With its rich film catalog, Disney has a natural advantage when it comes to expanding into musical theater. But 1999's Tarzan wasn't the very best choice for a stage adaptation. Unlike, say, Beauty and the Beast, whose score was written by show-tune vets, Tarzan was associated with a musical-theater newbie, Phil Collins, who expanded his original score for the show, writing nine new numbers in addition to the five from the movie. But while he does come up with agreeable pop melodies (as, for instance, the hit "You'll Be in My Heart" and the new "Waiting for This Moment" and "For the First Time"), his greenness shows in the lyrics, which tend to spell things out way too much ("In learning you will teach/And in teaching you will learn," etc.) This CD certainly is kid-friendly, but unlike the best Disney material, it lacks that extra layer that would entice adults as well. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

5 out of 5 stars Fantastic.......2007-06-12

Every song is excellent. If you saw the play, this is a must have.

5 out of 5 stars Amazing.......2007-04-03

I'm hoping that someday there will be a touring company of Tarzan that will be coming to Chicago, so I wanted to have the Broadway cast recording so that I would know the songs that were added to the Broadway show to help expand the animated film. I know that the songs from the movie are amazing, and hopefully, so are the new ones. With Phil Collins doing the new songs for the Broadway show, it will be awesome.

5 out of 5 stars I LOVE this music.......2007-01-30

I was very excited to hear that "Tarzan," one of my favorite Disney movies was being made into a musical. Being a theatre major in school, I had to buy the soundtrack as soon as I found out. The music was beautifully written, the singers all sound wonderful, and frankly, I can't wait to see the show!! I have read some reviews before I bought it and one thing that really bothered me was some close-minded person who complained that the lyrics didn't rhyme. Well, no, not all of it does, but that's what makes this music so beautiful. People always automatically think that lyrics have to rhyme, but I find the best songs to be where the lyrics don't necessarily rhyme and the music is beautiful; songs like the ones in this show. I highly recommend this soundtrack to everyone.

3 out of 5 stars Not quite there........2007-01-17

While some of the numbers were really great. Its evident that Broadway isn't Phil Collins calling. As an album it meets expectations, as a big production-its not quite as great as it should and could be. He has yet to expand some of the songs and make them into typical big broadway numbers. Theres too much pop in it, the music and lyrics are too simple. Collins music is missing an element if you were to look at it as a broadway production. It sounds virtually the same as the Disney, with just some different intrumentals-not good as a show. I think this show has the potential to be absolutely mind blowing if they heighten everything.

5 out of 5 stars Phil Collins is the best........2007-01-12

I like Phil Collins work, the music he write and sing and also the music he play (like in the Big Band with A Hot Night in Paris). He is truly a musician. And now he sorprise me with this production. Although he doesn't sing in it (only the bonus track), if you like Phil Collins and Disney this is a most have.

If anyone belongs in the "Whatever Happened To?" category of a game show, it's Phil Collins. Back in the 1980s, Collins was everywhere, having retinkered Genesis into a smooth, hit-making machine and embarking on a solo career that redefined adult contemporary music. He's still been busy, but nowhere near the spotlight. His latest project has been writing five songs for Disney's animated Tarzan. "You' ll Be in My Heart"--presented here in two versions, one with actress Glenn Close--is exactly the sort of ersatz orchestrated power ballad you expect from this sentimental guy. A duet with 'N Sync in "Trashin' the Camp" (also issued in two versions) is Phil's concession to the kids. Producer Mark Mancina's instrumental score mixes the expectant ambient sounds of the jungle with the slowly unfolding sounds of daybreak and jungle rhythms (provided by Collins on drums) that denote inevitable conflict. --Rob O'Connor

5 out of 5 stars Out of the mouths of babes...........2007-05-07

For my granddaughters 3rd birthday in march of this year, I bought her this Tarzan soundtrack. She loved the movie and would let the credits run, just to hear the music. I'm proud to say she knows all the songs and sings along. She loves the Tarzan soundtrack, it is the only cd that is played in my daughters car.

5 out of 5 stars One of the Best Soundtracks in the Music Industry!.......2006-12-05

This soundtrack is incredible. Phil Collins is a terrific singer (one of my personal favorites, as a matter of fact), and whoever composed the instrumental music is a genius. There's not a single song on this entire CD that I do not like. The whole thing gives me chills nearly every time I listen to it, and that's a good thing. So if you haven't heard this soundtrack yet, then take my advice and listen to it. It really is awesome, and it is worth every penny.

5 out of 5 stars Disney's Epic Jungle Soundtrack.......2006-11-16

In my personal opinion, this is the greatest modern Disney soundtrack around. To me it captured the atmosphere of "Tarzan" perfectly. Both Phil Collins and Mark Mancina did a wonderful job of harnessing the "wildness" of this film and put it to music. Collins has proven with this album that he has not lost a step. Channeling his inner "tribal" child, he cranked out some of the most memorable songs in Disney history as of late. "You'll Be In My Heart," "Son Of Man" and "Two Worlds" are epic pop tunes. They have definite staying power. My personal favorite, "Strangers Like Me," fits the film perfectly as Tarzan attempts to make sense of his new acquaintances in the jungle. Another wonderful tune is the film version of "Trashin' The Camp." This disc also contains a studio track of "Trashin' The Camp" performed by Collins and N'Sync, but it just isn't as fun as the film's version.

Mark Mancina guides the emotional rollercoaster of the film expertly with his score. My personal favorite is "The Gorillas."

Of course, no album about Tarzan would be complete without his signature yell. You'll find it at the end of the album on the "Two Worlds" finale.

If you enjoy tribal music, percussion, or simply a lot of well-choreographed noise, the "Tarzan" soundtrack will be a perfect additon to your collection.

Highly recommended.

4 out of 5 stars Good Soundtrack.......2006-07-27

Well, this soundtrack is great - all the songs my daughter and I love from the movie are there, and it's great to hear them. There are two versions of "Trashin the Camp" - the song by the gorillas playing items in the camp - but one we didn't like much is a studio mix, not in character voices or from the movie. It doesn't work for us!

5 out of 5 stars Phil goes ape in this terrific album!.......2005-12-08

This is Phil Collins at his abslolute best! You will have your Phil listening desires satisfied. This is a great CD.PERIOD! You won't go wrong buying this incredibly well done album. If you're hesitant to buy it, DO NOT DELAY!!!!! Go for it!!

Yeah looks like it's a great get, if you haven't already got every CD by disney. Didn't know the song You'll be In my Hear was a Tarzan track. Must be a spin off to You'll be in My Heart. Its all good.

5 out of 5 stars Awesome collection!.......2003-10-19

I have to say, that with a 5 year old who is obsessed with the movies that these songs go with, it has made the perfect gift! She spends hours listening to this CD while doing more productive activities than sitting in front of a TV watching the movie. The songs are special to her because of the movies, and she actually does her schoolwork well with these fun songs playing. As a music lover and a Disney lover, we both agree at 5 and 30 that this is a hit.

5 out of 5 stars For adult listeners, the Disney songs sung by "real" singers.......2003-07-22

Trivia Challenge: Included in the 16 tracks on "Disney's Superstar Hits" is the only song from a Disney film to hit #1 on the Billboard Pop Charts. See if you can remember which one it is before I give the answer away at the end. No peaking ahead.

The songs collected on "Disney's Superstar Hits" are mostly from the 1990s; there is "Once Upon a Time in New York City" from way back in 1988 from "Oliver and Company" and a few songs from the 21st century. But the only golden oldie is "Put It Together (Bibbidi Bobbidi Boo)," which comes from "Cinderella II" and not the original. The obvious frame of reference would be to see this collection as representing the Disney Renaissance ushered in by the Alan Menken/Howrad Ashman era, which makes it strange that nothing from "Little Mermaid" is included. But the common denominator to this collection is that the songs are not sung by the characters from these films, or, more properly, the people who did the voices for the characters. So instead of Angela Landsbury doing "Beauty and the Beast" it is Celine Dion and Peabo Bryson.

There are several songs from the less than stellar direct to video Disney sequels, such as "The Hunchback of Notre Dame II," "The Lion King II: Return to Pride Rock," "and "Cinderella II," which would be a minor complaint. But Tina Turner sings one of the songs, so it is hard to complain. In fact, the strength of this collection is indeed the superstar singers. Most of them are blasts from the past such as Elton John, Stevie Wonder, Phil Collins, Sting, Huey Lewis, and Randy Newsman, but there is also new blood such as Christina Aguilera, Sarah McLachlan, Vanessa Williams, and even Jennifer Love Hewitt. Peabo Bryson comes out ahead, with the aforementioned "Beauty and the Beast" and another duet, "A Whole New World" with Regina Belle.

This disc is perfect for grown ups, who like the "real" singers singing the best songs from the Disney movies their kids have been dragging them to for the past decade. Vanessa William's "Colors of the Wind" is my personal favorite, although it is hard not to recall the fantastic opening of "The Lion King" when you hear Elton John do "Circle of Life." On the fun side of the ledger I like Randy Newman and Lyle Lovett working their collective ways through "You've Got a Friend in Me" a bit more than Jimmy Cliff and Lebo M's "Hakuna Matata."

Trivia Answer: "A Whole New World" was #1 on the Billboard Pop Chart for one week starting on March 6, 1993. It is the song that replaced Whitney Houston's cover of Dolly Parton's "I Will Always Love You" after 14 weeks on top.

4 out of 5 stars Good CD.......2002-12-29

This is a great CD, but I was kind of disappointed that there weren't more tracks on it. Other than that, you and your kids will be singing along in the car for sure.

    Tarzan may seem like the kind of story you'd sell to an entertainment-starved kid apt to leap around in a loincloth or swing from the chandelier, but Disney's retelling extends a vine to the tamest 5- to 10-year-old. Take away the ferocious leopard, an angry ape or two, and a bounty-hunting bad guy, and you're left with a love story: Tarzan (voiced by Tony Goldwyn), orphaned in the jungle, is adopted by apes Kerchak (Lance Henriksen) and Kala (Glenn Close). As he comes of age, simian siblings Terk (Rosie O'Donnell) and Tantor (Wayne Knight) school him in the ways of the savages, so that when Jane (Minnie Driver) arrives with her father (Nigel Hawthorne) and their jungle guide (Brian Blessed) on an expedition, she's bewildered by his beastliness. But she also finds him kind of cute. Cut to a couple of human, baboon, and gorilla chases, gunshots from a human who turns out to be more savage than the savages, and a storybook ending for the sweethearts, and this becomes rope-'em-in, sweep-'em-along, snip-off-the-loose-ends Disney escapism, the kind you can set your clock by. Or, in this case, your computer. Besides the booklet and tape combo, the tidily packaged Tarzan Read-Along houses a CD you can substitute for the cassette or slip into your CD-ROM drive. The story plays onscreen as the words scroll by beneath. The cast's talent, the animation, and the classic jungle-man yodel-yelp combine to pull young readers in by the pith helmet--in tackling Tarzan, Disney didn't monkey around. --Tammy La Gorce

    Dimitri Tiomkin was one of the most prominent composers of Hollywood's Golden Age and beyond, his career spanning a half-century and some of America's most classic films. This sprawling, four-disc anthology (its title a marketing nod to the modern remake of one of Tiomkin's notable collaborations with John Wayne) features new digital recordings of full-bodied performances by the City of Prague Orchestra and Festival Chorus, the most ambitious and comprehensive tribute to the composer yet attempted. There's something here for film score buffs (rarities like a suite from his sci-fi genre-defining Thing From Another World and the "Main Theme" for the pilot of TV's Wild, Wild West) and novice alike; indeed one could scarcely ask for a more complete overview of Tiomkin's robust orchestral oeuvre. Divided into four chapters, disc one chronicles how the Ukrainian immigrant concocted a rich Western film heritage (including such genre landmarks as Red River, High Noon, Gunfight at the O.K. Corral and Rio Bravo) from largely European traditions, while the next two CD's cover his rousing work for epics and thrillers of every stripe, and collaborations with Hitchcock, Wayne, Capra, Stevens and more. The concluding disc pays homage to Tiomkin the unlikely pop tunesmith, via his hit vocal themes to Rawhide, Wild is the Wind and High Noon's "Do Not Forsake Me." --Jerry McCulley

    5 out of 5 stars More expensive than the other Essential but worth it........2007-04-22

    This is an excellent set of music of Dimitri Tiomkin's music! The 4th disc is short (at just over 30 minutes), but thats because it is just the vocal versions of tracks which appeared in instrumental form throughout the first 3 discs. Whenever you buy a silva screen compilation, the first thing you ask yourself is 'when were these recordings made' and 'do I have these tracks on other compilations? Thankfully, this set has TONS of new recordings, but there is some recycled stuff and they are as follows:

    Dial M For Murder is from the 1993 History of Hitchcock Vol. I, while Strangers on a Train is from 1995's History of Hitchcock Vol. II.

    Three tracks originate from 1994's "Music From the Films Of John Wayne". They are "The High and the Mighty", "The Alamo - Overture" and "The Alamo - Green Leaves of Summer".


    Red River is from 1996's "How The West Was Won: Classic Western Film Scores Vol. One".

    The Thing From Another World suite is from the excelllent 1998 set "Alien Invasion: Space And Beyond II"

    Many tracks first appeared on "Way Out West: The Essential Western Film Music Collection Vol. Two". They are: "Duel In The Sun", "The Alamo (Davy Crockett)", "Friendly Persuasion", "Giant (Main Theme)", "Gunfight at the OK Corral", "High Noon", "Rio Bravo", and "The Unforgiven (The Need For Love)".

    The rest of the tracks are brand spankin new, and most are not available on other discs, so snag this one up in a hurry!

    5 out of 5 stars Excellent compilation of an important composer........2004-07-16

    This long overdue collection of Tiomkin standards and rarities is a must for any fan of symphonic music; albeit, for film or concert hall. As the liner notes clarify; these recordings are a real labor of love for James Fitzpatrick and the Silva Screen team. Tiomkin is; undoubtedly, one of the most difficult of composers to replicate. This recording comes extremely close to "hitting the nail on the head" particularly with tracks such as: "Across the Texas Panhandle" from the Unforgiven, The Entr'acte from Duel in the Sun, The Guns of Navarone, The War Wagon, and the main title and Jett Rink theme from Giant. This recording is a bargain, particularly for collectors who have sought after many of Tiomkin's composer conducted soundtracks (which are getting harder and harder to obtain). Listeners who enjoy this set should consider seeking out previous cd releases of the soundtracks to "The Guns of Navarone" (SONY, Varese Sarabande), "The Fall of the Roman Empire" (Varese Sarabande, PEG), "55 Days at Peking" (Varese Sarabande), and "The Alamo" :original soundtrack (still available on SONY-Legacy).

    5 out of 5 stars "film composer Dimitri Tiomkin gave his all and then some".......2004-07-13

    Silva America presents the ultimate in film music during the illustrious career of an icon and legendary composer of film scores ~ "Alamo:Dimitri Tiomkin Essential Film Collection/O.S.T", featuring some long forgotten 53 cues that sent chills and thrills into the pulses of world events ~ selections from a limited collectors edition that would make any "film-score-buff" green with envy.

    Tiomkin was born in Ukraine, Russia [1894-1979] attended and graduated from St. Petersburg Academy[studied under the famed composer Glazunov] ~ had a degree in music as well as law ~ came to America in 1925, shown great interest for Native American music early in his film career.

    Great fondness for "The Western" ~ "DUEL IN THE SUN" (1946) (Gregory Peck, Jennifer Jones, Joseph Cotton, Lionel Barrymore, Lilian Gish and Charles Bickford - one of biggest and successful epic Westerns ever, score & photography was simply breathtaking), "RED RIVER" (1948) (John Wayne, Monty Cliff and Walter Brennan - the Duke should have won an Oscar for his performance as the aging cantankerous cattle baron)"HIGH NOON" (1952)(classic film with Gary Cooper in his Oscar winning performance of Will Kane), "TENSION AT TABLE ROCK" (1956), "GUNFIGHT AT THE OK CORRAL" (1957)(Burt Lancaster as Wyatt Earp & Kirk Douglas as Doc Holliday pulled this off with the help of the Main Theme), "NIGHT PASSAGE" (1957), "RIO BRAVO" (1959) (top box office leaders John Wayne, Dean Martin, Walter Brennan and Ricky Nelson), "THE YOUNG LAND" (1959) (young Dennis Hopper), "RAWHIDE" (TV Series) (1959-66) (Eric Fleming as trail boss Gil Favor & Clint Eastwood as Rowdy Yates), "THE UNFORGIVEN" (1960) (Burt Lancaster, Audie Murphy and Audrey Hepburn), "THE WILD, WILD WEST" (TV Series) (1965-69)(Tiomkin's music never saw the light of day), "WAR WAGON" (1967) (John Wayne & Kirk Douglas starred) (beautifully melodic) ~ it's easy to see why Tiomkin loved Western lore.

    Second disc contains The Epics ~ "LAND OF THE PHARAOHS" (1955) (Jack Hawkins as Pharaoh Cheops and a beautiful Joan Collins as his scheming wife), "55 DAYS AT PEKING" (1963) (Charlton Heston, David Niven and Ava Gardner is the all star cast), "THE FALL OF THE ROMAN EMPIRE" (1964) (featuring Alec Guinness as emperor Marcus Aurelius), "CIRCUS WORLD" (1964) (John Wayne, Claudia Cardinale and Rita Hayworth under the big top) ~ next we Hitchcock Thrillers with "STRANGERS ON A TRAIN" (1951) (a masterpiece film featuring Robert Walker and Farley Granger are both very convincing as we learn, never talked to strangers on a train or anywhere), "DIAL M FOR MURDER" (1954) (tense moments come from Grace Kelly, Ray Milland and Robert Cummings - they don't get any better than this) ~ finally Drama and High Adventure with "HIGH AND MIGHTY" (1954) (another outstanding performance by John Wayne, as the co-pilot of an airline whistling the haunting theme), "GIANT" (1956)(another big epic film with Rock Hudson, Elizabeth Taylor, James Dean and Chill Wills show us what it's like to be a Texan, with oil and money), "WILD IS THE WIND" (1957) (Anthony Quinn, Anna Magnani and Anthony Franciosa), "THE GUNS OF NAVARONE" (1961) (World War II film featuring Gregory Peck, Anthony Quinn, David Niven and Stanley Baker on a small Greek Island trying to outwit the Germans and a very big gun) ~ some of Tiomkin's most inspiring themes rise to the surface.

    On disc three ~ as we continue with Drama and High Adventures "IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE" (1946) (James Stewart, Donna Reed, Thomas Mitchell, Lionel Barrymore and Ward Bond with wholesome warm and endearing themes from our favorite composer), "TARZAN AND THE MERMAIDS" (1948) (in his 12th film as Tarzan, Johnny Weissmuller still had what it takes to swim and defeat the man-god Balu - Weissmuller and Tiomkin the perfect combination for this Tarzan adventure), "CYRANO DE BERGERAC" (1950) (Jose Ferrer stars as Edmond Rostand's famous swordsman with a even more famous nose), "THE WELL" (1951) (intense cues give the film musical triumphs in final scenes), "THE THING FROM ANOTHER WORLD" (1951) (exciting Howard Hawks film with a score to match), "FRIENDLY PERSUASION" (1956) (director William Wyler shows the life and times of a Quaker family played by Gary Cooper, Dorothy Mcguire and Anthony Perkins during the American Civil War, very touching), "THE ALAMO" (1960) (big budget epic western with Big John Wayne it's producer, director and star as Davy Crockett with a haunting and never to be forgotten "The Green Leaves of Summer"), "TOWN WITHOUT PITY" (1961) (Kirk Douglas in a post-war Germany story, blends jazz themes with Tiomkin signature arrangements) ~ Tiomkin always made the difference when it came to scoring a film.

    The last and final disc four ~ The Tiomkin Vocal Songbook featuring "This Then is Texas" (Giant), "Rawhide" (Rawhide), "Do Not Forsake Me" (High Noon), "Follow the River" (Night Passage), "The Ballad of Jett Rink" (Giant), "Thee I Love" (Friendly Percuasion), "It's A Wonderful Life", "Wild Is The Wind", "The High and the Mighty", The Ballad of the War Wagon" (The War Wagon), "Rio Bravo", "Strange are the Ways of Love" (The Young Land), "The Ballad of Jim West" (The Wild Wild West), "The Wild Wild West" (The Wild Wild West) ~ many were hit makers of the day and in the top ten.

    Outstanding performances by The City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra (Nic Raine, Paul Bateman, Mario Klemens - are the conductors), Crouch End Festival Chorus (David Temple - choir master), featuring vocals by Jason Howard and Keith Ferreira ~ hats off to James Fitzpatrick (producer), Reynold da Silva (executive producer), Olilvia Tiomkin Douglas, John Waxman, Rick Clark and Gareth Williams (associate producers) ~ all film producers and directors welcomed the legendary composer with open arms for their forthcoming projects ~ the "film-score-buff" collectors are ecstatic about this four disc release on the essential film music collection of DIMITRI TIOMKIN, the arrangements and performances are top notch inclusive of HDCD/Dolby Surround.

    When listening to the music of a film, you had the feeling of the storyline, characters and convictions of the whole picture, they'll never be another to come this way again ~ Silva America has outdone themselves on this one, it is definitely a five star film score box set...gotta love it!

          If anyone belongs in the "Whatever Happened To?" category of a game show, it's Phil Collins. Back in the 1980s, Collins was everywhere, having retinkered Genesis into a smooth, hit-making machine and embarking on a solo career that redefined adult contemporary music. He's still been busy, but nowhere near the spotlight. His latest project has been writing five songs for Disney's animated Tarzan. "You'll Be in My Heart"--presented here in two versions, one with actress Glenn Close--is exactly the sort of ersatz orchestrated power ballad you expect from this sentimental guy. A duet with 'N Sync in "Trashin' the Camp" (also issued in two versions) is Phil's concession to the kids. Producer Mark Mancina's instrumental score mixes the expectant ambient sounds of the jungle with the slowly unfolding sounds of daybreak and jungle rhythms (provided by Collins on drums) that denote inevitable conflict. --Rob O'Connor

          5 out of 5 stars Out of the mouths of babes...........2007-05-07

          For my granddaughters 3rd birthday in march of this year, I bought her this Tarzan soundtrack. She loved the movie and would let the credits run, just to hear the music. I'm proud to say she knows all the songs and sings along. She loves the Tarzan soundtrack, it is the only cd that is played in my daughters car.

          5 out of 5 stars One of the Best Soundtracks in the Music Industry!.......2006-12-05

          This soundtrack is incredible. Phil Collins is a terrific singer (one of my personal favorites, as a matter of fact), and whoever composed the instrumental music is a genius. There's not a single song on this entire CD that I do not like. The whole thing gives me chills nearly every time I listen to it, and that's a good thing. So if you haven't heard this soundtrack yet, then take my advice and listen to it. It really is awesome, and it is worth every penny.

          5 out of 5 stars Disney's Epic Jungle Soundtrack.......2006-11-16

          In my personal opinion, this is the greatest modern Disney soundtrack around. To me it captured the atmosphere of "Tarzan" perfectly. Both Phil Collins and Mark Mancina did a wonderful job of harnessing the "wildness" of this film and put it to music. Collins has proven with this album that he has not lost a step. Channeling his inner "tribal" child, he cranked out some of the most memorable songs in Disney history as of late. "You'll Be In My Heart," "Son Of Man" and "Two Worlds" are epic pop tunes. They have definite staying power. My personal favorite, "Strangers Like Me," fits the film perfectly as Tarzan attempts to make sense of his new acquaintances in the jungle. Another wonderful tune is the film version of "Trashin' The Camp." This disc also contains a studio track of "Trashin' The Camp" performed by Collins and N'Sync, but it just isn't as fun as the film's version.

          Mark Mancina guides the emotional rollercoaster of the film expertly with his score. My personal favorite is "The Gorillas."

          Of course, no album about Tarzan would be complete without his signature yell. You'll find it at the end of the album on the "Two Worlds" finale.

          If you enjoy tribal music, percussion, or simply a lot of well-choreographed noise, the "Tarzan" soundtrack will be a perfect additon to your collection.

          Highly recommended.

          4 out of 5 stars Good Soundtrack.......2006-07-27

          Well, this soundtrack is great - all the songs my daughter and I love from the movie are there, and it's great to hear them. There are two versions of "Trashin the Camp" - the song by the gorillas playing items in the camp - but one we didn't like much is a studio mix, not in character voices or from the movie. It doesn't work for us!

          5 out of 5 stars Phil goes ape in this terrific album!.......2005-12-08

          This is Phil Collins at his abslolute best! You will have your Phil listening desires satisfied. This is a great CD.PERIOD! You won't go wrong buying this incredibly well done album. If you're hesitant to buy it, DO NOT DELAY!!!!! Go for it!!
