Free Music Notes for Jule Styne in HollywoodFree Music Review: Possibly the best release from PS Classics ever
Before the Broadway Jule Styne (think Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, Bells are Ringing, Gypsy among his most sucessful shows),he toiled in Hollywood for years during the late 30's and 40's. Some of his classic movie songs are well known such as I Don't Want to Walk without You and I'll Walk Alone. Others are not so well known. When I was plowing through the 6 disc Sinatra in Hollywood set, I was amazed at the vitality of the songs Jule Styne wrote for Sinatra. As the Amazon reviewer said, Sinatra and Styne were a match made in heaven. But how is this recording and will you like it? Wonderful and Yes you absolutely will!! Kelli O'Hara leads off with a lovely whistful song called Blame My Absent Minded Heart which is lovely. Unfortunately it is followed by Audra McDonald and an unfamiliar number from West Point Story called 10437 Sheep. Once you have heard it, everything else is forgotten. Teriffic performance of a teriffic song. Other highlights include Sutton Foster singing There's Nothing Rougher than Love, Philip Chaffin singing Come Out, Come Out, Wherever you are (with a sly little wink in his voice--Sinatra sang it in Step Lively but this is at least as good probably better), Klea Blackhurst with That Ain't Hay (That's the U.S.A.), Brent Barrett weighing in with the classic Time After Time and jeff Harnar's Money Burns a Hole in My Pocket. Any of the tracks that I have not mentioned would be standouts if only the tracks mentioned weren't so unbelievably wonderful. This CD should be rated with 8 stars!! One of the best CDs I have purchased in a long time, and I purchase a lot. BUY IT!!
