which is not limited. Either way, it's from a CD. Both CDs make the fact that none of Lucy's songs were single takes. In fact, pretty much each line is from a different take than the last. IN FACT, some LINES are even taken from multiple takes. When Rhino remastered this soundtrack for CD release, they chose not to run any kind of equalizer o
n Lucy's vocals to make them sound more even, as if they possibly came from a single take, or at least that practically every single line wasn't from a different take from the last. However, it's all this effort that keeps Lucy from sounding completely horrendous on this soundtrack. Angela Lansbury would have been far better, but after listening to this soundtrack quite a few times lately, I find that Lucy should have been dubbed, but that she wasn't horrible. Frankly, Jane Connell as Agnes Gooch is far more shrill and annoying than Lucy, if you ask me. :P I think this is worth a download if only for the curiosity factor...that's the reason I downloaded it the first time.
Notes about the CD version from the Rhino Handmade website's Mame entry:
Lucille Ball was chosen for the lead in the screen version of this blockbuster Broadway musical for the same reason she might be chose
n today: Her name is beloved the world over. Interestingly, as Lucy Ricardo in I Love Lucy, she often made comic sport of her less-than-sensational singing. But irony took a sad twist as controversy and Hollywood politics ultimately led many critics of the time to skewer Mame, ostensibly because Ball was out of her league vocally. Thirty years later, however, the film and music stand on their many merits.
Mame began as a best-selling book and was soon adapted as a dramatic play by producer Robert Fryer. Starring Rosalind Russell, Auntie Mame opened in New York in 1956 to rave reviews and big box office. Warner then brought it to the screen, casting Russell along with Jan Handzlik and Peggy Cass. Auntie Mame earned six Academy Award® nominations, including Best Picture.
Fryer then got the itch to make a stage musical of the hot property, hiring the writing team of Betty Comden and Adolph Green as librettists for the up-and-coming composer Jerry Herman (Hello,
Dolly!). Angela Lansbury easily landed the role of Mame, eventually earning a Tony for it. The show itself was the toast of Broadway.
In the wake of The Sound Of Music, musical films abounded in Hollywood. And when it was decided that Mame would sing and dance on the silver screen, the producers reached for a household word. Everyone loved Lucille Ball in 1970, and Warner was eager to bring her big-screen success to match her popularity on television.
Ball was playing a part 20 years her junior, but she danced well and worked extremely hard. Beatrice Arthur, Kirby Furlong, Bruce Davison, and Robert Preston costarred. Ball and Arthur were a well-matched team, adding unintentional humor with their low-register harmonizing during Herman's charming duet "Bosom Buddies." Preston turned in a moving ballad with "Loving You," which was added to the film's score.
Mame managed a decent box-office performance in 1974, even breaking records at Radio City Music Hall. Poison pe
n reviews aside, Ball's essential charms seduced viewers, who enjoyed the film all the same. And thanks to heavy reruns of I Love Lucy, the funny lady's fan base has only grown over the years, offering a chance to appreciate Mame outside its jaundiced show-biz circumstances.
This Warner Bros./Rhino Handmade release is the first CD appearance of the original Mame soundtrack. The higher fidelity format reveals overdubbing techniques used to capture more pitch-perfect performances by Lucille Ball. Of unique interest to soundtrack enthusiasts, these anomalies have not been EQ-ed out during remastering. We've left the work as originally assembled, while delivering the best possible sound quality.

This compilation of tracks from Judy's mo
vie career was released by Rhino in 1998 and at the time of its release included many tracks that had never been available on CD, and a few that had never even had a legitimate release, such as The Texas Tornado from her first film, 1936's The Pigskin Parade. The CD opens with The Texas Tornado and closes with the title track from her final film, 1963's I Could Go On Singing and includes tracks from The Wizard of Oz, Meet Me In St. Louis, A Star Is Born, and Gay Purr-ee, among others. Many of these soundtracks have seen release on CD, many from Rhino, since this CD's release but it's still the best source for several songs such as Look For The Silver Lining from Till The Clouds Roll By and the film version of Dear Mr. Gable/You Made Me Love You.

This was taken from the DVD version available in Mill Creek Entertainment's 50 Family Movies set. This is not on the level of Rhino's soundtrack releases of classic MGM musicals, but the quality is still fairly good. There is some kind of weird shaky volume effect on
the last two tracks. Unfortunately, none of my other copies of this have better audio, and I haven't been able to access Warner Bros.' official DVD release or get a download of the Soundtrack Factory release. Someday once I'm on Netflix, I'll try to get it and rip a better soundtrack. Until then, this will have to do.

Maybe once Rhino sells all their copies, Collector's Choice Music will do what they did with Mame when Rhino sold all their Handmade copies of it and reissue it through their label.

ABOUT THE DISC & RECORDINGS (Source)
Judy's final film performance features one of her best on-screen portrayals, playing an American concert performer very much like her real self. Her old friends and songwriters E.Y "Yip" Harburg and Harold Arlen wrote the title song.
A note about "It Never Was You": The version heard on this album is actually an alternate take of the performance as recorded live on the set with David Lee at the piano. A studio version recorded for the film, with orchestrations by Mort Lindsey, was released in 2006 on the Capitol CD "The Essential Judy Garland".
-----------------------------
This rip comes from the 2002 Capitol Special Products CD release of her 1960 studio album That's Entertainment! and the soundtrack to her final film performance, I Could Go On Singing. Two other two-fers released in 2002 include Miss Show Business (1955)/Judy (1956) and Judy In Love (1958)/Alone (1957).
1959's The Letter remained her only studio album not to see the light of day on CD, save for two tracks on the 2002 Capitol Records compilation Classic Judy Garland: The Capitol Years 1955-1965, until DRG Records and EMI released it, digitally remastered with bonus tracks.

There IS a Judy connection here. She was originally set to star in Jane Powell's role in the film. However, she was fired from the film before she shot any scenes or recorded any scenes.R>
This particular soundtrack is ripped from two different cheap DVD releases. The entire thing comes from the version of the movie included in Mill Creek Entertainment's 50 Family Movies DVD set, with the exception of about the first five seconds of the first track, which required audio from the Diamond Entertainment release. Although Mill Creek's version's sound mix was far less shrill, the MGM logo, and therefore the music from it, was cut off in this version, but it's present in the Diamond Entertainment release, which has a more shrill and nasty sound mix. The mix of those first few seconds from one release into the rest of the audio from the other release is seamless, fortunately.

This is the 2001 10th anniversary re-issue of the Academy Award, Golden Globe, and Grammy winning soundtrack to Disney's animated film Beauty and the Beast. This soundtrack was released on December 18, 2001 to coincide with the film's reissue into large screen theaters on January 1, 2002. This reissue included a newly animated song, Human Again, which had been dropped early in the film's pre-production due to conflicts between lyrics from the song and the plot - namely a motif of the passage of time, which conflicted with such plot issues as Maurice searching for Belle in the forest. When the film was developed for the Broadway stage, the "passage of time" bit was removed from the song, allowing it to work within the show's plot. This allowed Disney to go back and animate a new scene to seamlessly integrate i
nto the film.
The Special Edition Soundtrack expands upon the original soundtrack:
-Human Again is included.
-A demo of Be Our Guest and the work tape and demo for the title track are included. Previously, these demos have only been available on the now out of print 4-CD set The Music Behind The Magic, which presents the soundtracks to The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, and Aladdin with previously unreleased masters and demos, as well as the scrapped Aladdin score. Included on the set, but not this CD are: A portion of the Belle demo, the demo of the Belle Reprise, demos of Gaston and its reprise, the unreleased Wolf Attack master, and the demo of Human Again. A shorter version of the Human Again demo is included on the DVD as a bonus feature, along with original storyboards.
-The early version of the Transformation scene music. On some early pressings of the original soundtrack album, this version was actually used in place of the music heard in the film. Later on, Disney would correct
this by using the film version. Here, it is merely presented as a stand-alone piece, without the music accompanying the Beast's transformation and the final choral reprise of the title track.

NBC first broadcast this classic live in 1955 and earned TV's highest ratings ever at that time. The success prompted NBC to re-stage the show again in 1956, and finally in 1960, where it was preserved on videotape "in living color." After a rebroadcast in 1973, the videotape of Peter Pan was lost - presumably forever. However, in 1989, it was rediscovered, rebroadcast on NBC, and for the first time ever, released to home video, where a whole n
ew generation of children grew up on this historic classic.
This album, the first in the all-new Classic TV Soundtrack Series, presents every song and every major orchestral track from this television classic. All songs have been digitally mastered from the 1960 telecast that everyone knows and loves. From the fun of "I'm Flying," to the tenderness of "Distant Melody," to the all-time classic "Never Never Land," to the ode to perpetual childhood, "I Won't Grow Up," these songs have become a part of our culture, and now they can be enjoyed just as you hear them when you watch the 1960 telecast of Peter Pan.
These tracks are presented in their original mono sound mix. No noise reduction has been done. This is to protect the aural and artistic integrity of the audio. These tracks have not been digitally enhanced for faux stereo. They've simply been recorded from the GoodTimes VHS issue of the telecast and edited to fade-in and face-out. The reprise of Never Never Land has been condensed by removing
the audio from the scene where Peter Pan meets adult Wendy. As this particular scene was not essential to include within the track for this audio presentation, I felt that it would slow down the flow too much. Other than this one omission, none of the other tracks were shortened or condensed in any way.

All tracks in stereo, except 3, 4, 8, 9, 13, 16, 17
Track 5 is in mono except for a brief portion taken from the stereo soundtrack album master to fill in a gap in the film's soundtrack. This gap is explained further in the notes below.
Tracks 3, 8, 13, 16, and 17 have been previously unreleased in any form outside of the film.
Tracks 4,
5, and 9 were included in stereo on the original soundtrack album in edited form. They appear here in their complete form taken directly from the film's mono soundtrack. See above for info on the exception within track 5. The stereo soundtrack album versions appear at the end of the album as bonus tracks.
This is the definitive soundtrack album to the much maligned 1974 film version of the Broadway musical smash, Mame. Taken both from the Rhino Handmade CD issue and the 2007 DVD's Dolby Digital 1.0 mono track, this soundtrack features the complete version of every song featured in the film. This includes the previously unreleased complete film versions of "Open A New Window," "The Man In The Moon," and "Mame," as well as the previously unreleased reprises of "It's Today," "We Need A Little Christmas," "Bosom Buddies," and "Open A New Window." The soundtrack album itself was produced in stereo, but the film was released with a mono soundtrack. Although Warner has tried for years to create a new stereo s
oundtrack for the film, they were unsuccessful due to the fact that Lucille Ball's vocals were often cobbled together line by line. (Jerry Herman has even said some lines even had to be spliced together note by note.) Therefore, this particular release features a mixture of stereo and mono elements. The previously unreleased film versions and reprises are all in mono, except for a very brief portion of "The Man In The Moon," where the stereo soundtrack master had to be used to replace a portion of the film's soundtrack that cuts away from Bea Arthur's performance to a scene backstage where Lucille Ball as Mame practices her only (spoken) line in the number. The edited stereo LP versions of "Open A New Window," "The Man In The Moon," and "Mame" are also included on this edition as bonus tracks. Oddly enough, the stereo LP version of "Bosom Buddies" is quite the opposite of the three aforementioned tracks - the LP version actually includes a brief portion of lines that were cut from the film, but still included
on the album. Therefore, I chose not to include the mono film version, as my only reason for including mono film tracks in the first place was because the stereo soundtrack album versions were edited.
This is not an official release. Rhino and Warner Bros. are only credited as the label as that's where the sources for this release came from. This is nothing more than a fan project to present as complete a soundtrack to this film as possible by using the DVD release's audio track to include some previously unreleased material.

(They appear on the CD in that order, so if you plan to burn these onto CD, the Summer Stock tracks are sequenced before the ones from In The Good Old Summertime. Rhino Handmade releases are limited to a certain number of individually
numbered copies - in the case of Summer Stock/In The Good Old Summertime, the release is limited to 6,000 copies.
Summer Stock has previously only been available on CD in a long out-of-print edition released by CBS Special Products in 1990 which simply recorded the songs from the film's soundtrack. In the past, it was available on vinyl in abridged versions also recorded directly from the film's soundtrack. This release contains the full versions of all the songs taken from the pre-recordings, as well as score and outtakes.

From the Rhino Handmade website's entry for Summer Stock/In The Good Old Summertime:
Rhino and Turner Classic Movies Music are pleased to present two soundtracks featuring Judy Garland that have been unavailable for far too long. The recordings on this Summer Stock/In The Good Old Summertime<
/EM> original motion picture soundtrack double feature release cover the last two of the twenty-eight features and five short subjects in which Garland appeared during her 15-year tenure with Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.
In The Good Old Summertime is a musical version of M-G-M’s 1940 classic The Shop Around The Corner. Originally designed for June Allyson and Frank Sinatra, the story of two clerks in a turn-of-the-century music store was recast with Judy and Van Johnson in the roles (silent comedian Buster Keaton can also be glimpsed in a supporting part). The movie was released in 1949 and was both a critical and box office success. Along with six Garland performances, this CD includes selections by The King's Men barbershop quartet, a pair of violinist Marcia Van Dyke's numbers, and the sole surviving recording of In The Good Old Summertime's original, but unused, finale.
Beset by health problems and an ill-fated stint in Annie Get Your Gun, Judy began work in late
1949 on what would become her final Metro musical, Summer Stock. Paired with dancing great Gene Kelly, Garland plays a New England farmer who lets a troupe of performers use her barn and winds up falling in love with their director (Kelly). At Judy’s request, musical supervisor Saul Chaplin acquired the standard "Get Happy" for the film, and it became one of Garland’s greatest triumphs. Released in 1950, the film was even more popular than In The Good Old Summertime; nevertheless, Judy was released from her M-G-M contract weeks later. Along with all the songs from the film itself, this collection includes never-before-heard dance music and underscoring, and the outtake "Fall In Love" sung by Gloria De Haven and Phil Silvers.
This Turner Classic Movies Music edition of Summer Stock/In The Good Old Summertime original motion picture soundtrack double feature has been meticulously crafted to restore and expand the original 1949 and 1950 MGM albums with previously unavailable tra
cks. This disc marks the first release of every number in its entirety, as well as surviving background scoring, from Judy Garland's final, triumphant Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer achievements. All of the recordings included in this package --except two -- are in the original mono. This reissue also features liner notes from John Fricke, who coproduced and cowrote the 1997 Emmy Award-winning A&E Biography Judy: Beyond The Rainbow.

This could possibly be considered the second official soundtrack to Judy Garland's short-lived TV series, which only aired during the 1963-1964 season. (The first one was an album released in 1964 by Capitol titled Just For Openers.) While many many bootleg compilations have been released on vinyl and a few on CD, this compilation, released by Hip-O in 2002, comes directly from the T
V show's master tapes, meaning excellent sound quality. 32 tracks are here, many seeing their first ever release on CD, and many others seeing their first ever legitimate release. Judy never recorded or performed many of these songs outside the show, so this truly is a treasure trove of rare stuff. There's the show's intro, the half-time tags, dialogue between Judy and whoever she's singing with, and there are guest appearances by everyone from Liza Minelli to the now famous duet of Get Happy/Happy Days Are Here Again with Barbra Streisand to Peggy Lee, Mickey Rooney, and Lena Horne, among others. There aren't a lot of standards from her career on this particular CD, and no you won't find Over The Rainbow. (In fact, she only performed Over The Rainbow one time - on the Christmas episode. I'll be uploading a CD taken from that episode soon.) You will find plenty of classics that she never sang again, such as Moon River, Old Man River, and her emotional and powerful performance of Battle Hymn Of The Republic, s
ung in honor of her dear friend, John F. Kennedy Sr., who had just been assasinated a month prior to the taping of the episode in December of 1963. (Although that episode didn't air until January.)
Unfortunately, the show was cancelled after only 26 episodes due to poor ratings. Although critics almost universally loved Judy and generally liked the show, it recieved poor ratings due to being aired in the same timeslot as NBC's massively popular series Bonanza. Most of the show's episodes have since been released on DVD. Sid Luft himself released a CD of duets from the show in 1998 with duet partners such as Barbra Streisand, Ethel Merman, Lena Horne, Bobby Darin, Tony Bennett, Frank Sinatra, and Dean Martin, among others. Hip-O released this compilation in 2002, and starting in 2005, Savoy Jazz began releasing additional compilations of songs from the show, such as That Old Feeling: Classic Ballads From The Judy Garland Show, Great Day: Rare Recordings From The Judy Garland Show, a
nd the upcoming Greatest Hits Live.

If you've downloaded my previous version, you definitely need to download this one. I renamed the files so that you can simply overwrite your old vinyl-ripped MP3s with these. Like with the previous vinyl rips I uploaded, these are perfectly crystal clear and clean, but without that webstream-type thing going on. This rip either comes from the 2004 Rhino Handmade CD, which was released in an individually numbered limited edition of 2,500 copies, or the 2005 Collector's Choice Release, which is not limited. Either way, it's from a CD. Both CDs make the fact that none of Lucy's songs were single takes. In fact, pretty much each line is from a different take than the last. IN FACT, some LINES are even taken from multiple takes. When Rhino remastered this soundtrack for CD release, they chose not to run any kind of equalizer o
n Lucy's vocals to make them sound more even, as if they possibly came from a single take, or at least that practically every single line wasn't from a different take from the last. However, it's all this effort that keeps Lucy from sounding completely horrendous on this soundtrack. Angela Lansbury would have been far better, but after listening to this soundtrack quite a few times lately, I find that Lucy should have been dubbed, but that she wasn't horrible. Frankly, Jane Connell as Agnes Gooch is far more shrill and annoying than Lucy, if you ask me. :P I think this is worth a download if only for the curiosity factor...that's the reason I downloaded it the first time.
Notes about the CD version from the Rhino Handmade website's Mame entry:
Lucille Ball was chosen for the lead in the screen version of this blockbuster Broadway musical for the same reason she might be chose
n today: Her name is beloved the world over. Interestingly, as Lucy Ricardo in I Love Lucy, she often made comic sport of her less-than-sensational singing. But irony took a sad twist as controversy and Hollywood politics ultimately led many critics of the time to skewer Mame, ostensibly because Ball was out of her league vocally. Thirty years later, however, the film and music stand on their many merits.
Mame began as a best-selling book and was soon adapted as a dramatic play by producer Robert Fryer. Starring Rosalind Russell, Auntie Mame opened in New York in 1956 to rave reviews and big box office. Warner then brought it to the screen, casting Russell along with Jan Handzlik and Peggy Cass. Auntie Mame earned six Academy Award® nominations, including Best Picture.
Fryer then got the itch to make a stage musical of the hot property, hiring the writing team of Betty Comden and Adolph Green as librettists for the up-and-coming composer Jerry Herman (Hello,
Dolly!). Angela Lansbury easily landed the role of Mame, eventually earning a Tony for it. The show itself was the toast of Broadway.
In the wake of The Sound Of Music, musical films abounded in Hollywood. And when it was decided that Mame would sing and dance on the silver screen, the producers reached for a household word. Everyone loved Lucille Ball in 1970, and Warner was eager to bring her big-screen success to match her popularity on television.
Ball was playing a part 20 years her junior, but she danced well and worked extremely hard. Beatrice Arthur, Kirby Furlong, Bruce Davison, and Robert Preston costarred. Ball and Arthur were a well-matched team, adding unintentional humor with their low-register harmonizing during Herman's charming duet "Bosom Buddies." Preston turned in a moving ballad with "Loving You," which was added to the film's score.
Mame managed a decent box-office performance in 1974, even breaking records at Radio City Music Hall. Poison pe
n reviews aside, Ball's essential charms seduced viewers, who enjoyed the film all the same. And thanks to heavy reruns of I Love Lucy, the funny lady's fan base has only grown over the years, offering a chance to appreciate Mame outside its jaundiced show-biz circumstances.
This Warner Bros./Rhino Handmade release is the first CD appearance of the original Mame soundtrack. The higher fidelity format reveals overdubbing techniques used to capture more pitch-perfect performances by Lucille Ball. Of unique interest to soundtrack enthusiasts, these anomalies have not been EQ-ed out during remastering. We've left the work as originally assembled, while delivering the best possible sound quality.

vie career was released by Rhino in 1998 and at the time of its release included many tracks that had never been available on CD, and a few that had never even had a legitimate release, such as The Texas Tornado from her first film, 1936's The Pigskin Parade. The CD opens with The Texas Tornado and closes with the title track from her final film, 1963's I Could Go On Singing and includes tracks from The Wizard of Oz, Meet Me In St. Louis, A Star Is Born, and Gay Purr-ee, among others. Many of these soundtracks have seen release on CD, many from Rhino, since this CD's release but it's still the best source for several songs such as Look For The Silver Lining from Till The Clouds Roll By and the film version of Dear Mr. Gable/You Made Me Love You.

Unfortunately, none of my other copies of this have better audio, and I haven't been able to access Warner Bros.' official DVD release or get a download of the Soundtrack Factory release. Someday once I'm on Netflix, I'll try to get it and rip a better soundtrack. Until then, this will have to do.

ABOUT THE DISC & RECORDINGS (Source)
Judy's final film performance features one of her best on-screen portrayals, playing an American concert performer very much like her real self. Her old friends and songwriters E.Y "Yip" Harburg and Harold Arlen wrote the title song.
A note about "It Never Was You": The version heard on this album is actually an alternate take of the performance as recorded live on the set with David Lee at the piano. A studio version recorded for the film, with orchestrations by Mort Lindsey, was released in 2006 on the Capitol CD "The Essential Judy Garland".
-----------------------------
This rip comes from the 2002 Capitol Special Products CD release of her 1960 studio album That's Entertainment! and the soundtrack to her final film performance, I Could Go On Singing. Two other two-fers released in 2002 include Miss Show Business (1955)/Judy (1956) and Judy In Love (1958)/Alone (1957).
1959's The Letter remained her only studio album not to see the light of day on CD, save for two tracks on the 2002 Capitol Records compilation Classic Judy Garland: The Capitol Years 1955-1965, until DRG Records and EMI released it, digitally remastered with bonus tracks.

There IS a Judy connection here. She was originally set to star in Jane Powell's role in the film. However, she was fired from the film before she shot any scenes or recorded any scenes.R>
This particular soundtrack is ripped from two different cheap DVD releases. The entire thing comes from the version of the movie included in Mill Creek Entertainment's 50 Family Movies DVD set, with the exception of about the first five seconds of the first track, which required audio from the Diamond Entertainment release. Although Mill Creek's version's sound mix was far less shrill, the MGM logo, and therefore the music from it, was cut off in this version, but it's present in the Diamond Entertainment release, which has a more shrill and nasty sound mix. The mix of those first few seconds from one release into the rest of the audio from the other release is seamless, fortunately.
Once In A Lullaby
Sorry about the lack of Judy lately. I still have more stuff to upload. I just haven't been uploading much of anything because when I started this blog, I uploaded for about a week straight, and I got burned out. But there WILL be new Judy uploads soon, I promise! For now, though, please enjoy this download of music from a television classic that's currently out of print in any format. *Which SHOULD be a crime, BTW.*

NBC first broadcast this classic live in 1955 and earned TV's highest ratings ever at that time. The success prompted NBC to re-stage the show again in 1956, and finally in 1960, where it was preserved on videotape "in living color." After a rebroadcast in 1973, the videotape of Peter Pan was lost - presumably forever. However, in 1989, it was rediscovered, rebroadcast on NBC, and for the first time ever, released to home video, where a whole n
ew generation of children grew up on this historic classic.
This album, the first in the all-new Classic TV Soundtrack Series, presents every song and every major orchestral track from this television classic. All songs have been digitally mastered from the 1960 telecast that everyone knows and loves. From the fun of "I'm Flying," to the tenderness of "Distant Melody," to the all-time classic "Never Never Land," to the ode to perpetual childhood, "I Won't Grow Up," these songs have become a part of our culture, and now they can be enjoyed just as you hear them when you watch the 1960 telecast of Peter Pan.
These tracks are presented in their original mono sound mix. No noise reduction has been done. This is to protect the aural and artistic integrity of the audio. These tracks have not been digitally enhanced for faux stereo. They've simply been recorded from the GoodTimes VHS issue of the telecast and edited to fade-in and face-out. The reprise of Never Never Land has been condensed by removing
the audio from the scene where Peter Pan meets adult Wendy. As this particular scene was not essential to include within the track for this audio presentation, I felt that it would slow down the flow too much. Other than this one omission, none of the other tracks were shortened or condensed in any way.

All tracks in stereo, except 3, 4, 8, 9, 13, 16, 17
Track 5 is in mono except for a brief portion taken from the stereo soundtrack album master to fill in a gap in the film's soundtrack. This gap is explained further in the notes below.
Tracks 3, 8, 13, 16, and 17 have been previously unreleased in any form outside of the film.
Tracks 4,
5, and 9 were included in stereo on the original soundtrack album in edited form. They appear here in their complete form taken directly from the film's mono soundtrack. See above for info on the exception within track 5. The stereo soundtrack album versions appear at the end of the album as bonus tracks.
This is the definitive soundtrack album to the much maligned 1974 film version of the Broadway musical smash, Mame. Taken both from the Rhino Handmade CD issue and the 2007 DVD's Dolby Digital 1.0 mono track, this soundtrack features the complete version of every song featured in the film. This includes the previously unreleased complete film versions of "Open A New Window," "The Man In The Moon," and "Mame," as well as the previously unreleased reprises of "It's Today," "We Need A Little Christmas," "Bosom Buddies," and "Open A New Window." The soundtrack album itself was produced in stereo, but the film was released with a mono soundtrack. Although Warner has tried for years to create a new stereo s
oundtrack for the film, they were unsuccessful due to the fact that Lucille Ball's vocals were often cobbled together line by line. (Jerry Herman has even said some lines even had to be spliced together note by note.) Therefore, this particular release features a mixture of stereo and mono elements. The previously unreleased film versions and reprises are all in mono, except for a very brief portion of "The Man In The Moon," where the stereo soundtrack master had to be used to replace a portion of the film's soundtrack that cuts away from Bea Arthur's performance to a scene backstage where Lucille Ball as Mame practices her only (spoken) line in the number. The edited stereo LP versions of "Open A New Window," "The Man In The Moon," and "Mame" are also included on this edition as bonus tracks. Oddly enough, the stereo LP version of "Bosom Buddies" is quite the opposite of the three aforementioned tracks - the LP version actually includes a brief portion of lines that were cut from the film, but still included
on the album. Therefore, I chose not to include the mono film version, as my only reason for including mono film tracks in the first place was because the stereo soundtrack album versions were edited.
This is not an official release. Rhino and Warner Bros. are only credited as the label as that's where the sources for this release came from. This is nothing more than a fan project to present as complete a soundtrack to this film as possible by using the DVD release's audio track to include some previously unreleased material.

This rip comes from the 2003 Rhino Handmade CD release of the Summer Stock and In The Good Old Summertime soundtracks. (They appear on the CD in that order, so if you plan to burn these onto CD, the Summer Stock tracks are sequenced before the ones from In The Good Old Summertime. Rhino Handmade releases are limited to a certain number of individually
numbered copies - in the case of Summer Stock/In The Good Old Summertime, the release is limited to 6,000 copies.
Summer Stock has previously only been available on CD in a long out-of-print edition released by CBS Special Products in 1990 which simply recorded the songs from the film's soundtrack. In the past, it was available on vinyl in abridged versions also recorded directly from the film's soundtrack. This release contains the full versions of all the songs taken from the pre-recordings, as well as score and outtakes.
---------------
From the Rhino Handmade website's entry for Summer Stock/In The Good Old Summertime:
Rhino and Turner Classic Movies Music are pleased to present two soundtracks featuring Judy Garland that have been unavailable for far too long. The recordings on this Summer Stock/In The Good Old Summertime<
/EM> original motion picture soundtrack double feature release cover the last two of the twenty-eight features and five short subjects in which Garland appeared during her 15-year tenure with Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.
In The Good Old Summertime is a musical version of M-G-M’s 1940 classic The Shop Around The Corner. Originally designed for June Allyson and Frank Sinatra, the story of two clerks in a turn-of-the-century music store was recast with Judy and Van Johnson in the roles (silent comedian Buster Keaton can also be glimpsed in a supporting part). The movie was released in 1949 and was both a critical and box office success. Along with six Garland performances, this CD includes selections by The King's Men barbershop quartet, a pair of violinist Marcia Van Dyke's numbers, and the sole surviving recording of In The Good Old Summertime's original, but unused, finale.
Beset by health problems and an ill-fated stint in Annie Get Your Gun, Judy began work in late
1949 on what would become her final Metro musical, Summer Stock. Paired with dancing great Gene Kelly, Garland plays a New England farmer who lets a troupe of performers use her barn and winds up falling in love with their director (Kelly). At Judy’s request, musical supervisor Saul Chaplin acquired the standard "Get Happy" for the film, and it became one of Garland’s greatest triumphs. Released in 1950, the film was even more popular than In The Good Old Summertime; nevertheless, Judy was released from her M-G-M contract weeks later. Along with all the songs from the film itself, this collection includes never-before-heard dance music and underscoring, and the outtake "Fall In Love" sung by Gloria De Haven and Phil Silvers.
This Turner Classic Movies Music edition of Summer Stock/In The Good Old Summertime original motion picture soundtrack double feature has been meticulously crafted to restore and expand the original 1949 and 1950 MGM albums with previously unavailable tra
cks. This disc marks the first release of every number in its entirety, as well as surviving background scoring, from Judy Garland's final, triumphant Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer achievements. All of the recordings included in this package --except two -- are in the original mono. This reissue also features liner notes from John Fricke, who coproduced and cowrote the 1997 Emmy Award-winning A&E Biography Judy: Beyond The Rainbow.

This could possibly be considered the second official soundtrack to Judy Garland's short-lived TV series, which only aired during the 1963-1964 season. (The first one was an album released in 1964 by Capitol titled Just For Openers.) While many many bootleg compilations have been released on vinyl and a few on CD, this compilation, released by Hip-O in 2002, comes directly from the T
V show's master tapes, meaning excellent sound quality. 32 tracks are here, many seeing their first ever release on CD, and many others seeing their first ever legitimate release. Judy never recorded or performed many of these songs outside the show, so this truly is a treasure trove of rare stuff. There's the show's intro, the half-time tags, dialogue between Judy and whoever she's singing with, and there are guest appearances by everyone from Liza Minelli to the now famous duet of Get Happy/Happy Days Are Here Again with Barbra Streisand to Peggy Lee, Mickey Rooney, and Lena Horne, among others. There aren't a lot of standards from her career on this particular CD, and no you won't find Over The Rainbow. (In fact, she only performed Over The Rainbow one time - on the Christmas episode. I'll be uploading a CD taken from that episode soon.) You will find plenty of classics that she never sang again, such as Moon River, Old Man River, and her emotional and powerful performance of Battle Hymn Of The Republic, s
ung in honor of her dear friend, John F. Kennedy Sr., who had just been assasinated a month prior to the taping of the episode in December of 1963. (Although that episode didn't air until January.)
Unfortunately, the show was cancelled after only 26 episodes due to poor ratings. Although critics almost universally loved Judy and generally liked the show, it recieved poor ratings due to being aired in the same timeslot as NBC's massively popular series Bonanza. Most of the show's episodes have since been released on DVD. Sid Luft himself released a CD of duets from the show in 1998 with duet partners such as Barbra Streisand, Ethel Merman, Lena Horne, Bobby Darin, Tony Bennett, Frank Sinatra, and Dean Martin, among others. Hip-O released this compilation in 2002, and starting in 2005, Savoy Jazz began releasing additional compilations of songs from the show, such as That Old Feeling: Classic Ballads From The Judy Garland Show, Great Day: Rare Recordings From The Judy Garland Show, a
nd the upcoming Greatest Hits Live.

If you've downloaded my previous version, you definitely need to download this one. I renamed the files so that you can simply overwrite your old vinyl-ripped MP3s with these. Like with the previous vinyl rips I uploaded, these are perfectly crystal clear and clean, but without that webstream-type thing going on. This rip either comes from the 2004 Rhino Handmade CD, which was released in an individually numbered limited edition of 2,500 copies, or the 2005 Collector's Choice Release, which is not limited. Either way, it's from a CD. Both CDs make the fact that none of Lucy's songs were single takes. In fact, pretty much each line is from a different take than the last. IN FACT, some LINES are even taken from multiple takes. When Rhino remastered this soundtrack for CD release, they chose not to run any kind of equalizer o
n Lucy's vocals to make them sound more even, as if they possibly came from a single take, or at least that practically every single line wasn't from a different take from the last. However, it's all this effort that keeps Lucy from sounding completely horrendous on this soundtrack. Angela Lansbury would have been far better, but after listening to this soundtrack quite a few times lately, I find that Lucy should have been dubbed, but that she wasn't horrible. Frankly, Jane Connell as Agnes Gooch is far more shrill and annoying than Lucy, if you ask me. :P I think this is worth a download if only for the curiosity factor...that's the reason I downloaded it the first time.
Notes about the CD version from the Rhino Handmade website's Mame entry:
Lucille Ball was chosen for the lead in the screen version of this blockbuster Broadway musical for the same reason she might be chose
n today: Her name is beloved the world over. Interestingly, as Lucy Ricardo in I Love Lucy, she often made comic sport of her less-than-sensational singing. But irony took a sad twist as controversy and Hollywood politics ultimately led many critics of the time to skewer Mame, ostensibly because Ball was out of her league vocally. Thirty years later, however, the film and music stand on their many merits.
Mame began as a best-selling book and was soon adapted as a dramatic play by producer Robert Fryer. Starring Rosalind Russell, Auntie Mame opened in New York in 1956 to rave reviews and big box office. Warner then brought it to the screen, casting Russell along with Jan Handzlik and Peggy Cass. Auntie Mame earned six Academy Award® nominations, including Best Picture.
Fryer then got the itch to make a stage musical of the hot property, hiring the writing team of Betty Comden and Adolph Green as librettists for the up-and-coming composer Jerry Herman (Hello,
Dolly!). Angela Lansbury easily landed the role of Mame, eventually earning a Tony for it. The show itself was the toast of Broadway.
In the wake of The Sound Of Music, musical films abounded in Hollywood. And when it was decided that Mame would sing and dance on the silver screen, the producers reached for a household word. Everyone loved Lucille Ball in 1970, and Warner was eager to bring her big-screen success to match her popularity on television.
Ball was playing a part 20 years her junior, but she danced well and worked extremely hard. Beatrice Arthur, Kirby Furlong, Bruce Davison, and Robert Preston costarred. Ball and Arthur were a well-matched team, adding unintentional humor with their low-register harmonizing during Herman's charming duet "Bosom Buddies." Preston turned in a moving ballad with "Loving You," which was added to the film's score.
Mame managed a decent box-office performance in 1974, even breaking records at Radio City Music Hall. Poison pe
n reviews aside, Ball's essential charms seduced viewers, who enjoyed the film all the same. And thanks to heavy reruns of I Love Lucy, the funny lady's fan base has only grown over the years, offering a chance to appreciate Mame outside its jaundiced show-biz circumstances.
This Warner Bros./Rhino Handmade release is the first CD appearance of the original Mame soundtrack. The higher fidelity format reveals overdubbing techniques used to capture more pitch-perfect performances by Lucille Ball. Of unique interest to soundtrack enthusiasts, these anomalies have not been EQ-ed out during remastering. We've left the work as originally assembled, while delivering the best possible sound quality.

This compilation of tracks from Judy's mo
vie career was released by Rhino in 1998 and at the time of its release included many tracks that had never been available on CD, and a few that had never even had a legitimate release, such as The Texas Tornado from her first film, 1936's The Pigskin Parade. The CD opens with The Texas Tornado and closes with the title track from her final film, 1963's I Could Go On Singing and includes tracks from The Wizard of Oz, Meet Me In St. Louis, A Star Is Born, and Gay Purr-ee, among others. Many of these soundtracks have seen release on CD, many from Rhino, since this CD's release but it's still the best source for several songs such as Look For The Silver Lining from Till The Clouds Roll By and the film version of Dear Mr. Gable/You Made Me Love You.

This was taken from the DVD version available in Mill Creek Entertainment's 50 Family Movies set. This is not on the level of Rhino's soundtrack releases of classic MGM musicals, but the quality is still fairly good. There is some kind of weird shaky volume effect on
the last two tracks. Unfortunately, none of my other copies of this have better audio, and I haven't been able to access Warner Bros.' official DVD release or get a download of the Soundtrack Factory release. Someday once I'm on Netflix, I'll try to get it and rip a better soundtrack. Until then, this will have to do.

Maybe once Rhino sells all their copies, Collector's Choice Music will do what they did with Mame when Rhino sold all their Handmade copies of it and reissue it through their label.

ABOUT THE DISC & RECORDINGS (Source)
Judy's final film performance features one of her best on-screen portrayals, playing an American concert performer very much like her real self. Her old friends and songwriters E.Y "Yip" Harburg and Harold Arlen wrote the title song.
A note about "It Never Was You": The version heard on this album is actually an alternate take of the performance as recorded live on the set with David Lee at the piano. A studio version recorded for the film, with orchestrations by Mort Lindsey, was released in 2006 on the Capitol CD "The Essential Judy Garland".
-----------------------------
This rip comes from the 2002 Capitol Special Products CD release of her 1960 studio album That's Entertainment! and the soundtrack to her final film performance, I Could Go On Singing. Two other two-fers released in 2002 include Miss Show Business (1955)/Judy (1956) and Judy In Love (1958)/Alone (1957).
1959's The Letter remained her only studio album not to see the light of day on CD, save for two tracks on the 2002 Capitol Records compilation Classic Judy Garland: The Capitol Years 1955-1965, until DRG Records and EMI released it, digitally remastered with bonus tracks.

There IS a Judy connection here. She was originally set to star in Jane Powell's role in the film. However, she was fired from the film before she shot any scenes or recorded any scenes.R>
This particular soundtrack is ripped from two different cheap DVD releases. The entire thing comes from the version of the movie included in Mill Creek Entertainment's 50 Family Movies DVD set, with the exception of about the first five seconds of the first track, which required audio from the Diamond Entertainment release. Although Mill Creek's version's sound mix was far less shrill, the MGM logo, and therefore the music from it, was cut off in this version, but it's present in the Diamond Entertainment release, which has a more shrill and nasty sound mix. The mix of those first few seconds from one release into the rest of the audio from the other release is seamless, fortunately.
Once In A Lullaby
Yes, it's YET another upload of this. Except for reuploads of this edition, this is the last one. And I hear Jerry Herman wanted Judy when he was creating the stage show, so this counts, right? :P Anyhoo, I'm proud of this one, so I hope all you Mame film fans enjoy it!

See above for info on the exception within track 5. The stereo soundtrack album versions appear at the end of the album as bonus tracks.
This is the definitive soundtrack album to the much maligned 1974 film version of the Broadway musical smash, Mame. Taken both from the Rhino Handmade CD issue and the 2007 DVD's Dolby Digital 1.0 mono track, this soundtrack features the complete version of every song featured in the film. This includes the previously unreleased complete film versions of "Open A New Window," "The Man In The Moon," and "Mame," as well as the previously unreleased reprises of "It's Today," "We Need A Little Christmas," "Bosom Buddies," and "Open A New Window." The soundtrack album itself was produced in stereo, but the film was released with a mono soundtrack. Although Warner has tried for years to create a new stereo s
oundtrack for the film, they were unsuccessful due to the fact that Lucille Ball's vocals were often cobbled together line by line. (Jerry Herman has even said some lines even had to be spliced together note by note.) Therefore, this particular release features a mixture of stereo and mono elements. The previously unreleased film versions and reprises are all in mono, except for a very brief portion of "The Man In The Moon," where the stereo soundtrack master had to be used to replace a portion of the film's soundtrack that cuts away from Bea Arthur's performance to a scene backstage where Lucille Ball as Mame practices her only (spoken) line in the number. The edited stereo LP versions of "Open A New Window," "The Man In The Moon," and "Mame" are also included on this edition as bonus tracks. Oddly enough, the stereo LP version of "Bosom Buddies" is quite the opposite of the three aforementioned tracks - the LP version actually includes a brief portion of lines that were cut from the film, but still included
on the album. Therefore, I chose not to include the mono film version, as my only reason for including mono film tracks in the first place was because the stereo soundtrack album versions were edited.
This is not an official release. Rhino and Warner Bros. are only credited as the label as that's where the sources for this release came from. This is nothing more than a fan project to present as complete a soundtrack to this film as possible by using the DVD release's audio track to include some previously unreleased material.

This rip comes from the 2003 Rhino Handmade CD release of the Summer Stock and In The Good Old Summertime soundtracks. (They appear on the CD in that order, so if you plan to burn these onto CD, the Summer Stock tracks are sequenced before the ones from In The Good Old Summertime. Rhino Handmade releases are limited to a certain number of individually
numbered copies - in the case of Summer Stock/In The Good Old Summertime, the release is limited to 6,000 copies.
Summer Stock has previously only been available on CD in a long out-of-print edition released by CBS Special Products in 1990 which simply recorded the songs from the film's soundtrack. In the past, it was available on vinyl in abridged versions also recorded directly from the film's soundtrack. This release contains the full versions of all the songs taken from the pre-recordings, as well as score and outtakes.
---------------
From the Rhino Handmade website's entry for Summer Stock/In The Good Old Summertime:
Rhino and Turner Classic Movies Music are pleased to present two soundtracks featuring Judy Garland that have been unavailable for far too long. The recordings on this Summer Stock/In The Good Old Summertime<
/EM> original motion picture soundtrack double feature release cover the last two of the twenty-eight features and five short subjects in which Garland appeared during her 15-year tenure with Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.
In The Good Old Summertime is a musical version of M-G-M’s 1940 classic The Shop Around The Corner. Originally designed for June Allyson and Frank Sinatra, the story of two clerks in a turn-of-the-century music store was recast with Judy and Van Johnson in the roles (silent comedian Buster Keaton can also be glimpsed in a supporting part). The movie was released in 1949 and was both a critical and box office success. Along with six Garland performances, this CD includes selections by The King's Men barbershop quartet, a pair of violinist Marcia Van Dyke's numbers, and the sole surviving recording of In The Good Old Summertime's original, but unused, finale.
Beset by health problems and an ill-fated stint in Annie Get Your Gun, Judy began work in late
1949 on what would become her final Metro musical, Summer Stock. Paired with dancing great Gene Kelly, Garland plays a New England farmer who lets a troupe of performers use her barn and winds up falling in love with their director (Kelly). At Judy’s request, musical supervisor Saul Chaplin acquired the standard "Get Happy" for the film, and it became one of Garland’s greatest triumphs. Released in 1950, the film was even more popular than In The Good Old Summertime; nevertheless, Judy was released from her M-G-M contract weeks later. Along with all the songs from the film itself, this collection includes never-before-heard dance music and underscoring, and the outtake "Fall In Love" sung by Gloria De Haven and Phil Silvers.
This Turner Classic Movies Music edition of Summer Stock/In The Good Old Summertime original motion picture soundtrack double feature has been meticulously crafted to restore and expand the original 1949 and 1950 MGM albums with previously unavailable tra
cks. This disc marks the first release of every number in its entirety, as well as surviving background scoring, from Judy Garland's final, triumphant Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer achievements. All of the recordings included in this package --except two -- are in the original mono. This reissue also features liner notes from John Fricke, who coproduced and cowrote the 1997 Emmy Award-winning A&E Biography Judy: Beyond The Rainbow.

This rip comes from the 2003 Rhino Handmade CD release of the Summer Stock and In The Good Old Summertime soundtracks. (They appear on the CD in that order, so if you plan to burn these onto CD, the Summer Stock tracks are sequenced before the ones from In The Good Old Summertime. Rhino Handmade releases are limited to a certain number of individually numbered copies - in the case of Summer Stock/In The Good Old Summertime, the release is limited to 6,000 copies.
This CD marks the premiere digital release of In The Good Old Summertime, which has previously only been available on vinyl in versions recorded directly from the film itself. This version utilizes all surviving pre-recordings and includes all of the songs and all surviving score, plus the only surviving recording of the unused or
iginal finale.

From the Rhino Handmade website's entry for Summer Stock/In The Good Old Summertime:
Rhino and Turner Classic Movies Music are pleased to present two soundtracks featuring Judy Garland that have been unavailable for far too long. The recordings on this Summer Stock/In The Good Old Summertime original motion picture soundtrack double feature release cover the last two of the twenty-eight features and five short subjects in which Garland appeared during her 15-year tenure with Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.
In The Good Old Summertime is a musical version of M-G-M’s 1940 classic The Shop Around The Corner. Originally designed for June Allyson and Frank Sinatra, the story of two clerks in a turn-of-the-century music store was recast with Judy and Van Johnson in the rol
es (silent comedian Buster Keaton can also be glimpsed in a supporting part). The movie was released in 1949 and was both a critical and box office success. Along with six Garland performances, this CD includes selections by The King's Men barbershop quartet, a pair of violinist Marcia Van Dyke's numbers, and the sole surviving recording of In The Good Old Summertime's original, but unused, finale.
Beset by health problems and an ill-fated stint in Annie Get Your Gun, Judy began work in late 1949 on what would become her final Metro musical, Summer Stock. Paired with dancing great Gene Kelly, Garland plays a New England farmer who lets a troupe of performers use her barn and winds up falling in love with their director (Kelly). At Judy’s request, musical supervisor Saul Chaplin acquired the standard "Get Happy" for the film, and it became one of Garland’s greatest triumphs. Released in 1950, the film was even more popular than In The Good Old Summertime; nevertheless
, Judy was released from her M-G-M contract weeks later. Along with all the songs from the film itself, this collection includes never-before-heard dance music and underscoring, and the outtake "Fall In Love" sung by Gloria De Haven and Phil Silvers.
This Turner Classic Movies Music edition of Summer Stock/In The Good Old Summertime original motion picture soundtrack double feature has been meticulously crafted to restore and expand the original 1949 and 1950 MGM albums with previously unavailable tracks. This disc marks the first release of every number in its entirety, as well as surviving background scoring, from Judy Garland's final, triumphant Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer achievements. All of the recordings included in this package --except two -- are in the original mono. This reissue also features liner notes from John Fricke, who coproduced and cowrote the 1997 Emmy Award-winning A&E Biography Judy: Beyond The Rainbow.

This could possibly be considered the second official soundtrack to Judy Garland's short-lived TV series, which only aired during the 1963-1964 season. (The first one was an album released in 1964 by Capitol titled Just For Openers.) While many many bootleg compilations have been released on vinyl and a few on CD, this compilation, released by Hip-O in 2002, comes directly from the T
V show's master tapes, meaning excellent sound quality. 32 tracks are here, many seeing their first ever release on CD, and many others seeing their first ever legitimate release. Judy never recorded or performed many of these songs outside the show, so this truly is a treasure trove of rare stuff. There's the show's intro, the half-time tags, dialogue between Judy and whoever she's singing with, and there are guest appearances by everyone from Liza Minelli to the now famous duet of Get Happy/Happy Days Are Here Again with Barbra Streisand to Peggy Lee, Mickey Rooney, and Lena Horne, among others. There aren't a lot of standards from her career on this particular CD, and no you won't find Over The Rainbow. (In fact, she only performed Over The Rainbow one time - on the Christmas episode. I'll be uploading a CD taken from that episode soon.) You will find plenty of classics that she never sang again, such as Moon River, Old Man River, and her emotional and powerful performance of Battle Hymn Of The Republic, s
ung in honor of her dear friend, John F. Kennedy Sr., who had just been assasinated a month prior to the taping of the episode in December of 1963. (Although that episode didn't air until January.)
Unfortunately, the show was cancelled after only 26 episodes due to poor ratings. Although critics almost universally loved Judy and generally liked the show, it recieved poor ratings due to being aired in the same timeslot as NBC's massively popular series Bonanza. Most of the show's episodes have since been released on DVD. Sid Luft himself released a CD of duets from the show in 1998 with duet partners such as Barbra Streisand, Ethel Merman, Lena Horne, Bobby Darin, Tony Bennett, Frank Sinatra, and Dean Martin, among others. Hip-O released this compilation in 2002, and starting in 2005, Savoy Jazz began releasing additional compilations of songs from the show, such as That Old Feeling: Classic Ballads From The Judy Garland Show, Great Day: Rare Recordings From The Judy Garland Show, a
nd the upcoming Greatest Hits Live.

If you've downloaded my previous version, you definitely need to download this one. I renamed the files so that you can simply overwrite your old vinyl-ripped MP3s with these. Like with the previous vinyl rips I uploaded, these are perfectly crystal clear and clean, but without that webstream-type thing going on. This rip either comes from the 2004 Rhino Handmade CD, which was released in an individually numbered limited edition of 2,500 copies, or the 2005 Collector's Choice Release, which is not limited. Either way, it's from a CD. Both CDs make the fact that none of Lucy's songs were single takes. In fact, pretty much each line is from a different take than the last. IN FACT, some LINES are even taken from multiple takes. When Rhino remastered this soundtrack for CD release, they chose not to run any kind of equalizer o
n Lucy's vocals to make them sound more even, as if they possibly came from a single take, or at least that practically every single line wasn't from a different take from the last. However, it's all this effort that keeps Lucy from sounding completely horrendous on this soundtrack. Angela Lansbury would have been far better, but after listening to this soundtrack quite a few times lately, I find that Lucy should have been dubbed, but that she wasn't horrible. Frankly, Jane Connell as Agnes Gooch is far more shrill and annoying than Lucy, if you ask me. :P I think this is worth a download if only for the curiosity factor...that's the reason I downloaded it the first time.
Notes about the CD version from the Rhino Handmade website's Mame entry:
Lucille Ball was chosen for the lead in the screen version of this blockbuster Broadway musical for the same reason she might be chose
n today: Her name is beloved the world over. Interestingly, as Lucy Ricardo in I Love Lucy, she often made comic sport of her less-than-sensational singing. But irony took a sad twist as controversy and Hollywood politics ultimately led many critics of the time to skewer Mame, ostensibly because Ball was out of her league vocally. Thirty years later, however, the film and music stand on their many merits.
Mame began as a best-selling book and was soon adapted as a dramatic play by producer Robert Fryer. Starring Rosalind Russell, Auntie Mame opened in New York in 1956 to rave reviews and big box office. Warner then brought it to the screen, casting Russell along with Jan Handzlik and Peggy Cass. Auntie Mame earned six Academy Award® nominations, including Best Picture.
Fryer then got the itch to make a stage musical of the hot property, hiring the writing team of Betty Comden and Adolph Green as librettists for the up-and-coming composer Jerry Herman (Hello,
Dolly!). Angela Lansbury easily landed the role of Mame, eventually earning a Tony for it. The show itself was the toast of Broadway.
In the wake of The Sound Of Music, musical films abounded in Hollywood. And when it was decided that Mame would sing and dance on the silver screen, the producers reached for a household word. Everyone loved Lucille Ball in 1970, and Warner was eager to bring her big-screen success to match her popularity on television.
Ball was playing a part 20 years her junior, but she danced well and worked extremely hard. Beatrice Arthur, Kirby Furlong, Bruce Davison, and Robert Preston costarred. Ball and Arthur were a well-matched team, adding unintentional humor with their low-register harmonizing during Herman's charming duet "Bosom Buddies." Preston turned in a moving ballad with "Loving You," which was added to the film's score.
Mame managed a decent box-office performance in 1974, even breaking records at Radio City Music Hall. Poison pe
n reviews aside, Ball's essential charms seduced viewers, who enjoyed the film all the same. And thanks to heavy reruns of I Love Lucy, the funny lady's fan base has only grown over the years, offering a chance to appreciate Mame outside its jaundiced show-biz circumstances.
This Warner Bros./Rhino Handmade release is the first CD appearance of the original Mame soundtrack. The higher fidelity format reveals overdubbing techniques used to capture more pitch-perfect performances by Lucille Ball. Of unique interest to soundtrack enthusiasts, these anomalies have not been EQ-ed out during remastering. We've left the work as originally assembled, while delivering the best possible sound quality.

vie career was released by Rhino in 1998 and at the time of its release included many tracks that had never been available on CD, and a few that had never even had a legitimate release, such as The Texas Tornado from her first film, 1936's The Pigskin Parade. The CD opens with The Texas Tornado and closes with the title track from her final film, 1963's I Could Go On Singing and includes tracks from The Wizard of Oz, Meet Me In St. Louis, A Star Is Born, and Gay Purr-ee, among others. Many of these soundtracks have seen release on CD, many from Rhino, since this CD's release but it's still the best source for several songs such as Look For The Silver Lining from Till The Clouds Roll By and the film version of Dear Mr. Gable/You Made Me Love You.

the last two tracks. Unfortunately, none of my other copies of this have better audio, and I haven't been able to access Warner Bros.' official DVD release or get a download of the Soundtrack Factory release. Someday once I'm on Netflix, I'll try to get it and rip a better soundtrack. Until then, this will have to do.

ABOUT THE DISC & RECORDINGS (Source)
Judy's final film performance features one of her best on-screen portrayals, playing an American concert performer very much like her real self. Her old friends and songwriters E.Y "Yip" Harburg and Harold Arlen wrote the title song.
A note about "It Never Was You": The version heard on this album is actually an alternate take of the performance as recorded live on the set with David Lee at the piano. A studio version recorded for the film, with orchestrations by Mort Lindsey, was released in 2006 on the Capitol CD "The Essential Judy Garland".
-----------------------------
This rip comes from the 2002 Capitol Special Products CD release of her 1960 studio album That's Entertainment! and the soundtrack to her final film performance, I Could Go On Singing. Two other two-fers released in 2002 include Miss Show Business (1955)/Judy (1956) and Judy In Love (1958)/Alone (1957).
1959's The Letter remained her only studio album not to see the light of day on CD, save for two tracks on the 2002 Capitol Records compilation Classic Judy Garland: The Capitol Years 1955-1965, until DRG Records and EMI released it, digitally remastered with bonus tracks.

This particular soundtrack is ripped from two different cheap DVD releases. The entire thing comes from the version of the movie included in Mill Creek Entertainment's 50 Family Movies DVD set, with the exception of about the first five seconds of the first track, which required audio from the Diamond Entertainment release. Although Mill Creek's version's sound mix was far less shrill, the MGM logo, and therefore the music from it, was cut off in this version, but it's present in the Diamond Entertainment release, which has a more shrill and nasty sound mix. The mix of those first few seconds from one release into the rest of the audio from the other release is seamless, fortunately.

This rip comes from the 2003 Rhino Handmade CD release of the Summer Stock and In The Good Old Summertime soundtracks. (They appear on the CD in that order, so if you plan to burn these onto CD, the Summer Stock tracks are sequenced before the ones from In The Good Old Summertime. Rhino Handmade releases are limited to a certain number of individually
numbered copies - in the case of Summer Stock/In The Good Old Summertime, the release is limited to 6,000 copies.
Summer Stock has previously only been available on CD in a long out-of-print edition released by CBS Special Products in 1990 which simply recorded the songs from the film's soundtrack. In the past, it was available on vinyl in abridged versions also recorded directly from the film's soundtrack. This release contains the full versions of all the songs taken from the pre-recordings, as well as score and outtakes.
---------------
From the Rhino Handmade website's entry for Summer Stock/In The Good Old Summertime:
Rhino and Turner Classic Movies Music are pleased to present two soundtracks featuring Judy Garland that have been unavailable for far too long. The recordings on this Summer Stock/In The Good Old Summertime<
/EM> original motion picture soundtrack double feature release cover the last two of the twenty-eight features and five short subjects in which Garland appeared during her 15-year tenure with Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.
In The Good Old Summertime is a musical version of M-G-M’s 1940 classic The Shop Around The Corner. Originally designed for June Allyson and Frank Sinatra, the story of two clerks in a turn-of-the-century music store was recast with Judy and Van Johnson in the roles (silent comedian Buster Keaton can also be glimpsed in a supporting part). The movie was released in 1949 and was both a critical and box office success. Along with six Garland performances, this CD includes selections by The King's Men barbershop quartet, a pair of violinist Marcia Van Dyke's numbers, and the sole surviving recording of In The Good Old Summertime's original, but unused, finale.
Beset by health problems and an ill-fated stint in Annie Get Your Gun, Judy began work in late
1949 on what would become her final Metro musical, Summer Stock. Paired with dancing great Gene Kelly, Garland plays a New England farmer who lets a troupe of performers use her barn and winds up falling in love with their director (Kelly). At Judy’s request, musical supervisor Saul Chaplin acquired the standard "Get Happy" for the film, and it became one of Garland’s greatest triumphs. Released in 1950, the film was even more popular than In The Good Old Summertime; nevertheless, Judy was released from her M-G-M contract weeks later. Along with all the songs from the film itself, this collection includes never-before-heard dance music and underscoring, and the outtake "Fall In Love" sung by Gloria De Haven and Phil Silvers.
This Turner Classic Movies Music edition of Summer Stock/In The Good Old Summertime original motion picture soundtrack double feature has been meticulously crafted to restore and expand the original 1949 and 1950 MGM albums with previously unavailable tra
cks. This disc marks the first release of every number in its entirety, as well as surviving background scoring, from Judy Garland's final, triumphant Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer achievements. All of the recordings included in this package --except two -- are in the original mono. This reissue also features liner notes from John Fricke, who coproduced and cowrote the 1997 Emmy Award-winning A&E Biography Judy: Beyond The Rainbow.

This rip comes from the 2003 Rhino Handmade CD release of the Summer Stock and In The Good Old Summertime soundtracks. (They appear on the CD in that order, so if you plan to burn these onto CD, the Summer Stock tracks are sequenced before the ones from In The Good Old Summertime. Rhino Handmade releases are limited to a certain number of individually
numbered copies - in the case of Summer Stock/In The Good Old Summertime, the release is limited to 6,000 copies.
Summer Stock has previously only been available on CD in a long out-of-print edition released by CBS Special Products in 1990 which simply recorded the songs from the film's soundtrack.

This could possibly be considered the second official soundtrack to Judy Garland's short-lived TV series, which only aired during the 1963-1964 season. (The first one was an album released in 1964 by Capitol titled Just For Openers.) While many many bootleg compilations have been released on vinyl and a few on CD, this compilation, released by Hip-O in 2002, comes directly from the T
V show's master tapes, meaning excellent sound quality. 32 tracks are here, many seeing their first ever release on CD, and many others seeing their first ever legitimate release. Judy never recorded or performed many of these songs outside the show, so this truly is a treasure trove of rare stuff. There's the show's intro, the half-time tags, dialogue between Judy and whoever she's singing with, and there are guest appearances by everyone from Liza Minelli to the now famous duet of Get Happy/Happy Days Are Here Again with Barbra Streisand to Peggy Lee, Mickey Rooney, and Lena Horne, among others. There aren't a lot of standards from her career on this particular CD, and no you won't find Over The Rainbow. (In fact, she only performed Over The Rainbow one time - on the Christmas episode. I'll be uploading a CD taken from that episode soon.) You will find plenty of classics that she never sang again, such as Moon River, Old Man River, and her emotional and powerful performance of Battle Hymn Of The Republic, s
ung in honor of her dear friend, John F. Kennedy Sr., who had just been assasinated a month prior to the taping of the episode in December of 1963. (Although that episode didn't air until January.)
Unfortunately, the show was cancelled after only 26 episodes due to poor ratings. Although critics almost universally loved Judy and generally liked the show, it recieved poor ratings due to being aired in the same timeslot as NBC's massively popular series Bonanza. Most of the show's episodes have since been released on DVD. Sid Luft himself released a CD of duets from the show in 1998 with duet partners such as Barbra Streisand, Ethel Merman, Lena Horne, Bobby Darin, Tony Bennett, Frank Sinatra, and Dean Martin, among others. Hip-O released this compilation in 2002, and starting in 2005, Savoy Jazz began releasing additional compilations of songs from the show, such as That Old Feeling: Classic Ballads From The Judy Garland Show, Great Day: Rare Recordings From The Judy Garland Show, a
nd the upcoming Greatest Hits Live.

If you've downloaded my previous version, you definitely need to download this one. I renamed the files so that you can simply overwrite your old vinyl-ripped MP3s with these. Like with the previous vinyl rips I uploaded, these are perfectly crystal clear and clean, but without that webstream-type thing going on. This rip either comes from the 2004 Rhino Handmade CD, which was released in an individually numbered limited edition of 2,500 copies, or the 2005 Collector's Choice Release, which is not limited. Either way, it's from a CD. Both CDs make the fact that none of Lucy's songs were single takes. In fact, pretty much each line is from a different take than the last. IN FACT, some LINES are even taken from multiple takes. When Rhino remastered this soundtrack for CD release, they chose not to run any kind of equalizer o
n Lucy's vocals to make them sound more even, as if they possibly came from a single take, or at least that practically every single line wasn't from a different take from the last. However, it's all this effort that keeps Lucy from sounding completely horrendous on this soundtrack. Angela Lansbury would have been far better, but after listening to this soundtrack quite a few times lately, I find that Lucy should have been dubbed, but that she wasn't horrible. Frankly, Jane Connell as Agnes Gooch is far more shrill and annoying than Lucy, if you ask me. :P I think this is worth a download if only for the curiosity factor...that's the reason I downloaded it the first time.
Notes about the CD version from the Rhino Handmade website's Mame entry:
Lucille Ball was chosen for the lead in the screen version of this blockbuster Broadway musical for the same reason she might be chose
n today: Her name is beloved the world over. Interestingly, as Lucy Ricardo in I Love Lucy, she often made comic sport of her less-than-sensational singing. But irony took a sad twist as controversy and Hollywood politics ultimately led many critics of the time to skewer Mame, ostensibly because Ball was out of her league vocally. Thirty years later, however, the film and music stand on their many merits.
Mame began as a best-selling book and was soon adapted as a dramatic play by producer Robert Fryer. Starring Rosalind Russell, Auntie Mame opened in New York in 1956 to rave reviews and big box office. Warner then brought it to the screen, casting Russell along with Jan Handzlik and Peggy Cass. Auntie Mame earned six Academy Award® nominations, including Best Picture.
Fryer then got the itch to make a stage musical of the hot property, hiring the writing team of Betty Comden and Adolph Green as librettists for the up-and-coming composer Jerry Herman (Hello,
Dolly!). Angela Lansbury easily landed the role of Mame, eventually earning a Tony for it. The show itself was the toast of Broadway.
In the wake of The Sound Of Music, musical films abounded in Hollywood. And when it was decided that Mame would sing and dance on the silver screen, the producers reached for a household word. Everyone loved Lucille Ball in 1970, and Warner was eager to bring her big-screen success to match her popularity on television.
Ball was playing a part 20 years her junior, but she danced well and worked extremely hard. Beatrice Arthur, Kirby Furlong, Bruce Davison, and Robert Preston costarred. Ball and Arthur were a well-matched team, adding unintentional humor with their low-register harmonizing during Herman's charming duet "Bosom Buddies." Preston turned in a moving ballad with "Loving You," which was added to the film's score.
Mame managed a decent box-office performance in 1974, even breaking records at Radio City Music Hall. Poison pe
n reviews aside, Ball's essential charms seduced viewers, who enjoyed the film all the same. And thanks to heavy reruns of I Love Lucy, the funny lady's fan base has only grown over the years, offering a chance to appreciate Mame outside its jaundiced show-biz circumstances.
This Warner Bros./Rhino Handmade release is the first CD appearance of the original Mame soundtrack. The higher fidelity format reveals overdubbing techniques used to capture more pitch-perfect performances by Lucille Ball. Of unique interest to soundtrack enthusiasts, these anomalies have not been EQ-ed out during remastering. We've left the work as originally assembled, while delivering the best possible sound quality.

vie career was released by Rhino in 1998 and at the time of its release included many tracks that had never been available on CD, and a few that had never even had a legitimate release, such as The Texas Tornado from her first film, 1936's The Pigskin Parade. The CD opens with The Texas Tornado and closes with the title track from her final film, 1963's I Could Go On Singing and includes tracks from The Wizard of Oz, Meet Me In St. Louis, A Star Is Born, and Gay Purr-ee, among others. Many of these soundtracks have seen release on CD, many from Rhino, since this CD's release but it's still the best source for several songs such as Look For The Silver Lining from Till The Clouds Roll By and the film version of Dear Mr. Gable/You Made Me Love You.

the last two tracks. Unfortunately, none of my other copies of this have better audio, and I haven't been able to access Warner Bros.' official DVD release or get a download of the Soundtrack Factory release. Someday once I'm on Netflix, I'll try to get it and rip a better soundtrack. Until then, this will have to do.

The CD is still available here at Rhino's website and at Amazon.com, but I have no clue how much longer you'll be able to find it. Maybe once Rhino sells all their copies, Collector's Choice Music will do what they did with Mame when Rhino sold all their Handmade copies of it and reissue it through their label.

ABOUT THE DISC & RECORDINGS (Source)
Judy's final film performance features one of her best on-screen portrayals, playing an American concert performer very much like her real self. Her old friends and songwriters E.Y "Yip" Harburg and Harold Arlen wrote the title song.
A note about "It Never Was You": The version heard on this album is actually an alternate take of the performance as recorded live on the set with David Lee at the piano. A studio version recorded for the film, with orchestrations by Mort Lindsey, was released in 2006 on the Capitol CD "The Essential Judy Garland".
-----------------------------
This rip comes from the 2002 Capitol Special Products CD release of her 1960 studio album That's Entertainment! and the soundtrack to her final film performance, I Could Go On Singing. Two other two-fers released in 2002 include Miss Show Business (1955)/Judy (1956) and Judy In Love (1958)/Alone (1957).
1959's The Letter remained her only studio album not to see the light of day on CD, save for two tracks on the 2002 Capitol Records compilation Classic Judy Garland: The Capitol Years 1955-1965, until DRG Records and EMI released it, digitally remastered with bonus tracks.

There IS a Judy connection here. She was originally set to star in Jane Powell's role in the film. However, she was fired from the film before she shot any scenes or recorded any scenes.R>
This particular soundtrack is ripped from two different cheap DVD releases. The entire thing comes from the version of the movie included in Mill Creek Entertainment's 50 Family Movies DVD set, with the exception of about the first five seconds of the first track, which required audio from the Diamond Entertainment release. Although Mill Creek's version's sound mix was far less shrill, the MGM logo, and therefore the music from it, was cut off in this version, but it's present in the Diamond Entertainment release, which has a more shrill and nasty sound mix. The mix of those first few seconds from one release into the rest of the audio from the other release is seamless, fortunately.

This rip comes from the 2003 Rhino Handmade CD release of the Summer Stock and In The Good Old Summertime soundtracks. (They appear on the CD in that order, so if you plan to burn these onto CD, the Summer Stock tracks are sequenced before the ones from In The Good Old Summertime. Rhino Handmade releases are limited to a certain number of individually numbered copies - in the case of Summer Stock/In The Good Old Summertime, the release is limited to 6,000 copies.
This CD marks the premiere digital release of In The Good Old Summertime, which has previously only been available on vinyl in versions recorded directly from the film itself. This version utilizes all surviving pre-recordings and includes all of the songs and all surviving score, plus the only surviving recording of the unused or

From the Rhino Handmade website's entry for Summer Stock/In The Good Old Summertime:
Rhino and Turner Classic Movies Music are pleased to present two soundtracks featuring Judy Garland that have been unavailable for far too long. The recordings on this Summer Stock/In The Good Old Summertime original motion picture soundtrack double feature release cover the last two of the twenty-eight features and five short subjects in which Garland appeared during her 15-year tenure with Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.
In The Good Old Summertime is a musical version of M-G-M’s 1940 classic The Shop Around The Corner. Originally designed for June Allyson and Frank Sinatra, the story of two clerks in a turn-of-the-century music store was recast with Judy and Van Johnson in the rol
es (silent comedian Buster Keaton can also be glimpsed in a supporting part). The movie was released in 1949 and was both a critical and box office success. Along with six Garland performances, this CD includes selections by The King's Men barbershop quartet, a pair of violinist Marcia Van Dyke's numbers, and the sole surviving recording of In The Good Old Summertime's original, but unused, finale.
Beset by health problems and an ill-fated stint in Annie Get Your Gun, Judy began work in late 1949 on what would become her final Metro musical, Summer Stock. Paired with dancing great Gene Kelly, Garland plays a New England farmer who lets a troupe of performers use her barn and winds up falling in love with their director (Kelly). At Judy’s request, musical supervisor Saul Chaplin acquired the standard "Get Happy" for the film, and it became one of Garland’s greatest triumphs. Released in 1950, the film was even more popular than In The Good Old Summertime; nevertheless
, Judy was released from her M-G-M contract weeks later. Along with all the songs from the film itself, this collection includes never-before-heard dance music and underscoring, and the outtake "Fall In Love" sung by Gloria De Haven and Phil Silvers.
This Turner Classic Movies Music edition of Summer Stock/In The Good Old Summertime original motion picture soundtrack double feature has been meticulously crafted to restore and expand the original 1949 and 1950 MGM albums with previously unavailable tracks. This disc marks the first release of every number in its entirety, as well as surviving background scoring, from Judy Garland's final, triumphant Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer achievements. All of the recordings included in this package --except two -- are in the original mono. This reissue also features liner notes from John Fricke, who coproduced and cowrote the 1997 Emmy Award-winning A&E Biography Judy: Beyond The Rainbow.

This could possibly be considered the second official soundtrack to Judy Garland's short-lived TV series, which only aired during the 1963-1964 season. (The first one was an album released in 1964 by Capitol titled Just For Openers.) While many many bootleg compilations have been released on vinyl and a few on CD, this compilation, released by Hip-O in 2002, comes directly from the T
V show's master tapes, meaning excellent sound quality. 32 tracks are here, many seeing their first ever release on CD, and many others seeing their first ever legitimate release. Judy never recorded or performed many of these songs outside the show, so this truly is a treasure trove of rare stuff. There's the show's intro, the half-time tags, dialogue between Judy and whoever she's singing with, and there are guest appearances by everyone from Liza Minelli to the now famous duet of Get Happy/Happy Days Are Here Again with Barbra Streisand to Peggy Lee, Mickey Rooney, and Lena Horne, among others. There aren't a lot of standards from her career on this particular CD, and no you won't find Over The Rainbow. (In fact, she only performed Over The Rainbow one time - on the Christmas episode. I'll be uploading a CD taken from that episode soon.) You will find plenty of classics that she never sang again, such as Moon River, Old Man River, and her emotional and powerful performance of Battle Hymn Of The Republic, s
ung in honor of her dear friend, John F. Kennedy Sr., who had just been assasinated a month prior to the taping of the episode in December of 1963. (Although that episode didn't air until January.)
Unfortunately, the show was cancelled after only 26 episodes due to poor ratings. Although critics almost universally loved Judy and generally liked the show, it recieved poor ratings due to being aired in the same timeslot as NBC's massively popular series Bonanza. Most of the show's episodes have since been released on DVD. Sid Luft himself released a CD of duets from the show in 1998 with duet partners such as Barbra Streisand, Ethel Merman, Lena Horne, Bobby Darin, Tony Bennett, Frank Sinatra, and Dean Martin, among others. Hip-O released this compilation in 2002, and starting in 2005, Savoy Jazz began releasing additional compilations of songs from the show, such as That Old Feeling: Classic Ballads From The Judy Garland Show, Great Day: Rare Recordings From The Judy Garland Show, a
nd the upcoming Greatest Hits Live.

If you've downloaded my previous version, you definitely need to download this one. I renamed the files so that you can simply overwrite your old vinyl-ripped MP3s with these. Like with the previous vinyl rips I uploaded, these are perfectly crystal clear and clean, but without that webstream-type thing going on. This rip either comes from the 2004 Rhino Handmade CD, which was released in an individually numbered limited edition of 2,500 copies, or the 2005 Collector's Choice Release, which is not limited. Either way, it's from a CD. Both CDs make the fact that none of Lucy's songs were single takes. In fact, pretty much each line is from a different take than the last. IN FACT, some LINES are even taken from multiple takes. When Rhino remastered this soundtrack for CD release, they chose not to run any kind of equalizer o
n Lucy's vocals to make them sound more even, as if they possibly came from a single take, or at least that practically every single line wasn't from a different take from the last. However, it's all this effort that keeps Lucy from sounding completely horrendous on this soundtrack. Angela Lansbury would have been far better, but after listening to this soundtrack quite a few times lately, I find that Lucy should have been dubbed, but that she wasn't horrible. Frankly, Jane Connell as Agnes Gooch is far more shrill and annoying than Lucy, if you ask me. :P I think this is worth a download if only for the curiosity factor...that's the reason I downloaded it the first time.
Notes about the CD version from the Rhino Handmade website's Mame entry:
Lucille Ball was chosen for the lead in the screen version of this blockbuster Broadway musical for the same reason she might be chose
n today: Her name is beloved the world over. Interestingly, as Lucy Ricardo in I Love Lucy, she often made comic sport of her less-than-sensational singing. But irony took a sad twist as controversy and Hollywood politics ultimately led many critics of the time to skewer Mame, ostensibly because Ball was out of her league vocally. Thirty years later, however, the film and music stand on their many merits.
Mame began as a best-selling book and was soon adapted as a dramatic play by producer Robert Fryer. Starring Rosalind Russell, Auntie Mame opened in New York in 1956 to rave reviews and big box office. Warner then brought it to the screen, casting Russell along with Jan Handzlik and Peggy Cass. Auntie Mame earned six Academy Award® nominations, including Best Picture.
Fryer then got the itch to make a stage musical of the hot property, hiring the writing team of Betty Comden and Adolph Green as librettists for the up-and-coming composer Jerry Herman (Hello,
Dolly!). Angela Lansbury easily landed the role of Mame, eventually earning a Tony for it. The show itself was the toast of Broadway.
In the wake of The Sound Of Music, musical films abounded in Hollywood. And when it was decided that Mame would sing and dance on the silver screen, the producers reached for a household word. Everyone loved Lucille Ball in 1970, and Warner was eager to bring her big-screen success to match her popularity on television.
Ball was playing a part 20 years her junior, but she danced well and worked extremely hard. Beatrice Arthur, Kirby Furlong, Bruce Davison, and Robert Preston costarred. Ball and Arthur were a well-matched team, adding unintentional humor with their low-register harmonizing during Herman's charming duet "Bosom Buddies." Preston turned in a moving ballad with "Loving You," which was added to the film's score.
Mame managed a decent box-office performance in 1974, even breaking records at Radio City Music Hall. Poison pe
n reviews aside, Ball's essential charms seduced viewers, who enjoyed the film all the same. And thanks to heavy reruns of I Love Lucy, the funny lady's fan base has only grown over the years, offering a chance to appreciate Mame outside its jaundiced show-biz circumstances.
This Warner Bros./Rhino Handmade release is the first CD appearance of the original Mame soundtrack. The higher fidelity format reveals overdubbing techniques used to capture more pitch-perfect performances by Lucille Ball. Of unique interest to soundtrack enthusiasts, these anomalies have not been EQ-ed out during remastering. We've left the work as originally assembled, while delivering the best possible sound quality.

This compilation of tracks from Judy's mo
vie career was released by Rhino in 1998 and at the time of its release included many tracks that had never been available on CD, and a few that had never even had a legitimate release, such as The Texas Tornado from her first film, 1936's The Pigskin Parade. The CD opens with The Texas Tornado and closes with the title track from her final film, 1963's I Could Go On Singing and includes tracks from The Wizard of Oz, Meet Me In St. Louis, A Star Is Born, and Gay Purr-ee, among others. Many of these soundtracks have seen release on CD, many from Rhino, since this CD's release but it's still the best source for several songs such as Look For The Silver Lining from Till The Clouds Roll By and the film version of Dear Mr. Gable/You Made Me Love You.

This was taken from the DVD version available in Mill Creek Entertainment's 50 Family Movies set. This is not on the level of Rhino's soundtrack releases of classic MGM musicals, but the quality is still fairly good. There is some kind of weird shaky volume effect on
the last two tracks. Unfortunately, none of my other copies of this have better audio, and I haven't been able to access Warner Bros.' official DVD release or get a download of the Soundtrack Factory release. Someday once I'm on Netflix, I'll try to get it and rip a better soundtrack. Until then, this will have to do.

The CD is still available here at Rhino's website and at Amazon.com, but I have no clue how much longer you'll be able to find it. Maybe once Rhino sells all their copies, Collector's Choice Music will do what they did with Mame when Rhino sold all their Handmade copies of it and reissue it through their label.

ABOUT THE DISC & RECORDINGS (Source)
Judy's final film performance features one of her best on-screen portrayals, playing an American concert performer very much like her real self. Her old friends and songwriters E.Y "Yip" Harburg and Harold Arlen wrote the title song.
A note about "It Never Was You": The version heard on this album is actually an alternate take of the performance as recorded live on the set with David Lee at the piano. A studio version recorded for the film, with orchestrations by Mort Lindsey, was released in 2006 on the Capitol CD "The Essential Judy Garland".
-----------------------------
This rip comes from the 2002 Capitol Special Products CD release of her 1960 studio album That's Entertainment! and the soundtrack to her final film performance, I Could Go On Singing. Two other two-fers released in 2002 include Miss Show Business (1955)/Judy (1956) and Judy In Love (1958)/Alone (1957).
1959's The Letter remained her only studio album not to see the light of day on CD, save for two tracks on the 2002 Capitol Records compilation Classic Judy Garland: The Capitol Years 1955-1965, until DRG Records and EMI released it, digitally remastered with bonus tracks.

There IS a Judy connection here. She was originally set to star in Jane Powell's role in the film. However, she was fired from the film before she shot any scenes or recorded any scenes.R>
This particular soundtrack is ripped from two different cheap DVD releases. The entire thing comes from the version of the movie included in Mill Creek Entertainment's 50 Family Movies DVD set, with the exception of about the first five seconds of the first track, which required audio from the Diamond Entertainment release. Although Mill Creek's version's sound mix was far less shrill, the MGM logo, and therefore the music from it, was cut off in this version, but it's present in the Diamond Entertainment release, which has a more shrill and nasty sound mix. The mix of those first few seconds from one release into the rest of the audio from the other release is seamless, fortunately.

This could possibly be considered the second official soundtrack to Judy Garland's short-lived TV series, which only aired during the 1963-1964 season. (The first one was an album released in 1964 by Capitol titled Just For Openers.) While many many bootleg compilations have been released on vinyl and a few on CD, this compilation, released by Hip-O in 2002, comes directly from the T
V show's master tapes, meaning excellent sound quality. 32 tracks are here, many seeing their first ever release on CD, and many others seeing their first ever legitimate release. Judy never recorded or performed many of these songs outside the show, so this truly is a treasure trove of rare stuff. There's the show's intro, the half-time tags, dialogue between Judy and whoever she's singing with, and there are guest appearances by everyone from Liza Minelli to the now famous duet of Get Happy/Happy Days Are Here Again with Barbra Streisand to Peggy Lee, Mickey Rooney, and Lena Horne, among others. There aren't a lot of standards from her career on this particular CD, and no you won't find Over The Rainbow. (In fact, she only performed Over The Rainbow one time - on the Christmas episode. I'll be uploading a CD taken from that episode soon.) You will find plenty of classics that she never sang again, such as Moon River, Old Man River, and her emotional and powerful performance of Battle Hymn Of The Republic, s
ung in honor of her dear friend, John F. Kennedy Sr., who had just been assasinated a month prior to the taping of the episode in December of 1963. (Although that episode didn't air until January.)
Unfortunately, the show was cancelled after only 26 episodes due to poor ratings. Although critics almost universally loved Judy and generally liked the show, it recieved poor ratings due to being aired in the same timeslot as NBC's massively popular series Bonanza. Most of the show's episodes have since been released on DVD. Sid Luft himself released a CD of duets from the show in 1998 with duet partners such as Barbra Streisand, Ethel Merman, Lena Horne, Bobby Darin, Tony Bennett, Frank Sinatra, and Dean Martin, among others. Hip-O released this compilation in 2002, and starting in 2005, Savoy Jazz began releasing additional compilations of songs from the show, such as That Old Feeling: Classic Ballads From The Judy Garland Show, Great Day: Rare Recordings From The Judy Garland Show, a
nd the upcoming Greatest Hits Live.

If you've downloaded my previous version, you definitely need to download this one. I renamed the files so that you can simply overwrite your old vinyl-ripped MP3s with these. Like with the previous vinyl rips I uploaded, these are perfectly crystal clear and clean, but without that webstream-type thing going on. This rip either comes from the 2004 Rhino Handmade CD, which was released in an individually numbered limited edition of 2,500 copies, or the 2005 Collector's Choice Release, which is not limited. Either way, it's from a CD. Both CDs make the fact that none of Lucy's songs were single takes. In fact, pretty much each line is from a different take than the last. IN FACT, some LINES are even taken from multiple takes. When Rhino remastered this soundtrack for CD release, they chose not to run any kind of equalizer o
n Lucy's vocals to make them sound more even, as if they possibly came from a single take, or at least that practically every single line wasn't from a different take from the last. However, it's all this effort that keeps Lucy from sounding completely horrendous on this soundtrack. Angela Lansbury would have been far better, but after listening to this soundtrack quite a few times lately, I find that Lucy should have been dubbed, but that she wasn't horrible. Frankly, Jane Connell as Agnes Gooch is far more shrill and annoying than Lucy, if you ask me. :P I think this is worth a download if only for the curiosity factor...that's the reason I downloaded it the first time.
Notes about the CD version from the Rhino Handmade website's Mame entry:
Lucille Ball was chosen for the lead in the screen version of this blockbuster Broadway musical for the same reason she might be chose
n today: Her name is beloved the world over. Interestingly, as Lucy Ricardo in I Love Lucy, she often made comic sport of her less-than-sensational singing. But irony took a sad twist as controversy and Hollywood politics ultimately led many critics of the time to skewer Mame, ostensibly because Ball was out of her league vocally. Thirty years later, however, the film and music stand on their many merits.
Mame began as a best-selling book and was soon adapted as a dramatic play by producer Robert Fryer. Starring Rosalind Russell, Auntie Mame opened in New York in 1956 to rave reviews and big box office. Warner then brought it to the screen, casting Russell along with Jan Handzlik and Peggy Cass. Auntie Mame earned six Academy Award® nominations, including Best Picture.
Fryer then got the itch to make a stage musical of the hot property, hiring the writing team of Betty Comden and Adolph Green as librettists for the up-and-coming composer Jerry Herman (Hello,
Dolly!). Angela Lansbury easily landed the role of Mame, eventually earning a Tony for it. The show itself was the toast of Broadway.
In the wake of The Sound Of Music, musical films abounded in Hollywood. And when it was decided that Mame would sing and dance on the silver screen, the producers reached for a household word. Everyone loved Lucille Ball in 1970, and Warner was eager to bring her big-screen success to match her popularity on television.
Ball was playing a part 20 years her junior, but she danced well and worked extremely hard. Beatrice Arthur, Kirby Furlong, Bruce Davison, and Robert Preston costarred. Ball and Arthur were a well-matched team, adding unintentional humor with their low-register harmonizing during Herman's charming duet "Bosom Buddies." Preston turned in a moving ballad with "Loving You," which was added to the film's score.
Mame managed a decent box-office performance in 1974, even breaking records at Radio City Music Hall. Poison pe
n reviews aside, Ball's essential charms seduced viewers, who enjoyed the film all the same. And thanks to heavy reruns of I Love Lucy, the funny lady's fan base has only grown over the years, offering a chance to appreciate Mame outside its jaundiced show-biz circumstances.
This Warner Bros./Rhino Handmade release is the first CD appearance of the original Mame soundtrack. The higher fidelity format reveals overdubbing techniques used to capture more pitch-perfect performances by Lucille Ball. Of unique interest to soundtrack enthusiasts, these anomalies have not been EQ-ed out during remastering. We've left the work as originally assembled, while delivering the best possible sound quality.

This compilation of tracks from Judy's mo
vie career was released by Rhino in 1998 and at the time of its release included many tracks that had never been available on CD, and a few that had never even had a legitimate release, such as The Texas Tornado from her first film, 1936's The Pigskin Parade. The CD opens with The Texas Tornado and closes with the title track from her final film, 1963's I Could Go On Singing and includes tracks from The Wizard of Oz, Meet Me In St. Louis, A Star Is Born, and Gay Purr-ee, among others. Many of these soundtracks have seen release on CD, many from Rhino, since this CD's release but it's still the best source for several songs such as Look For The Silver Lining from Till The Clouds Roll By and the film version of Dear Mr. Gable/You Made Me Love You.

The CD is still available here at Rhino's website and at Amazon.com, but I have no clue how much longer you'll be able to find it. Maybe once Rhino sells all their copies, Collector's Choice Music will do what they did with Mame when Rhino sold all their Handmade copies of it and reissue it through their label.

ABOUT THE DISC & RECORDINGS (Source)
Judy's final film performance features one of her best on-screen portrayals, playing an American concert performer very much like her real self. Her old friends and songwriters E.Y "Yip" Harburg and Harold Arlen wrote the title song.
A note about "It Never Was You": The version heard on this album is actually an alternate take of the performance as recorded live on the set with David Lee at the piano. A studio version recorded for the film, with orchestrations by Mort Lindsey, was released in 2006 on the Capitol CD "The Essential Judy Garland".
-----------------------------
This rip comes from the 2002 Capitol Special Products CD release of her 1960 studio album That's Entertainment! and the soundtrack to her final film performance, I Could Go On Singing. Two other two-fers released in 2002 include Miss Show Business (1955)/Judy (1956) and Judy In Love (1958)/Alone (1957).
1959's The Letter remained her only studio album not to see the light of day on CD, save for two tracks on the 2002 Capitol Records compilation Classic Judy Garland: The Capitol Years 1955-1965, until DRG Records and EMI released it, digitally remastered with bonus tracks.

This particular soundtrack is ripped from two different cheap DVD releases. The entire thing comes from the version of the movie included in Mill Creek Entertainment's 50 Family Movies DVD set, with the exception of about the first five seconds of the first track, which required audio from the Diamond Entertainment release. Although Mill Creek's version's sound mix was far less shrill, the MGM logo, and therefore the music from it, was cut off in this version, but it's present in the Diamond Entertainment release, which has a more shrill and nasty sound mix. The mix of those first few seconds from one release into the rest of the audio from the other release is seamless, fortunately.

If you've downloaded my previous version, you definitely need to download this one. I renamed the files so that you can simply overwrite your old vinyl-ripped MP3s with these. Like with the previous vinyl rips I uploaded, these are perfectly crystal clear and clean, but without that webstream-type thing going on. This rip either comes from the 2004 Rhino Handmade CD, which was released in an individually numbered limited edition of 2,500 copies, or the 2005 Collector's Choice Release, which is not limited. Either way, it's from a CD. Both CDs make the fact that none of Lucy's songs were single takes. In fact, pretty much each line is from a different take than the last. IN FACT, some LINES are even taken from multiple takes. When Rhino remastered this soundtrack for CD release, they chose not to run any kind of equalizer o
n Lucy's vocals to make them sound more even, as if they possibly came from a single take, or at least that practically every single line wasn't from a different take from the last. However, it's all this effort that keeps Lucy from sounding completely horrendous on this soundtrack. Angela Lansbury would have been far better, but after listening to this soundtrack quite a few times lately, I find that Lucy should have been dubbed, but that she wasn't horrible. Frankly, Jane Connell as Agnes Gooch is far more shrill and annoying than Lucy, if you ask me. :P I think this is worth a download if only for the curiosity factor...that's the reason I downloaded it the first time.
Notes about the CD version from the Rhino Handmade website's Mame entry:
Lucille Ball was chosen for the lead in the screen version of this blockbuster Broadway musical for the same reason she might be chose
n today: Her name is beloved the world over. Interestingly, as Lucy Ricardo in I Love Lucy, she often made comic sport of her less-than-sensational singing. But irony took a sad twist as controversy and Hollywood politics ultimately led many critics of the time to skewer Mame, ostensibly because Ball was out of her league vocally. Thirty years later, however, the film and music stand on their many merits.
Mame began as a best-selling book and was soon adapted as a dramatic play by producer Robert Fryer. Starring Rosalind Russell, Auntie Mame opened in New York in 1956 to rave reviews and big box office. Warner then brought it to the screen, casting Russell along with Jan Handzlik and Peggy Cass. Auntie Mame earned six Academy Award® nominations, including Best Picture.
Fryer then got the itch to make a stage musical of the hot property, hiring the writing team of Betty Comden and Adolph Green as librettists for the up-and-coming composer Jerry Herman (Hello,
Dolly!). Angela Lansbury easily landed the role of Mame, eventually earning a Tony for it. The show itself was the toast of Broadway.
In the wake of The Sound Of Music, musical films abounded in Hollywood. And when it was decided that Mame would sing and dance on the silver screen, the producers reached for a household word. Everyone loved Lucille Ball in 1970, and Warner was eager to bring her big-screen success to match her popularity on television.
Ball was playing a part 20 years her junior, but she danced well and worked extremely hard. Beatrice Arthur, Kirby Furlong, Bruce Davison, and Robert Preston costarred. Ball and Arthur were a well-matched team, adding unintentional humor with their low-register harmonizing during Herman's charming duet "Bosom Buddies." Preston turned in a moving ballad with "Loving You," which was added to the film's score.
Mame managed a decent box-office performance in 1974, even breaking records at Radio City Music Hall. Poison pe
n reviews aside, Ball's essential charms seduced viewers, who enjoyed the film all the same. And thanks to heavy reruns of I Love Lucy, the funny lady's fan base has only grown over the years, offering a chance to appreciate Mame outside its jaundiced show-biz circumstances.
This Warner Bros./Rhino Handmade release is the first CD appearance of the original Mame soundtrack. The higher fidelity format reveals overdubbing techniques used to capture more pitch-perfect performances by Lucille Ball. Of unique interest to soundtrack enthusiasts, these anomalies have not been EQ-ed out during remastering. We've left the work as originally assembled, while delivering the best possible sound quality.

This compilation of tracks from Judy's mo
vie career was released by Rhino in 1998 and at the time of its release included many tracks that had never been available on CD, and a few that had never even had a legitimate release, such as The Texas Tornado from her first film, 1936's The Pigskin Parade. The CD opens with The Texas Tornado and closes with the title track from her final film, 1963's I Could Go On Singing and includes tracks from The Wizard of Oz, Meet Me In St. Louis, A Star Is Born, and Gay Purr-ee, among others. Many of these soundtracks have seen release on CD, many from Rhino, since this CD's release but it's still the best source for several songs such as Look For The Silver Lining from Till The Clouds Roll By and the film version of Dear Mr. Gable/You Made Me Love You.

the last two tracks. Unfortunately, none of my other copies of this have better audio, and I haven't been able to access Warner Bros.' official DVD release or get a download of the Soundtrack Factory release. Someday once I'm on Netflix, I'll try to get it and rip a better soundtrack. Until then, this will have to do.

If you've downloaded my previous version, you definitely need to download this one. I renamed the files so that you can simply overwrite your old vinyl-ripped MP3s with these. Like with the previous vinyl rips I uploaded, these are perfectly crystal clear and clean, but without that webstream-type thing going on. This rip either comes from the 2004 Rhino Handmade CD, which was released in an individually numbered limited edition of 2,500 copies, or the 2005 Collector's Choice Release, which is not limited. Either way, it's from a CD. Both CDs make the fact that none of Lucy's songs were single takes. In fact, pretty much each line is from a different take than the last. IN FACT, some LINES are even taken from multiple takes. When Rhino remastered this soundtrack for CD release, they chose not to run any kind of equalizer o
n Lucy's vocals to make them sound more even, as if they possibly came from a single take, or at least that practically every single line wasn't from a different take from the last. However, it's all this effort that keeps Lucy from sounding completely horrendous on this soundtrack. Angela Lansbury would have been far better, but after listening to this soundtrack quite a few times lately, I find that Lucy should have been dubbed, but that she wasn't horrible. Frankly, Jane Connell as Agnes Gooch is far more shrill and annoying than Lucy, if you ask me. :P I think this is worth a download if only for the curiosity factor...that's the reason I downloaded it the first time.
Notes about the CD version from the Rhino Handmade website's Mame entry:
Lucille Ball was chosen for the lead in the screen version of this blockbuster Broadway musical for the same reason she might be chose
n today: Her name is beloved the world over. Interestingly, as Lucy Ricardo in I Love Lucy, she often made comic sport of her less-than-sensational singing. But irony took a sad twist as controversy and Hollywood politics ultimately led many critics of the time to skewer Mame, ostensibly because Ball was out of her league vocally. Thirty years later, however, the film and music stand on their many merits.
Mame began as a best-selling book and was soon adapted as a dramatic play by producer Robert Fryer. Starring Rosalind Russell, Auntie Mame opened in New York in 1956 to rave reviews and big box office. Warner then brought it to the screen, casting Russell along with Jan Handzlik and Peggy Cass. Auntie Mame earned six Academy Award® nominations, including Best Picture.
Fryer then got the itch to make a stage musical of the hot property, hiring the writing team of Betty Comden and Adolph Green as librettists for the up-and-coming composer Jerry Herman (Hello,
Dolly!). Angela Lansbury easily landed the role of Mame, eventually earning a Tony for it. The show itself was the toast of Broadway.
In the wake of The Sound Of Music, musical films abounded in Hollywood. And when it was decided that Mame would sing and dance on the silver screen, the producers reached for a household word. Everyone loved Lucille Ball in 1970, and Warner was eager to bring her big-screen success to match her popularity on television.
Ball was playing a part 20 years her junior, but she danced well and worked extremely hard. Beatrice Arthur, Kirby Furlong, Bruce Davison, and Robert Preston costarred. Ball and Arthur were a well-matched team, adding unintentional humor with their low-register harmonizing during Herman's charming duet "Bosom Buddies." Preston turned in a moving ballad with "Loving You," which was added to the film's score.
Mame managed a decent box-office performance in 1974, even breaking records at Radio City Music Hall. Poison pe
n reviews aside, Ball's essential charms seduced viewers, who enjoyed the film all the same. And thanks to heavy reruns of I Love Lucy, the funny lady's fan base has only grown over the years, offering a chance to appreciate Mame outside its jaundiced show-biz circumstances.
This Warner Bros./Rhino Handmade release is the first CD appearance of the original Mame soundtrack. The higher fidelity format reveals overdubbing techniques used to capture more pitch-perfect performances by Lucille Ball. Of unique interest to soundtrack enthusiasts, these anomalies have not been EQ-ed out during remastering. We've left the work as originally assembled, while delivering the best possible sound quality.

ABOUT THE DISC & RECORDINGS (Source)
Judy's final film performance features one of her best on-screen portrayals, playing an American concert performer very much like her real self. Her old friends and songwriters E.Y "Yip" Harburg and Harold Arlen wrote the title song.
A note about "It Never Was You": The version heard on this album is actually an alternate take of the performance as recorded live on the set with David Lee at the piano. A studio version recorded for the film, with orchestrations by Mort Lindsey, was released in 2006 on the Capitol CD "The Essential Judy Garland".
-----------------------------
This rip comes from the 2002 Capitol Special Products CD release of her 1960 studio album That's Entertainment! and the soundtrack to her final film performance, I Could Go On Singing. Two other two-fers released in 2002 include Miss Show Business (1955)/Judy (1956) and Judy In Love (1958)/Alone (1957).
1959's The Letter remained her only studio album not to see the light of day on CD, save for two tracks on the 2002 Capitol Records compilation Classic Judy Garland: The Capitol Years 1955-1965, until DRG Records and EMI released it, digitally remastered with bonus tracks.

--------------------
There IS a Judy connection here. She was originally set to star in Jane Powell's role in the film. However, she was fired from the film before she shot any scenes or recorded any scenes.R>
This particular soundtrack is ripped from two different cheap DVD releases. The entire thing comes from the version of the movie included in Mill Creek Entertainment's 50 Family Movies DVD set, with the exception of about the first five seconds of the first track, which required audio from the Diamond Entertainment release. Although Mill Creek's version's sound mix was far less shrill, the MGM logo, and therefore the music from it, was cut off in this version, but it's present in the Diamond Entertainment release, which has a more shrill and nasty sound mix. The mix of those first few seconds from one release into the rest of the audio from the other release is seamless, fortunately.

This rip comes from the 2002 Capitol Special Products CD release of her 1960 studio album That's Entertainment! and the soundtrack to her final film performance, I Could Go On Singing. Two other two-fers released in 2002 include Miss Show Business (1955)/Judy (1956) and Judy In Love (1958)/Alone (1957).
1959's The Letter remained her only studio album not to see the light of day on CD, save for two tracks on the 2002 Capitol Records compilation Classic Judy Garland: The Capitol Years 1955-1965, until DRG Records and EMI released it, digitally remastered with bonus tracks.

There IS a Judy connection here. She was originally set to star in Jane Powell's role in the film. However, she was fired from the film before she shot any scenes or recorded any scenes.R>
This particular soundtrack is ripped from two different cheap DVD releases. The entire thing comes from the version of the movie included in Mill Creek Entertainment's 50 Family Movies DVD set, with the exception of about the first five seconds of the first track, which required audio from the Diamond Entertainment release. Although Mill Creek's version's sound mix was far less shrill, the MGM logo, and therefore the music from it, was cut off in this version, but it's present in the Diamond Entertainment release, which has a more shrill and nasty sound mix. The mix of those first few seconds from one release into the rest of the audio from the other release is seamless, fortunately.

vie career was released by Rhino in 1998 and at the time of its release included many tracks that had never been available on CD, and a few that had never even had a legitimate release, such as The Texas Tornado from her first film, 1936's The Pigskin Parade. The CD opens with The Texas Tornado and closes with the title track from her final film, 1963's I Could Go On Singing and includes tracks from The Wizard of Oz, Meet Me In St. Louis, A Star Is Born, and Gay Purr-ee, among others. Many of these soundtracks have seen release on CD, many from Rhino, since this CD's release but it's still the best source for several songs such as Look For The Silver Lining from Till The Clouds Roll By and the film version of Dear Mr. Gable/You Made Me Love You.

ABOUT THE DISC & RECORDINGS (Source)
Judy's final film performance features one of her best on-screen portrayals, playing an American concert performer very much like her real self. Her old friends and songwriters E.Y "Yip" Harburg and Harold Arlen wrote the title song.
A note about "It Never Was You": The version heard on this album is actually an alternate take of the performance as recorded live on the set with David Lee at the piano. A studio version recorded for the film, with orchestrations by Mort Lindsey, was released in 2006 on the Capitol CD "The Essential Judy Garland".

There IS a Judy connection here. She was originally set to star in Jane Powell's role in the film. However, she was fired from the film before she shot any scenes or recorded any scenes.R>
This particular soundtrack is ripped from two different cheap DVD releases. The entire thing comes from the version of the movie included in Mill Creek Entertainment's 50 Family Movies DVD set, with the exception of about the first five seconds of the first track, which required audio from the Diamond Entertainment release. Although Mill Creek's version's sound mix was far less shrill, the MGM logo, and therefore the music from it, was cut off in this version, but it's present in the Diamond Entertainment release, which has a more shrill and nasty sound mix. The mix of those first few seconds from one release into the rest of the audio from the other release is seamless, fortunately.

ABOUT THE DISC & RECORDINGS (Source)
Judy's final film performance features one of her best on-screen portrayals, playing an American concert performer very much like her real self. Her old friends and songwriters E.Y "Yip" Harburg and Harold Arlen wrote the title song.
A note about "It Never Was You": The version heard on this album is actually an alternate take of the performance as recorded live on the set with David Lee at the piano. A studio version recorded for the film, with orchestrations by Mort Lindsey, was released in 2006 on the Capitol CD "The Essential Judy Garland".
-----------------------------
This rip comes from the 2002 Capitol Special Products CD release of her 1960 studio album That's Entertainment! and the soundtrack to her final film performance, I Could Go On Singing. Two other two-fers released in 2002 include Miss Show Business (1955)/Judy (1956) and Judy In Love (1958)/Alone (1957).
1959's The Letter remained her only studio album not to see the light of day on CD, save for two tracks on the 2002 Capitol Records compilation Classic Judy Garland: The Capitol Years 1955-1965, until DRG Records and EMI released it, digitally remastered with bonus tracks.

ABOUT THE DISC & RECORDINGS (Source)
Judy's final film performance features one of her best on-screen portrayals, playing an American concert performer very much like her real self. Her old friends and songwriters E.Y "Yip" Harburg and Harold Arlen wrote the title song.
A note about "It Never Was You": The version heard on this album is actually an alternate take of the performance as recorded live on the set with David Lee at the piano. A studio version recorded for the film, with orchestrations by Mort Lindsey, was released in 2006 on the Capitol CD "The Essential Judy Garland".
-----------------------------
This rip comes from the 2002 Capitol Special Products CD release of her 1960 studio album That's Entertainment! and the soundtrack to her final film performance, I Could Go On Singing. Two other two-fers released in 2002 include Miss Show Business (1955)/Judy (1956) and Judy In Love (1958)/Alone (1957).
1959's The Letter remained her only studio album not to see the light of day on CD, save for two tracks on the 2002 Capitol Records compilation Classic Judy Garland: The Capitol Years 1955-1965, until DRG Records and EMI released it, digitally remastered with bonus tracks.

There IS a Judy connection here. She was originally set to star in Jane Powell's role in the film. However, she was fired from the film before she shot any scenes or recorded any scenes.R>
This particular soundtrack is ripped from two different cheap DVD releases. The entire thing comes from the version of the movie included in Mill Creek Entertainment's 50 Family Movies DVD set, with the exception of about the first five seconds of the first track, which required audio from the Diamond Entertainment release. Although Mill Creek's version's sound mix was far less shrill, the MGM logo, and therefore the music from it, was cut off in this version, but it's present in the Diamond Entertainment release, which has a more shrill and nasty sound mix. The mix of those first few seconds from one release into the rest of the audio from the other release is seamless, fortunately.
