THE MUSIC MAN ( FILM SOUNDTRACK) Warner Brothers Music Inc.Robert Preston, Shirley Jones.
Tracks played...
Main Title / Rock Island / Iowa Stubborn / Ya got trouble! / Piano Lesson/If you don't mind my saying so. / Pick-a -little Talk-a alittle / Marian the Librarian / Gary Indiana / The Wells Fargo Wagon / Lida Rose/Will I ever tell you / Shipoopi / Till there was you / Goodnight my someone / Seventy six Trombones.
A faithful recording of the famous musical including all but one of the numbers from the show. Lavishly orchestrated and ultimately the best buy. Preston sounds more secure than on the stage version and the music is fuller with many people preferring Shirley Jones's 'Being in love' to 'My white night' sung on the stage version by Barbara Cook.****.

This is the "Current Pop" edition of the Hit show FINDING NEVERLAND Which is playing on Broadway now. I think Gary Barlow( who wrote the songs) is instremental in releasing this
album before the Original Stage version appears. It will be very interesting to hear the stage
soundtrack against this. It is however a good album for those who like their music right up to
date.****.
