| | Annie Get Your Gun Soundtrack CD (1 Customer Review)
ANNIE GET YOUR GUN won the 2000 Grammy Award for Best Musical Show Album.
The key to a musical revival is ultimately the songs and the story: are the tunes holding up and will modern audiences swallow or understand the book? In the case of ANNIE GET YOUR GUN, generally thought to be Irving Berlin's finest Broadway moment, the answer turns out--after minimal tweaking and updating--to be a resounding "Yes!" In a fearless star-turn--no less a legend than Ethel Merman created the original role--Bernadette Peters brings her own perky, less brassy personality to the table in this 1999 production. Several of the tracks here are bona fide American standards, including the show-stopper "There's No Business Like Show Business" and the enchanting ballad "They Say It's Wonderful." Though as one might expect, Frank Butler and Annie Oakley do wind up together in the end, there's plenty of tension along the way to the happy ending, as reflected in this Berlin couplet: "But a man never trifles / with gals who carry rifles."

Annie Get Your Gun Soundtrack album
$8.99 Songwriter/librettists Leslie Bricusse and Anthony Newley followed their triumph with Stop the World -- I Want to Get Off, a musical that played successfully in the West End and on Broadway, with The Roar of the Greasepaint -- The Smell of the Crowd, which opened a pre-London British tour in Nottingham on August 3, 1964. Unlike its predecessor, the new show did not feature Newley as its star, although he did direct the production. That casting error and the somewhat forbidding plot (it was, as Bill Rosenfield, in his liner notes to the 1990 reissue of the original Broadway cast album, calls "a comic allegory about the class system in contemporary Britain") doomed the musical, which closed without reaching the West End. Meanwhile, however, two good things happened: American producer David Merrick, who had seen the show in Liverpool, agreed to put it on Broadway if Newley stepped into the starring role of Cocky, and Tony Bennett recorded one of the songs, "Who Can I Turn To (When Nobody Needs Me)," which went on to peak in the Top 40. A cast for the U.S. led by Newley and Cyril Ritchard (as the upper-class character Sir) was quickly assembled, and The Roar of the Greasepaint -- The Smell of the Crowd embarked on a lengthy tour of ...
