Musica Mirabilis
$8.85 A no-frills CD reissue of what was already a pretty frills-free vinyl anthology from the '70s, The Very Best of the Classics IV is not geared for the obsessive fan of Dennis Yost and crew, even assuming such people exist. The sound is serviceable, the liner notes non-existent, and the skimpy 26-and-a-half-minute running time is just barely on the right side of a gyp. On the other hand, for the casual fan who just wants decent-sounding versions of "Spooky," "Traces," and "Stormy" -- this Atlanta-based group's three mellow blue-eyed soul hits -- this is an inexpensive way to do just that. The other seven tracks contain no hidden gems, but they're perfectly serviceable, even the cover of Bobby Hebb's maudlin "Sunny." ~ Stewart Mason
| | Pops Roundup / Fiedler, Boston Pops Orchestra CD (1962)
Musica Mirabilis
$7.55 Selections recorded 1962 and 1967. Pops Roundup presents a Walt Disney view of the west in which soaring strings and horns evoke images from western movies rather than the actual west. The dynamic music features all-new arrangements of classic western songs as well as themes from television, films, and Broadway shows. Woodblocks create the clippity-clop of horses' hooves, and other uncommon (for an orchestra) instruments such as harmonica and accordion crop up in places. An array of odd sounds, from whistles to gunshots, add to the strong visual quality of the music. Two long medleys of western television themes and fiddle reels bookend the album, with the latter receiving a positively whimsical interpretation. Pops Roundup is a soundtrack in search of a motion picture, ...

$61.69 Recorded at the Bayreuth Festival in 1970, this remains one of the finest modern performances of Wagner's Parsifal available today. Though a little shy on warmth, conductor Pierre Boulez's judicious tempo choices combined with his uncanny understanding of the subtleties of Wagner's sonic fabric and their effect on the Opera's overall design are remarkably captivating. The four principal ...

Photographers: Don Hunstein; Hank Parker; Bob Cato. European copyright law allows recordings more than 50 years old into the public domain so that anyone who wants to can make a transfer from an old album and release a new version of it, and Prism Leisure, a British budget reissue label, has taken advantage of that by putting out this disc, which combines the original Broadway cast album of Oklahoma!, originally released by Decca Records and still claimed for U.S. copyright by Universal, and the four medleys of songs from the score made by the original London cast (including Howard Keel, who replaced Alfred Drake on Broadway) in 1947 and originally issued on a double-EP by HMV in the U.K.. The London cast recordings have turned up on U.S. releases (originally an LP on Stanyan, later on a budget-priced CD on LaserLight), but this version is more complete. Theoretically, this disc should not be offered for sale in the U.S., but in fact it could be obtained from American mail-order firms upon release for about $8, far less than what you'd pay for the U.S. CD. Unlike that one, however, you would not get the extra tracks from the second Oklahoma! album. Also, the sound, drawn from secondary sources, is not as impressive, and the annotations are skimpy and contain errors -- even Oscar Hammerstein II's name is misspelled! Still, musical theater buffs may be interested in the London cast tracks. ~ William Ruhlmann Composer Richard Rodgers once praised Florence Henderson as the ideal vehicle for his kind of music -- pretty, extroverted, and gifted with a very natural-sounding voice. In this studio recording of the groundbreaking musical Oklahoma!, Henderson sang the role of Laurey, a part she'd previously performed in a road company of the show. Joining her as Curly was John Raitt, who had originated the role of Billy in Rodgers & Hammerstein's Carousel. Also receiving top billing on this ...
