Free Music Notes for Pufnstuf
Free Music Review: AN ABSOLUTE "MUST" FOR FANS OF 70's TV, KROFFT, CASS, KITSCH AND TERRIFIC MUSIC!
Hit: 5 Stars
You don't have to be a fan of the TV show "H.R. Pufnstuf" to appreciate this gem of an album, though fans of the series will enjoy it. It does not offer the catchy, peppy little ditties you heard on the TV show, but instead a rich, large, very 70's sound.
It's almost as if you're hearing the 70's careers of composer Charles Fox and lyricist Norman Gimbel in one sitting, because even though they had not yet written all of their signature theme yet, the styles and phrasing were already there in "Pufnstuf."
Just a few examples: the trumpet work in "Zap the World" is reminiscent of WONDER WOMAN; the lilting back-and-forth tone of "A Friend in You" is very much like THE LOVE BOAT; "Living Island" suggests LOVE AMERICAN STYLE; and the middle part of "If I Could" has elements of LAVERNE AND SHIRLEY.
The sound quality is very good, since the original vinyl album sounded pretty powerful to begin with, but I have a quibble with the producers of the CD because they decided to lengthen some of the tracks by repeating phrases. This is the case in "Living Island," "Witchiepoo's Lament," "Angel Raid," "How Lucky I Am," and "Charge." I'm sure their intentions were good, but it wasn't really necessary. However, the album is so good I gave it five stars for the being on CD at all.
Thanks very much to all who made this CD happen!
Pufnstuf Poster
The soundtrack to the film version of Sid & Marty Kroffts gigantic children's TV hit HR Pufnstuf, the program that introduced psychedelia into the diet of English and American children in the late 60's early 70's. The soundtrack, written by Charles Fox and Norman Gimbel (Barbarella, Happy Days, Laverne & Shirley) is a remarkable amalgam of bubblegum, psychedelic instrumentation and joyful knockabout songs including 'Zap The World', and the fine cass solo number 'Different' which is exclusive to this record. Punfstuf is full of great, clever, funny songs sung by Jack Wild, Cass Elliot, Witchiepoo and the cast. El. 2006.Broadway & Vocalists Music CDs
