5.0 out of 5 stars brings back memories, 15 Mar 2004
By A Customer
When my sister and I were young, if we couldn't get to sleep we'd shout out "Daaaad, sing us a magic song". The magic songs in question were three of the tracks included on this soundtrack: Lullaby in Ragtime, Good Night, Sleep Tight, and The Five Pennies. I've never seen the film and I don't think I've even heard the original versions of these songs, so I was overjoyed when the soundtrack was finally made available. Hearing the originals brought back so many memories, and even made me cry! The album is wonderful, even without having seen them film. The whole atmosphere of the soundtrack reminds me of It's a Wonderful Life, and I'm sure the film will be just as touching as that. The music is great - although you can't really go far wrong with Satchmo and Danny Kaye! You do have to like lots of trumpets and brass though. Catchy, stylish, moving, exuberant - everything a soundtrack from a classic musical should be!

5.0 out of 5 stars HERE'S MY (FIVE) PENNIES' WORTH, 21 Jul 2007
By Gerald Reek "GOLDEN OLDIE" (STOCKPORT, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I originally had this recording on Brunswick (Stereo!) vinyl from 1959, but it has long gone.

After seeing it available on CD I had no hesitation in buying it again. Everyone on the recording seems to be having a good time, and the music ranges from pure jazz to a couple of more "ballad" type songs.

The US import I received is in Mono (which is probably better as some early stereo records seem too "separated"). Excellent quality and fine performances. 18 tracks, but it all fitted on one LP as some of the tunes are only between one and two minutes long.

I recall the film was partly fun, part "lump in throat" with a mushy ending, but well worth a viewing.

Not one of the best known soundtrack albums, but worth having it in your collection.
