Man of La Mancha, the show that introduced "The Impossible Dream" to the world (and lounge singers everywhere), was the hit of the 1965 Broadway season. Richard Kiley is magnificent in his career-defining performance as the deluded wannabe knight Don Quixote. His leading lad Joan Diener sings the role of the kitchen wench Aldonza with just the right balance of dignity and vulgarity. Irving Jacobson turns in a fine comic performance as the Don's faithful squire, Sancho Panza. The score, with music by Mitch Leigh and lyrics by Joe Darion, was revolutionary in its time. The orchestra had no violins--just brass, woodwinds, percussion, and flamenco guitars. Man of La Mancha is one of Broadway's most inspiring musicals and it well deserves its high reputation. --Michael Simmons

3 out of 5 stars Check out Other Versions. Don't be swayed by Others' Reviews........2007-06-09

I've never seen this show on stage and my first exposure to the music was the Sony CD Man of La Mancha featuring Placido Domingo, Pandy Patankin, and Julia Migenes-Johnson. Despite lackluster reviews of the disk, I enjoy it, and when I saw this version at a second hand book/music store, I decided check it out too. My initial impression was that the Sony version was the better disk but decided to compare both versions by setting up a playlist in Media Player, playing tracks from both version back-to-back.

After that test, I have to agree with the reviews here that Richard Kiley is the superior Don Quixote. Domingo's voice is, of course wonderful, but Kiley acts the role better on the CD and Domingo's accent is a major distraction.

In the role of Aldonza - no contest. Julia Mingenes-Johnson's singing and performance on the Sony version is far superior to Joan Diener's. I didn't have to hear the tracks back-to-back to realize that. Ms. Diener's performance just grated on my ears from the beginning.

Bucking the crowd, I prefer Mandy Patankin's Sancho (Sony version) to Irving Jacobson's. I may be biased, having had more exposure to the Sony version, but Patankin seemed to be trying to inject a bit more feeling into the character. Jacobson, singing in an annoying, scratchy voice, came across almost like a cartoon trying to fit in among live characters. It seems like most people either like Patankin or hate him. Guess I'm one of the former.

The Orchestration does seem brighter/clearer in this version compared to the Sony version, but, in general, the tempo on most tracks seems slower than the same tracks on the Sony version. I preferred the up-tempo, Sony versions of "The Barber Song", "Little Bird, Little Bird", "The Dubbing" and "A Little Gossip".

In Summary: For Kiley's Don Quixote, you'll probably want this version, but for tracks featuring Aldonza (and maybe Sancho) you'll want to check out the Sony version. Since I have both disks, I will probably come up with a mix of my favorite tracks, in general, favoring the Sony disk but substituting the tracks that feature Richard Kiley's Don Quixote where I can.

5 out of 5 stars beautiful music for a haunting story............2007-06-07

I remember reading excerpts from Cervantes' DON QUIXOTE, as a Spanish student, way back in junior high school. The saga of the madman fighting windmills and pursuing his illusions [and delusions] was very sad, but very romantic at the same time. When the musical adaptation, MAN OF LA MANCHA, was brought to the stage in 1965, Richard Kiley (as the title character, Don Quixote) absolutely transfixed the audience with his sensitively heartfelt portrayal of the tragic madman. The plight of Don Quixote, who travels on horseback, with his faithful companion, Sancho Panza (Irving Jacobson), and absolutely lovestruck by kitched wench Aldonza (Joan Denier), is alternately pathetic and profound. Perhaps one of the best known (and most remade) songs in the repertoire from LA MANCHA, is "The Impossible Dream." Richard Kiley really make it his own, here, and after you hear his version, it's hard to listen to others' versions of it. It's just not the same. Though, this story is anything but joyful, the music will glide through your ears and carry you on a surrealistic journey through attempted triumph and (ultimately) tragedy.

5 out of 5 stars Don Quixote.......2006-09-14

Back in High School my band leader, Mr. DeYoung, decided (agianst much opposition from those of us in the band let me tell you) to have us perform select pieces from this musical

I hated the idea. But when we began to play, he even had us watch the musical, I fell in love with the melody. The many songs of a man who believes the best in the world. YOu find that in Dulcinea, The Impossible Dream, etc.

From one maginificently rendered song to another, you can be lost in its melodic elegance.

My favorite song is the initial rendition of 'Little Bird, Little Bird'. It's a soft song, sung as a love ballad. In the musical you discover it's being sung to a local whore by a bunch of randy men. Despite that, I still like it.

This along with others are among the great works of the stage!

Golden Boy already had quite a showbiz legacy by the time this 1964 Broadway musical debuted. Clifford Odets's heavy drama was originally produced (sans music) in 1937 as part of New York's Group Theater, featuring in its cast, among others, Lee J. Cobb, Elia Kazan, and Francis Farmer; John Garfield starred in a 1952 Broadway revival of Golden Boy, while the film version was what turned William Holden (in the title role) into a star. Sammy Davis Jr. was already a star--the Rat Pack was in full bloom--when he made his Broadway musical debut as the title character in the Charles Strouse-Lee Adams transformation of Odets's original play, directed by soon-to-be-great film director Arthur Penn, no less. Davis's presence added a racial theme to this story of a prize boxer, addressed in such songs as "Colorful." Unfortunately, the Strouse-Lee score isn't nearly as impressive as their earlier Bye Bye Birdie--no standards were created here--although the fine "Gimme Some," with its rock & roll progression, could have been an outtake from that show. And "Don't Forget 127th St." is the kind of grand production number Broadway rarely delivers anymore. Sammy, meanwhile, is in full, uh, Sammy glory here, and a few of these songs were part of his nightclub repertoire during the mid-'60s. His fans will undoubtedly cheer this remastered rerelease on CD at last. --Bill Holdship

4 out of 5 stars Tour-de-force for Sammy Davis, Jr. -- Strouse & Adams Score.......2006-08-12

NOTE: The following review, with a couple of small edits, was posted on July 12, 2004, before DRG reissued this recording.

Having noticed that GOLDEN BOY had been discontinued and that a hole existed in my collection between GOLDEN APPLE and GOLDEN RAINBOW, I ordered a used copy to fill the gap. Based on prior reviews, I was prepared for a so-so Strouse & Adams score, so I was pleasantly surprised when I finally heard it. Frankly, I think that GOLDEN BOY is one of the strongest scores by the prolific team responsible for BYE, BYE BIRDIE; ALL AMERICAN; IT'S A BIRD. . . IT'S A PLANE. . . IT'S SUPERMAN!; APPLAUSE; ANNIE.

Originally released on a Capitol LP, this 1999 remaster on Razor & Tie (a division of EMI) definitely deserves to remain in the catalogue. Documenting the talents of Sammy Davis, Jr. and the great Billy Daniels, the score is considerably better that those for APPLAUSE and IT'S A BIRD. . . IT'S A PLANE. . . IT'S SUPERMAN!, both still in circulation. The subtle references to poverty and race in "Night Song" and not-too-subtle ones in "Colorful" and "Don't Forget 127th St." are lyricist Lee Adams in his prime. Charles Strouse's melodies are also fine.

Although 1962's NO STRINGS featured inter-racial leads, GOLDEN BOY was the first Broadway musical to make a real issue of race differences. And as liberal-minded as many of us claim to be, I'd venture there were many theatre goers shocked to see a black man (Davis) romance a white woman (Paula Wayne) on stage. With the proper cast and a little updating, GOLDEN BOY could probably do well on Broadway today. The themes and issues are still relevant, although the male lead probably would have to become a basketball player or hip-hop artist.

GOLDEN BOY is not a great show, but it has a lot to recommend it. Let's hope that DRG or Fynsworth Alley decides to resurrect it. I'd advise anyone interested in the history of Broadway musicals to snap up the remaining copies ASAP. (see note)

P.S. A minor correction to Amazon's editorial review: Bill Holdship states that Sammy Davis, Jr. made his Broadway debut in GOLDEN BOY. Not so. It was MR. WONDERFUL in 1957.

NOTE (1/12/06) ---- DRG's reissue is due on February 7. Get it!

5 out of 5 stars One of my favorite scores- breathtaking!.......2006-08-11

The score for Golden Boy written by Charles Strouse and Lee Adams is neglected. It's quite sad that it is because the entire piece is so brilliant. Strouse's music is filled with urban jazz flavored pieces that are wonderful. Adams' lyrics are sharp, sardonic and sometimes even touching.
Sammy Davis Jr. gives a performance that deserved to be be legendary. The rest of the cast is top notch as well. Billy Daniels shines in my favorite song, "While the City Sleeps."
It was the year of Fiddler on the Roof, everyone was thrilled and exited with Fiddler. Although Fiddler on the Roof is excellent and a classic, Golden Boy is my kind of show and in my opinion...better.

4 out of 5 stars Re-recorded versions of some songs on this CD.......2006-03-17

GOLDEN BOY was a 1964 Broadway musical starring Sammy Davis Jr. It was edgy and dramatic and despite some turmoil during the out-of-town try-out, it came into New York in good shape and was greeted by strong reviews.

Capitol taped the cast album a few days after the opening. But Sammy Davis has been experiences bought of laryngitis and felt his vocal performance sounded raspy. (It does, but it serves the gritty material well.) SO, some months later he persuaded Capitol to let him re-record his tracks. The newer versions reveal a smoother voice but he takes many liberties with the vocal lines adding stylizations that were not part of the original score. The remixed LP was issued (with a different cover art) and reissued again in 1977.

There have been 4 CD releases of this title. The first on Bay Cities had only a short catalogue life. EMI's release in their Broadway Angel series of Broadway classics lasted a little longer (and had excellent liner notes in the booklet.) Razor&Tie did a cheap re-release and now it's back on DRG. All 4 CD editions use the re-mixed LP master. A shame no one thought to include the original tracks even if they have to be dubbed from an LP (the master tapes were said to be destroyed.)

The re-recorded songs are: Night song, Gimme Some, Stick Around, I Wanna Be With You, and Can't You See it. Also the re-mix uses "The Fight" as the Final Track (A ballet fight scene with mostly rhythm accompaniment) whereas the original LP included a dramatic and moving reprise of "Gimme some." Collectors should watch for the original LP in used record stores to hear the full score.

Still, this is one of the best and most under-rated scores by Charles Strouse and Lee Adams. Billie Daniels has a great number "While the City Sleeps" and shares the spotlight with Davis in "This is the Life." Even with the inferior second takes, "Night Song" and "I wanna Be with You" remain powerful.

It is a score that improves with each listen, and a shame it remains so little known.

5 out of 5 stars Not quite complete.......2006-03-04

Although I applaud this reissue (I have a similar reissue from Bay Cities about ten years old), this is not identical to Capitol Orignal Cast album. Instead of ending with "The Fight", the LP ended with an Epilogue that told us what happened to the Davis character (he was killed in a car accident). Although it was short, it was a very moving ending to a very good show.

5 out of 5 stars SAMMY DAVIS JR. AND BILLY DANIELS AT THEIR GOLDEN BEST.......2006-02-27

Sammy Davis Jr. starred in this musicalization of the Clifford Odets play about (among other things) a black prizefighter and his white gal pal. (The on-stage kiss between Sammy and co-star Paula Wayne is still talked about; many 1964 audiences left the theater in shock. One fan of the show was Martin Luther King Jr., who praised the show's message.) Long out of print, DRG has reissued the heavily infused jazz score by Lee Adams and Charles Strouse, and it sounds fresh and vibrant as if it were recorded yesterday. Many of the tunes became Davis nightclub favorites, but too often long-forgotten co-star Billy Daniels is overlooked for his mesmerizing performance and stunning voice. A knock-out for the true theater buff of a lost gem as sterling as it is Golden.

4 out of 5 stars NOT A KNOCKOUT BUT A TKO.......2005-07-10

GOLDEN BOY ON ITS' ORIGINAL RELEASE ON VINYL IN 1964 WAS A RAW AND EMOTIONALLY POWERFUL SCORE. SAMMY DAVIS WAS EXHAUSTED AND HIS THROAT WAS ROUGH FROM MONTHS OF REHEARSING,SINGING,LEARNING NEW LINES AND SONGS AND AS A RESULT HIS VOICE WAS STRONG BUT RASPY ON THE ORIGINAL RECORDING. THIS WORKED PERFECTLY ON THE ANGRY AND BITTER 'NIGHT SONG' AND THE PENT-UP ANGER AND FRUSTRATION OF HIS CHARACTER CAME THROUGH-BUT MR DAVIS WAS NOT HAPPY WITH THE RECORDED RESULTS AND RE-RECORDED SOME OF HIS TRACKS INCLUDING THE AFORE-MENTIONED 'NIGHT SONG'-THE STING HAS NOW AND FOREVER BEEN REMOVED FROM THIS SONG IN THE CD REISSUE AND IN ITS PLACE IS A POP SONG. A CRYING SHAME BUT THE ALBUM IS BRILLIANT AND WORTHY AND NUMBERS SUCH AS 'GIMME SOME' 'COLORFUL' 'EVERYTHING'S GREAT' 'THIS IS THE LIFE' AND THE ROUSING 'NO MORE' STILL CRACKLE AND SIZZLE AND 'GOLDEN BOY' AND ESPECIALLY 'I WANNA BE WITH YOU' ARE A COUPLE OF BEAUTYS.

P.S. 'I WANNA BE WITH YOU' WAS ALSO ONE OF THE RE-RECORDED TRACKS BUT WAS NOT DIMINISHED IN ITS' POWER AS WAS 'NIGHT SONG' THIS CD IS A MUST FOR AVID SHOW COLLECTORS AS THE WEAK BOOK PRECLUDES ANY REVIVALS-AND I RATE THIS AS A TKO BECAUSE SAMMY DAVIS SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN SO FUSSY AS HIS RASPY DELIVERY WAS STILL BRILLIANT.

4 out of 5 stars A Forgotten Classic.......2005-06-09

One of Strouse's best scores. This show supposedly had horrendous book trouble, but it is not in evidence on this recording. Only this score gives a hint of what strouse would later be capable of in RAGS. I want to Be With You, NightSong, While the City Sleeps, Lorna's Here and No More are brilliantly dark numbers conveying the story of a love doomed to fail. It's a shame this recording uses The Fight as the finale instead of Joe's Death. Both were recorded and Joe's Death only appeared on a short lived re-issue of the LP. This recording deserves to remain in circulation and the show would be a welcome addition to Broadway Encores.

4 out of 5 stars tour de force for Sammy Davis Jr........2002-11-13

If you like Sammy Davis, Jr., you'll almost certainly enjoy this album; if you're a fan of musicals, it's a little more problematical. There are some good songs here, but none that became standards. At least two that I know of, "Gimme Some" and "This is the Life" were covered by other singers, and Davis added "I Want to Be With You" and "Night Song" to his own repertoire, and made more commercial recordings of those two songs elsewhere. "Night Song" is one of my favorite songs - a sort of impressionistic portrait of a city at night and a young man yearning to find his place in the world. But with the very notable exception of "While the City Sleeps," Davis gets all the good songs. Or it might be the songs are not all that great, but Davis performs them brilliantly; you'll have to make that call.

One of the things I really like about this score are all the period references. Since it was supposed to take place in contemporary 1964, there are references to bossa nova music, Ray Charles, Adam Clayton Powell, and even Dean Martin. Interesting to think of a young black boxer mentioning Dean Martin in a song. How times have changed.

Anyway, since buying this a couple years ago, I've listened to it a lot - and you probably will too if you're a fan of Sammy Davis. If not, then you pays your money and you takes your chances.

5 out of 5 stars What a score - brilliant!.......2001-07-14

At first - I must admit - listening to the selected parts on the amazon page I was wildly disapointed because there didn`t seem to be anything melodic on it. And it didn`t sound like a Strouse score but then I got to know it better by playing it myself on the piano and I was overwhelmed by the beauty of these melodies. Don`t trust these few selections presented on amazon. No doubt, this is not "Annie" or "Bye Bye Birdie" but it is brilliant in its very own way.

4 out of 5 stars Sammy Davis Jr. in musical GOLDEN BOY.......2004-02-09

This 1964 show has a very fine score by Charles Strouse and Lee Adams...a much darker score than is usual for this team. The original Capitol Lp was withdrawn and re-released with some of the tracks re-recorded by Sammy Davis who was in poor voice when the original album sessions were held. Also the re-release has "The Fight" (essentially a dance number) instead of the actual show finale used on the first release. It is the 2nd album that has served for all 3 CD releases. (Apparently the master tapes for the originals are long gone.)

The re-recorded songs are: "Night Song", "Stick Around", "I Want To Be With you", and "Can't You See it."

Even with the re-recorded tracks this album is well worth having. One of the best tracks, however, is Billie Daniel's song "While the City Sleeps."

5 out of 5 stars One of the finest Broadway soundtacks of the '60s........2003-07-04

Sammy Davis Jr.,Paula Wayne,Billy Daniels and the ensemble combine to deliver an entertaining remake of the classic story. This one had breakthrough lyrics related to the sensitive black/white relationship at the heart of the story. My favorites are 'I want to be with you,' and the light-hearted '127th Street,' although 'No More' deserves to rank with 'We Shall Overcome' in the annals of up-by-the-boot-straps spirituals. Some of the lyrics dealing with the icons of 1964 are amusing in retrospect, but the music holds up well from a distance of nearly 40 years. Onward.
