Thank You             The Sound of Music (1959 Original Broadway Cast)37 reviews Richard Rodgers, Oscar Hammerstein II, ... Sony, 1998 A fine alternative to the usual Some might forget that The Sound of Music existed before the film starring Julie Andrews, among others, was made. This is a recording of the music from the Broadway musical with the original Broadway cast, starring Mary Martin. Perhaps not for everyone, it offer the careful listener a interesting and pleasing alternative of the music of the movie that many have come to love.             The Best of Bobby Rydell: Cameo Parkway 1959-196423 reviews Bobby Rydell Abkco, 2005 Take me back to the good ole days One of the best cd's I've bought in quite awhile.

Decca U.S., 1993 Perfect. The CD is everything I expected. It's great to hear Carol Burnett as Princess Winnifred. I do wish, however, that the CD included the song "The Minstrel, the Jester, and I". The song is in the musical, but not on this CD. It's the only one, though, that's missing. Overall a great product!             Hellooo Baby!: The Best of the Big Bopper, 1954-195910 reviews The Big Bopper Rhino / Wea, 1990 The Bopper lives! On the anniversary of J.P. Richardson's tragic death, I wrote a piece for The Bopper's hometown newspaper, the Beaumont (TX) Enterprise, about his life, his family and his legacy. These songs are an excellent starting place to learning more about the Bopper -- Richardson's jive-talking, flamboyant alter ego. And if this album gets you more interested in The Bopper's short life (he was only 28 ...             The Best of Chubby Checker: Cameo Parkway 1959-196310 reviews Chubby Checker Abkco, 2005 I dig it, Chubby !!! The Best of Chubby Checker: Cameo Parkway 1959-1963 gives us exactly that: the best music by Chubby Checker on Cameo Parkway records from 1959 to 1963. Chubby Checker made music fun; you could dance to his music and have a great time dancing to the "Limbo Rock" over and over again. Chubby always managed to sound so energetic, new and fresh when he sang; and just one listen proves it. The quality ...             Hitsville USA, Vol. 1: The Motown Singles Collection 1959-197165 reviews Various Artists Motown, 1992 very good Very good except that I received 2 item from two different sources !)8/18 2) 8/19 I wish to return the second but it did not have a return label, please advise and credit my account at once.

Sony, 1998 Precise, pointed and peerless !!! One listen to the London original cast recording of My Fair Lady and you know why this CD still sells. Despite the decades, the recording sounds fresh, clear and crisp. There is no background noise on this CD! Moreover, the songs by Lerner and Loewe are brilliantly composed and the lyrics are clever, witty and poignant. This CD proves it. The CD opens with the overture to the musical stage ...             The Best of John Fahey 1959-19776 reviews John Fahey Takoma, 2002 Lively Acoustic Guitar Instrumentals John Fahey excels as performer and composer in this outstanding compilation of his distinctive brand of solo, finger-picked, steel strung acoustic guitar blues and folk. This well selected set covers a period when Fahey was really sharp and focused. Melodic, original, engaging solo instrumental pieces, played with attack and gusto - Fahey always thumb and finger picked a full loud sound ...             Little Mary Sunshine (1959 Original Off-Broadway Cast)8 reviews Rick Besoyan, Eileen Brennan, ... Drg, 2007 Brilliant Satire, Catchy Melodies, Funny as the Dickens Rick Besoyan's Little Mary Sunshine's songs brilliantly satirize earlier operettas and Broadway musicals--plus a ballet. Here's how: * The Forest Rangers - alludes to "heroic fighting team" songs, notably "The Mounties," from Rudolf Friml's Rose Marie; "Stout Hearted Men," from Sigmund Romberg's The New Moon; "The Riff Song," from Romberg's The Desert Song; "Song of the Vagabonds," from ...             The Birth Of Soul : The Complete Atlantic Rhythm & Blues Recordings, 1952-195922 reviews Ray Charles Atlantic / Wea, 1991 Soul Starts Here! Normally box sets are the audio equivalent of a Whitman's Sampler; there's a lot to choose from and you may not like everything in it, but that ain't this box set baby! Covering Brother Ray's tenure at Atlantic Records from 1952 to 1959 this box set encompasses most everything he recorded there and is pretty much the creation of soul music as we know it today. Here is Ray fusing R&B, gospel, ...             Saratoga (1959 Original Broadway Cast)10 reviews Harold Arlen, Johnny Mercer RCA Victor Broadway, 2000 Quite wonderful and a steal at $7.98 After listening to the preview and reading that Arlen & Mercer wrote the songs...I decided to invest $7.98. I relly like this CD. It is quite wonderful.             Gypsy-50th Anniversary Edition4 reviews Stephen Sondheim, Gypsy (50th Anniversary Edition) SONY CLASSICS, 2009 50 years later, this is still one of the best cast albums ever made! May 21, 1959 (exactly 50 years ago as I write this) Ethel Merman came charging down the aisle of the Broadway theater hollering "Sing Out Louise!" The opening night audience members were jolted out of their seats. GYPSY had arrived. How I wish I had been there that night, but I wasn't born yet. But I grew up with the cast album and it's still an essential disc for any musical theatre fan. ...             The Complete Stax-Volt Singles 1959-196824 reviews Various Artists Atlantic / Wea, 1991 With Motown , not instead of Along with Motown, Stax was home to the legends of soul. Sure the sets get weaker with volumes 2 and 3 , but how could you own one without the others. Even some of the worst tracks from Stax are 90 % better than what was played on the radio at the time.             Fiorello! (1959 Original Broadway Cast)17 reviews Jerry Bock, Patrick Wilson, ... Angel Records, 1993 Totally Enjoyable I first came across this wonderful play after having found a 33 1/3 record of it which I purchased at a garage sale. The record was in very poor shape with many scratches & crayon markings all across it. Never the less being a native New Yorker I thoroughly enjoyed the flavor of the New York political satire. I found it so familiar and pleasurable that I searched all over for a good copy ...             Best of Dinah Shore: The Capitol Recordings 1959-19622 reviews Dinah Shore EMI Import, 2007 DINAH DELIGHTS ON CAPITOL'S BEST! Dinah Shore's long recording career included a period with Capitol Records when she produced six acclaimed albums, with all having been previously issued in the UK by EMI as "2 on 1" CDs. It can therefore be argued this superb compilation of songs chosen from the same source is superfluous. However, in my opinion these selections will appeal to buyers who prefer variety rather than concept with ...              search for popular music 1915-1959, 1952-1959, 1954-1959, 1957-1959, 1959-1962, 1959-1963, 1959-1964, 1959-1965, 1959-1968, 1959-1971, 1959-1977, anniversary, atlantic, broadway, collection, complete, drifters, eleanora, fiorello, greatest, gypsy-50th, hitsville, mattress, off-broadway, original, recordings, saratoga, soundtrack, stax-volt, sunshine popular music:    Kindle - Amazon's New Wireless Reading Device This is the future of book reading.
