Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
This early '50s Disney classic had it all: class confrontation (purebred meets mutt), memorable songs (by Sonny Burke and Peggy Lee), and an unusually truthful view of household creatures (dogs are good, cats are bad). "The Siamese Cat Song" shimmers with the mock Orientalism of classic Exotica--enhanced by Lee's double-tracked evocation of barely domesticated evil. Producer Randy Thornton deserves credit for piecing together Oliver Wallace's myriad cues into a reasonably cohesive musical work, but the handful of Peggy Lee tracks are the real treasure. Whether fronting a choir of howling dogs on "He's a Tramp" or employing that oddly dispassionate "Is That All There Is" voice on "What Is a Baby," it's Lee who, a half century later, still commands the spotlight. --Bill Forman

The "Golden Age" referred to here spans The Jazz Singer and the advent of the talkies to the death throes of the old studio system in the 1960s. So vast was the era's musical landscape that even this 42-track, double-disc anthology can't encompass all its peaks. Not surprisingly, the bulk of this collection originated with the Tiffany's of the screen musical, M-G-M, a body of work whose riches here encompass both pop-cultural bedrock ("Over the Rainbow," "Singin' in the Rain," "There's No Business Like Show Business," etc.) and some less familiar, if equally delightful star turns: Clark Gable gamely "Puttin' On the Ritz"; the sassy, 1948 original of "The Lady Is a Tramp" by Lena Horne; and a loopy duet of "Baby, It's Cold Outside" by Esther Williams and Ricardo Montalban. Fred Astaire's elegant, epochal reign at RKO and M-G-M is represented by "Night and Day," "Let's Face the Music and Dance," and three others, while Metro mainstays Gene Kelly and Judy Garland share equal time and billing. It's not perfect--Cagney's "Yankee Doodle Boy" and/or some Sinatra seem more logical choices than the odd "bonus" duet of Casablanca's "As Time Goes By" and "Lara's Theme" from Dr. Zhivago that close out disc one--but it's a stunning, surprisingly comprehensive primer on the Hollywood film musical nonetheless. --Jerry McCulley

5 out of 5 stars They were right--there is NO business like the show business they did way back when !!!.......2006-11-18

Everything that happens in life
Can happen in a show
You can make 'em laugh
You can make 'em cry
Anything
Anything can go....

The clown with his pants falling down
Or the dance that's a dream of romance
Or the scene where the villain is mean
That's entertainment!

The lights on the lady in tights
Or the bride with the guy on the side
Or the ball where she gives him her all
That's entertainment!

The plot and the hot simply teeming with $ex
A gay divorcee who is after her ex
It could be Oedipus Rex
Where a chap kills his father
And causes a lot of bother

The clerk who is thrown out of work
By the boss who is thrown for a loss
By the skirt who is doing him dirt

The world is a stage,
The stage is a world of entertainment!

This two CD set amply proves that the musical melodies and lyrics from the golden age of the Hollywood musical remain unsurpassed to this day. This generous two CD set offers 42 incredible songs from Hollywood classic musicals. Most of these fine numbers are indeed from MGM, as Amazon correctly notes; but there are some RKO numbers and even a little from Warner Brothers. Thank goodness, though, that most of these songs came from MGM movies; MGM was the only studio that could boast that it truly had "more stars than there are in the heavens."

I love so many songs on these two CDs. Of course, there's the unforgettable classic "Over The Rainbow" sung by Judy Garland; she also performs "Easter Parade" and "Get Happy" on this two CD set and she carries most of the tune for "I Got Rhythm" even though Mickey Rooney helps her a little. I love "Baby, It's Cold Outside" for its' romantic overtones; and Lena Horne's "The Lady Is A Tramp" is flawless! We also get a rare chance to hear Clark Gable sing in "Puttin' On The Ritz;" and Bing Crosby's "Going Hollywood" may be brief but it's a fun song anyway.

There are two "bonus" tracks on the first CD: "As Time Goes By" from Casablanca and "Lara's Theme" from Doctor Zhivago. "As Time Goes By" is a good choice; it is another unsurpassed classic song that brings back memories and touches even the hardest of hearts. "Lara's Theme," however, is from the mid 1960s and I don't consider this period to be part of the "golden age" of Hollywood musicals.

The liner notes are excellent and they offer wonderful photos of the stars as well. The cover art is well done and the reverse cover art tells which movie each song is from and who is performing each song. Moreover, the quality of the sound is excellent especially when you consider that these numbers were recorded quite a few decades ago.

In short, this superlative two CD highlights the glory of the Hollywood musical when a certain type of sophistication dominated professional movie production. I highly recommend this CD for fans of Hollywood musicals, classic pop vocals and fans of the artists and actors who perform on this two CD set.

5 out of 5 stars One of the best cds I ever bought. .......2006-06-07

What an amazon collection of songs! This is bar none my favorite cd just because of the variety and the quality of songs on it. I love music from this era, and this cd is the perfect companion to my life. Love it! Buy it, you won't regret it for a moment!

1 out of 5 stars Never Sounded Better.......2006-03-16

Apart from the great selection of soundtracks, what really makes this compilation top value is the quality of the sound processing. Executed with finesse, these tracks sound better than when first issued and many are unedited, fuller versions: like "Singing In The Rain", for example. Throw in the great price, and this double disc set is a "must have" for all lovers of classic movie music.

It was once said by the songwriters of that era - "There are two artists you want perform your songs on the big screen, they are Fred Astaire and Judy Garland they sing it just the way we wrote it, for which you will have a guaranteed hit on your hands"...well, this collections certainly has some merit to that statement...because with Judy Garland and Fred Astaire performing seven songs each, there must be something to it.

This collection of musicals still has the magic that we remember from those bygone years...but as long as we have the labels and networks who play and show these wonderful films of yesteryear, they will never be forgotten...hats off to Rhino Records, George Feltenstein (producer) and Doug Schwartz (engineer) and Turner Classic Movies for sharing those 42 selections from 42 films...celebrating decades of the tunes and artists that gave it their all...from what it commonly called "The Hollywood Dream Factory"...The Golden Age of Hollywood Musicals is still among us...gotta love it!

5 out of 5 stars By far one of the best classic Disney soundtracks.......2002-01-16

This was the first classic Disney soundtrack I purchased and it is really able to hold its own against all the other soundtracks in this series. The score takes on a much more lightly mature tone than that of the other scores (except for maybe Bambi, which still is a bit more heavy handed.) The music very much reflects the laid back yet intent way the story is styled in the actual film. There is a lot of score to listen to, but it all flows together and each piece still retains its own individuality. And, as always, "He's A Tramp" is just as irresistable as it was when the film first premiered over 40 years ago. A lush yet down to earth soundtrack make this a vital and highly enjoyable addition to any Disney music collection!

5 out of 5 stars best ever.......2001-02-20

my three year old daughter has watched the movie over 100 times and was thrilled to hear the music in the car. thanks so much!!!

    Amazon.com essential recording

    This soundtrack features many fine voices and is generous with the film's background music, but at its heart Lady and the Tramp is a showcase for the incomparable Peggy Lee, who wrote and performed several of the movie's best songs. Her vocal turn as the sexy but rundown street dog on "He's a Tramp" redefines the word showstopper, but even better is the slinky "Siamese Cat Song." It's both a duet (Lee sings the parts of both Si and Am) and a deadpan work of veterinary psychology. The kids will be humming it for weeks. So will you. --John Sanchez

    5 out of 5 stars Classic Disney. Classic Lee........1999-05-01

    Make no mistake about it Miss Peggy Lee is one of the finest singer-songwriters this country has ever known! Without Peggy Lee there would be no "Lady and the Tramp". Not only is this a shining example of her abilities as a lyricist it is also a tribute to her talents as a vocal actress ... no one else in the history of animated films supplied so many voices to one feature. She is both Si and Am ("We Are Siamese"), Peg ("He's A Tramp") and Darling ("La La Lu"). Listen very carefully to the opening song "Silent Night" underneath the familiar song is a counter-melody written by Sonny Burke with lyrics by Peggy ("Silent as a snowflake in the night ..."), it is sheer musical genius!

    Sincere-Lee,

    4 out of 5 stars The soundtrack is lovely, but the full songs were better........1999-03-26

    Lady and the Tramp has always been one of my favorite Disney movies. The musical score for this animated great is simply wonderful. I was excited to see Disney re-release the soundtrack, and snapped up a copy as soon as I could. The sound was as wonderful as I remembered, except for one thing...the CD has only the clipped parts of the songs that were in the movie, not the whole songs as originally recorded. I had a record as a child that had the full songs (and how I wish I'd kept it!), and that was what I was expecting to find on the CD. I'm still so disappointed to not hear the full effects of the almost heart-breaking "What Is a Baby?" and the beautiful, haunting "La La Lu". I have a baby of my own now, and the songs I sing to him as I rock him to sleep are these two, as best as I can remember them from my own childhood, not as the abbreviated versions on this CD.

    5 out of 5 stars Charming, Romantic and Wonderfully Composed.......1998-11-28

    You will be child again with this wonderful, romantic, and charming soundtrack of one of Disney's masterpieces. I simply adore this score. The songs are just perfect! "Bella Notte" captures the magic of Christmas time, but, anyway, it is a song to be heard all year long. And it is even better when sung and played by the chorus as a background for the two dogs in love. Miss Peggy Lee is a gift from heaven, delivering all her talent throughout the disc. Also, the talents of Oliver Wallace and Sony Burke make this score a truly jewel in the Disney crown. And don't you ever think of missing "Home Sweet Home"!

      Amazon.com essential recording

      This soundtrack features many fine voices and is generous with the film's background music, but at its heart Lady and the Tramp is a showcase for the incomparable Peggy Lee, who wrote and performed several of the movie's best songs. Her vocal turn as the sexy but rundown street dog on "He's a Tramp" redefines the word showstopper, but even better is the slinky "Siamese Cat Song." It's both a duet (Lee sings the parts of both Si and Am) and a deadpan work of veterinary psychology. The kids will be humming it for weeks. So will you. --John Sanchez

      5 out of 5 stars Classic Disney. Classic Lee........1999-05-01

      Make no mistake about it Miss Peggy Lee is one of the finest singer-songwriters this country has ever known! Without Peggy Lee there would be no "Lady and the Tramp". Not only is this a shining example of her abilities as a lyricist it is also a tribute to her talents as a vocal actress ... no one else in the history of animated films supplied so many voices to one feature. She is both Si and Am ("We Are Siamese"), Peg ("He's A Tramp") and Darling ("La La Lu"). Listen very carefully to the opening song "Silent Night" underneath the familiar song is a counter-melody written by Sonny Burke with lyrics by Peggy ("Silent as a snowflake in the night ..."), it is sheer musical genius!

      Sincere-Lee,

      4 out of 5 stars The soundtrack is lovely, but the full songs were better........1999-03-26

      Lady and the Tramp has always been one of my favorite Disney movies. The musical score for this animated great is simply wonderful. I was excited to see Disney re-release the soundtrack, and snapped up a copy as soon as I could. The sound was as wonderful as I remembered, except for one thing...the CD has only the clipped parts of the songs that were in the movie, not the whole songs as originally recorded. I had a record as a child that had the full songs (and how I wish I'd kept it!), and that was what I was expecting to find on the CD. I'm still so disappointed to not hear the full effects of the almost heart-breaking "What Is a Baby?" and the beautiful, haunting "La La Lu". I have a baby of my own now, and the songs I sing to him as I rock him to sleep are these two, as best as I can remember them from my own childhood, not as the abbreviated versions on this CD.

      5 out of 5 stars Charming, Romantic and Wonderfully Composed.......1998-11-28

      You will be child again with this wonderful, romantic, and charming soundtrack of one of Disney's masterpieces. I simply adore this score. The songs are just perfect! "Bella Notte" captures the magic of Christmas time, but, anyway, it is a song to be heard all year long. And it is even better when sung and played by the chorus as a background for the two dogs in love. Miss Peggy Lee is a gift from heaven, delivering all her talent throughout the disc. Also, the talents of Oliver Wallace and Sony Burke make this score a truly jewel in the Disney crown. And don't you ever think of missing "Home Sweet Home"!
