Free Music Notes for Jungle Book
Free Music Review: Jungle Book Review
Hit: 3 Stars
A lot of the music on this CD is just instrumental as in the movie but my kids do enjoy that and I guess it fosters good imagination.Free Music Review: It's really HALF the soundtrack....
Hit: 2 Stars
Yeah its great that you hear the songs from the movie. HOWEVER, its a regurgitation of the past CDs that were put out that left so much of the dialouge (FROM THE MOVIE) out. These classic songs now have these HUGE instrumental breaks that takes most of the punch out of them. And this dialouge was FROM THE MOVIE, not from the storybook vinyl album that we had as kids. Some of these songs don't even make sense without that dialouge, and definitely weakens this CD as a whole. The Louie Prima classic is KILLED by this, and so is the "Bare Necessities". SUCH a disappointment. It's like the people who put this together 15 or so years ago (this version is the same as the ones from like 1990 or so) didn't even listen to it before they put it out. Or just didn't care...Free Music Review: Not like the original vinyl recording
Hit: 2 Stars
I was disappointed with this CD. I purchased it because the vinyl edition that I had as a child was so good, I just had to have it on CD. But unfortunately, this recording contains NONE (or almost none) of the original dialog to support the telling of the story or even to help the songs keep their meaning. If you are looking for that, I'd suggest you just purchase the DVD instead. The music is still good...Louis Prima and Sterling Holloway (who also does the voice for Winnie the Pooh) are terrific. And Phil Harris IS Baloo the Bear. Too bad this recording doesn't capture their complete performances.Free Music Review: Not the original kids soundtrack
Hit: 1 Stars
This was a great disappointment. As a child I spent hours listening to the Jungle Book record. While it did not follow the movie songs exactly, it was a KIDS album, for a KIDS movie. There were songs that were not in the movie, but again geared towards kids. Now that I have kids of my own I wanted to share it with them, but instead I get something that is made for adults. If you remember the album as a child and want it again - THIS IS NOT IT!Free Music Review: Disappointing, not the one I grew up with!

I wish I'd noticed the review already online about thisCD. I too grew up with the Jungle Book record and
hoped my toddler would get to hear the same one, as it was,
after telling him how great it was, it was quite a disappointment. He only listens to one or two songs on it
and even there classic bits that I remember are missing.
