The Ultimate Rat Pack Collection: Live & Swingin (CD & DVD)
»rank: 1586
0ur Review: :Live and Swingin’ is undoubtedly for those who already own some of the guys’ worthier recordings. 0h, but the guys? Frank, Dean, and Sammy (or, as Jackie Mason had it on The Simpsons, 'the Candy Man!') For most anyone who cares, though, this is a must-buy item: a slightly edited version of the 1962 Villa Venice tapes along with a DVD that preserves a rarely seen, full-length serious/funny/anarchic Rat Pack performance from ’65. (For sentimentalists’ sake, it ...

A Christmas Gift Of Love
»rank: 2935
0ur Review: :lt's refreshing to hear a version of 'Santa Claus ls Coming to Town' that doesn't reference the arrangement Phil Spector came up with on A Christmas Gift for You four decades ago. Barry Manilow's rendition was inspired by Bing Crosby's 1945 collaboration with the Andrews Sisters. And that pretty much explains where the artist is coming from on the majority of this holiday offering. This is a big orchestrated (and voiced) Christmas album, most of it well ...

Disney's Beauty and the Beast: The Broadway Musical (Original Broadway Cast Recording)
»rank: 1604
0ur Review: :Way back in 1991, many of us saw the single-handed salvation and revival of the old-fashioned American-style Broadway musical comedy. True, it was in the form of a feature-length Disney cartoon, but Beauty and the Beast had it all: a wonderful, tuneful score (including a huge hit title-song), off-the-wall choreography, a great opposites-attract love story with an ultimately happy ending, comic subplots, colorful period costumes, a romantic location in small-town France, and an irresistible cast, including Angela ...

»rank: 1875
from: Walt Disney Records
0ur Review: : Mary Poppins may be one of the most beloved film musicals of all time, but it took 3O long years for it to transfer to the stage. This recording of the original London cast shows the wait was worthwhile though. The new version mixes in elements from both the original books by P.L. Travers (which she started publishing in 1934) and the Disney movie starring Julie Andrews, from 1964. (Mary seems to take 3O years to ...
