In the years before rock (and even for a few years after), the album charts were full of original Broadway cast LPs and soundtracks of the film versions of those Broadway musicals. And the soundtrack to 1955's Oklahoma! was one of the biggest--hitting No. 1 for a month that year--and becoming part of the consciousness of darn near every Baby Boomer whose folks owned a record player over the next five or so years. Gordon MacRae and Shirley Jones (in her film debut) were so good together, they repeated the formula (well, after Frank Sinatra dropped out) in the following year's film version of another Rodgers & Hammerstein classic, Carousel. Every song here--from "Oh! What a Beautiful Morning " to the closing title track--is a gem, and whether it's "People Will Say We're in Love" or "The Farmer and the Cowman, " these are the most familiar--and definitive--versions. You even get the rousing overture. --Bill Holdship

Union Square Music

The soundtrack to this Oscar and Golden Globe winning film was put together from already existent, successful pop numbers. No words are really necessary about the music, since numbers such as "Sound of Silence, " "Mrs. Robinson" and "Scarborough Fair" have entered into the annals of musical culture ever since they were used in the film. It is astounding to note how seamlessly the various works fit snugly into the film's context, as though they had been specially written for the scenes. It catapulted Simon & Garfunkel right to the top of the list of ballad singers, and it also includes instrumental insertion numbers by Dave Grusin, who virtually fell into oblivion after all the hype about this provocative movie. Track Listing 1. The Sound Of Silence 2. The Singleman Party Foxtrot 3. Mrs. Robinson 4. Sunporch Cha-Cha-Cha 5. Scarborough Fair / Canticle (Inerlude) 6. On The Strip 7. April Come She Will 8.

Audio Remixer: Dan Hersch.Liner Note Authors: David Schwartz; Fred Wostbrock; Jim Pierson.Photographer: Fred Wostbrock.It's sort of a silly idea for a collection, but Classic TV Game Show Themes works, because these 20 themes, from What's My Line? and The Joker's Wild to Wheel of Fortune, have worked their way into pop culture. Almost all of the classic game show themes are here on this speedy, entertaining disc that will appeal equally to baby boomers and Gen-Xers. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
