A vibrant tribute to MGM's legendary confluence of brains, talent, hard work, ambition--and dare we say it?--massive egos, Singin' in the Rain long ago took its rightful place among the first rank of the studio's dizzying catalog of film musicals. This double-disc, 46-track 50th-anniversary edition features all of the film's familiar songs, as well as numerous outtakes and extended versions, many culled directly from the film's original recording masters. Its second disc also chronicles the film's clever--if studio imposed--self-referential musical gambit of recycling a slate of Arthur Freed/Nacio Herb Brown songs from Metro's first decade by including 14 of the originals, including performances by Jeanette McDonald, Judy Garland, Mickey Rooney, and Freed himself. Featuring a dozen previously unreleased recordings and an illustrated booklet containing the insightful reminiscences of the film's original writers, Betty Comden and Adolph Green, it's the ultimate musical companion to one of cinema's magical, enduring masterpieces. --Jerry McCulleyAlbum Description
The complete 50th Anniversary Edition and a bonus disc featuring the original recordings that inspired the 1952 MGM classic! Includes 12 previously unreleased tracks 'Would You?' (duet) (unused version), 'Beautiful Girl' (unused original version), 'Singin' In The Rain' (alternative vocal), 'Should I' (unused instrumental), 'You Were Meant For Me', 'All I Do Is Dream Of You', 'Broadway Rhythm', 'You Are My Lucky Star', 'Would You?', 'Dancing On A Rainbow' plus 'Broadway Melody Ballet' (original version).

Petula in the late fifties.......2003-05-25
This compilation is made up of Petula's first original album (the first twelve tracks here, all covers of Hollywood movie songs) and a lot of other tracks recorded in the fifties, plus one from 1961. Many of these additional songs are either from the Great American Songbook, or they are contemporary songs that carried on the tradition.
Very different from Petula's later music, this collection is likely to be of greatest interest to fans of the thirties and forties. Petula proves here that she could have been a big band singer - just listen to her version of Fascinating rhythm. She could swing with the best.
As time goes by, originally from the Broadway musical Everybody's welcome, was a top twenty American hit for both Rudy Vallee and Jacques Renard in 1931. Years later, it was included in the movie Casablanca, enabling Rudy to take the song to number one in 1943.
Of the other songs here, perhaps the most famous are Zing went the strings of my heart (Judy Garland), Memories are made of this (Dean Martin), but there are too many great songs here to mention in detail. If you are a fan of the thirties and forties, you will recognise your own favorites. If not, you should ignore this.

Great compilation.......2002-05-10
The previous review is way off the mark. This is definitely not a waste of time or money. This is 25 years of preserving Broadway shows, Off-Broadway shows, studio recordings (mostly from the city center concerts), etc. So what if they "aren't as good as the original", DRG is preserving many recordings and artists that other mainstream labels don't or won't. You have wonderful recordings from Brian Stokes Mitchell, Nathan Lane, Debbie Gravitte, Tyne Daly, Anthony Perkins, Joanna Gleason, Marin Mazzie, Carol Burnett, Heather Headley, Patti LuPone, Barbara Cook, etc., and many of these are from Original Cast Recordings just as they appeared on Broadway. This is an excellent sampler of the work going on at DRG. No...I'm not an employee...just an avid listener and collector of theatre recordings.
A disappointment.......2001-12-15

This Is Where It All Began!.......2003-04-18
"Holiday" is perhaps one of the best known dance/pop party songs ever. The song has truly reached anthemic status, and charted at No.5 on VH1 UK's 100 Greatest Floorfillers. Released way back in January 1984, Holiday peaked at No.6 in the UK where it spent 11 weeks on the chart. The song has been re-issued twice in August 1985 and June 1991, peaking at No.2 and No.5 respectively.
Holiday is such a popular song because of its happy and trouble-free lyrics. The way the uptempo and light beat is arranged is instantly recognisable, and Madonna's vocals are totally unique to anything she has ever done before. The song begins with Madonna's proud statement "Holiday!" before going on to proclaim "Celebrate!" Simple yet effective, the song strikes a chord with every listener. The pure dizzy fun doesn't stop, as the song passes through many minutes without ever becoming boring. "If we took a holiday! Took some time to celebrate! Just one day out of life! It would be! It would be so nice!" croons Madge on one of the song's most famous verses. The repetition of lines never gets boring, and the rather long instrumentals between choruses and verses enhance the quality of the overall production factor.
Holiday is always a favourite amongst fans at Madonna's concerts. One has to witness her performance of it on her 1990 Blonde Ambition World Tour to truly appreciate the respect that this song has achieved. Make no mistake, this is a true classic.

fine recording.......2001-12-21
The cast also featured Roy Castle as Cosmo Brown, Danielle Carson as Kathy Seldon and Sarah Payne as Lina Lamont. A fantastic ensemble was headed by Joyce Carpenter.
Danielle Carson brings the house down with the 'Valentine Girls' in "I Can't Give You Anything But Love", which replaced "All I Do Is Dream Of You". Ms Carson also gives a lovely treatment of "Would You?".
Tommy Steele proves his showmanship with "You Are My Lucky Star", "Singin' In The Rain", and "Fascinating Rhythm". Roy Castle is great in the comical "Make 'Em Laugh", while Sarah Payne is given time to shine in "Temptation".
Overall a fine recording.

MADONNA'S LUCKY STAR!.......2005-11-19
Trivia: Lucky Star was written by Madonna on a yellow paper after she got a deal with Sire Records through her DJ friend Mark Kamins (who produced Everybody). Madonna was so happy that day that she dedicated Lucky Star to Mark Kamins. This was according to a Madonna book written by Andrew Morton.
long live the queen!
One of the happiest, most charming songs of all time.......2005-07-20
But, somehow, it all works. I love this song and I don't know why. Maybe it's Madonna star appeal or something. I don't know. But this is one of my favorite songs ever.
Early Madonna Doesn't Get Much Better Than This!.......2003-04-19
Lucky Star begins with an excellent beat that sounds like shimmering sunshine reflecting off sea water. This carries on in the background as the infectious and funky beat takes over and introduces us to Madonna's first line, "You must be my lucky star, 'cos you make the darkness seem so far." The lyrics aren't exactly genius, but they do serve as a pointer to what message the song puts across. It's a song filled with emotions on love and happiness, yet this does not show in Madonna's vocals. As good as they are, they are very laid-back...very Deborah Harry. The verses are very short and are followed up instantly by the chorus. The highlight of the song comes with the breakdown, where Madonna sings the lyrics, "Come on, shine your heavenly body tonight, 'cos I know you're gonna make everything alright!" The song carries on in its upbeat fashion, maintaining the funky tempo and trouble-free lyrics right until the end.
The video to Lucky Star is very plain and boring. Along with a white backdrop and several dancers, Madonna dances around in her iconic trashy gear that became the ultimate fashion statement of the early 80's. Overall, Lucky Star is, like every song released from her debut album, a Madonna classic which has aged well and stands the test of time.
