The "Golden Age" referred to here spans The Jazz Singer and the advent of the talkies to the death throes of the old studio system in the 1960s. So vast was the era's musical landscape that even this 42-track, double-disc anthology can't encompass all its peaks. Not surprisingly, the bulk of this collection originated with the Tiffany's of the screen musical, M-G-M, a body of work whose riches here encompass both pop-cultural bedrock ("Over the Rainbow," "Singin' in the Rain," "There's No Business Like Show Business," etc.) and some less familiar, if equally delightful star turns: Clark Gable gamely "Puttin' On the Ritz"; the sassy, 1948 original of "The Lady Is a Tramp" by Lena Horne; and a loopy duet of "Baby, It's Cold Outside" by Esther Williams and Ricardo Montalban. Fred Astaire's elegant, epochal reign at RKO and M-G-M is represented by "Night and Day," "Let's Face the Music and Dance," and three others, while Metro mainstays Gene Kelly and Judy Garland share equal time and billing. It's not perfect--Cagney's "Yankee Doodle Boy" and/or some Sinatra seem more logical choices than the odd "bonus" duet of Casablanca's "As Time Goes By" and "Lara's Theme" from Dr. Zhivago that close out disc one--but it's a stunning, surprisingly comprehensive primer on the Hollywood film musical nonetheless. --Jerry McCulley

5 out of 5 stars They were right--there is NO business like the show business they did way back when !!!.......2006-11-18

Everything that happens in life
Can happen in a show
You can make 'em laugh
You can make 'em cry
Anything
Anything can go....

The clown with his pants falling down
Or the dance that's a dream of romance
Or the scene where the villain is mean
That's entertainment!

The lights on the lady in tights
Or the bride with the guy on the side
Or the ball where she gives him her all
That's entertainment!

The plot and the hot simply teeming with $ex
A gay divorcee who is after her ex
It could be Oedipus Rex
Where a chap kills his father
And causes a lot of bother

The clerk who is thrown out of work
By the boss who is thrown for a loss
By the skirt who is doing him dirt

The world is a stage,
The stage is a world of entertainment!

This two CD set amply proves that the musical melodies and lyrics from the golden age of the Hollywood musical remain unsurpassed to this day. This generous two CD set offers 42 incredible songs from Hollywood classic musicals. Most of these fine numbers are indeed from MGM, as Amazon correctly notes; but there are some RKO numbers and even a little from Warner Brothers. Thank goodness, though, that most of these songs came from MGM movies; MGM was the only studio that could boast that it truly had "more stars than there are in the heavens."

I love so many songs on these two CDs. Of course, there's the unforgettable classic "Over The Rainbow" sung by Judy Garland; she also performs "Easter Parade" and "Get Happy" on this two CD set and she carries most of the tune for "I Got Rhythm" even though Mickey Rooney helps her a little. I love "Baby, It's Cold Outside" for its' romantic overtones; and Lena Horne's "The Lady Is A Tramp" is flawless! We also get a rare chance to hear Clark Gable sing in "Puttin' On The Ritz;" and Bing Crosby's "Going Hollywood" may be brief but it's a fun song anyway.

There are two "bonus" tracks on the first CD: "As Time Goes By" from Casablanca and "Lara's Theme" from Doctor Zhivago. "As Time Goes By" is a good choice; it is another unsurpassed classic song that brings back memories and touches even the hardest of hearts. "Lara's Theme," however, is from the mid 1960s and I don't consider this period to be part of the "golden age" of Hollywood musicals.

The liner notes are excellent and they offer wonderful photos of the stars as well. The cover art is well done and the reverse cover art tells which movie each song is from and who is performing each song. Moreover, the quality of the sound is excellent especially when you consider that these numbers were recorded quite a few decades ago.

In short, this superlative two CD highlights the glory of the Hollywood musical when a certain type of sophistication dominated professional movie production. I highly recommend this CD for fans of Hollywood musicals, classic pop vocals and fans of the artists and actors who perform on this two CD set.

5 out of 5 stars One of the best cds I ever bought. .......2006-06-07

What an amazon collection of songs! This is bar none my favorite cd just because of the variety and the quality of songs on it. I love music from this era, and this cd is the perfect companion to my life. Love it! Buy it, you won't regret it for a moment!

1 out of 5 stars Never Sounded Better.......2006-03-16

Apart from the great selection of soundtracks, what really makes this compilation top value is the quality of the sound processing. Executed with finesse, these tracks sound better than when first issued and many are unedited, fuller versions: like "Singing In The Rain", for example. Throw in the great price, and this double disc set is a "must have" for all lovers of classic movie music.

It was once said by the songwriters of that era - "There are two artists you want perform your songs on the big screen, they are Fred Astaire and Judy Garland they sing it just the way we wrote it, for which you will have a guaranteed hit on your hands"...well, this collections certainly has some merit to that statement...because with Judy Garland and Fred Astaire performing seven songs each, there must be something to it.

This collection of musicals still has the magic that we remember from those bygone years...but as long as we have the labels and networks who play and show these wonderful films of yesteryear, they will never be forgotten...hats off to Rhino Records, George Feltenstein (producer) and Doug Schwartz (engineer) and Turner Classic Movies for sharing those 42 selections from 42 films...celebrating decades of the tunes and artists that gave it their all...from what it commonly called "The Hollywood Dream Factory"...The Golden Age of Hollywood Musicals is still among us...gotta love it!

      Pianist/composer Bob James made his fame as top-selling smooth jazz pioneer and his theme song to the TV show Taxi is one of the most familiar melodies in syndication. But his roots are in straight-ahead jazz. On this CD with bassist James Genus and drummer Billy Kilson, James pays tribute to his piano heroes and drops some surprises into the mix. His treatment of Nat "King" Cole's "Straighten Up and Fly Right," is driven by hip-hop rimshots, and Mal Waldron's classic ballad "Soul Eyes" is syncopated with a Latin lilt. James's most impressive act of syncopated subversion is his take on the Petula Clark hit "Downtown." Somehow Bob James manages to keep it smooth and jazzy. --Eugene Holley, Jr.

      5 out of 5 stars Bob James Gem.......2005-12-02

      I am writing this review while I am listening to this CD for the first time. This CD is amazing. I have been listening to Bob James music for the past 20 years and he is one of my favourite piantist (My favourite pianist is Chick Corea).

      This CD is truly fantastic and the quality of music is first class.

      I hope that Bob James sticks to this style of playing although his playing style is fantastic but this type of music is on a much higher level.

      Recommended for all Bob James Fans

      5 out of 5 stars Ein absolutes "Muss" für Jazz-Puristen.......2004-04-21

      Für die Puristen unter den Jazz Fans eine sehr lohnenswerte Anschaffung. James geht mit dieser Platte zurück zu seinen Anfängen. Absolut geniale Interpretationen von Jazz-Größen wie Red Garland, Oscar Peterson, Glenn Gould, Ahmad Jamal, Nat King Cole, Bill Evans, Duke Ellington, John Lewis, und Mal Waldron.

      5 out of 5 stars Bob James, ridin' high.......2004-03-28

      Sometimes the prodigiously talented have a harder time making a lasting impression in the jazz world than those below their talent level who have a more singular vision. Bob James strikes me as such a player. To my reckoning, he has made only three truly great records among the many he has recorded: the two with Earl Klugh, One on One and Two of a Kind (why Columbia has never issued these two short and aurally compatible records as one disc can only be attributed to corporate greed), and this one.

      The problem? He's too glib, too capable of playing with absolute proficiency in any and every style be it pop, blues, fusion, acoustic jazz, funk, and third stream. But not usually with riveting and spectacular singularity. Consequently he typically finds himself in the awkward category of jack of all trades and master of none. Whereas players like Mal Waldron or Don Pullen or Ahmad Jamal or Abdullah Ibrahim, who define a particular style and pretty much stick with it their entire career, often end up making a more lasting contribution.

      Here, he confines his playing to the relatively restricted tonal and dynamic configuration of the acoustic piano trio, playing a kind of tribute program in which he pays honor to some of his main influences: Red Garland, Oscar Peterson, Glenn Gould, Ahmad Jamal, Nat King Cole, Bill Evans, Duke Ellington, John Lewis, and Mal Waldron. One could do worse than have these masters as their mentors! The thing that lifts this disc out of the pedestrian category of simply "tribute disc" into the category of essential piano trio music is that James, nearer the end of his career (one supposes) than its beginning, has the distance and perspective to have thoroughly assimilated his influences and to have transmuted their base pianistic elements into alchemic gold. OK, that's not quite the way to put it, because to describe the contributions of these masters as "base" is simply inapt. What I'm trying to get at is to say that the mere regurgitation of others' pianistic moves has a kind of baseness per se, and only when the pianisms of others can be thoroughly transformed can their elemental contribution achieve its properly glory, which is what happens here. Of course, it helps mightily to have lured perhaps the absolute top jazz rhythm duo, James Genus (bass) and Billy Kilson (drums) onto his project. Kilson, late of that truly magical band, The Dave Holland Quintet, especially stamps these proceedings with an aural alchemy. But the real magic is the leader's ability to brilliantly evoke the masters all the while sounding little if anything like them.

      This is the record I've been waiting 20 years for Bob James to make. I applaud him for forsaking what I'm sure has been an entirely monetarily successful career as a mainly fusion guy to return to this acoustic jazz context, especially risky in face of such monster modernist players such as Frank Kimbrough, The Bad Plus, Jason Moran, and EST, not to mention monster newcomers such as Tord Gustavsen, Jean-Michel Pilc, and Taylor Eigsti. But James is equal to the task, and delivers a startlingly beautiful and amazingly accomplished recording.

      Recommended without reservation.

      5 out of 5 stars Bob James does it Again!!!.......2004-02-25

      Anything Bob James records is great and once again he proves why he is one of the top musicians of all time. Bob plays freely, improvising throughout the CD. Whether playing Traditional Jazz or Smooth Jazz, Bob has a way to make you feel good. The first Bob James Trio album was a classic. It has been a long time coming but this one was worth the wait! Fantastic!!!
