Mame [Original Cast]
(1966)

by
Original Cast Recording
The idea of turning Mame, which had already been a successful novel, straight play, and film (the last two under the title Auntie Mame), into a musical comedy was a great one, since it provided the opportunity to do what the musical theater does so well: showcase the talents of a major female actress/singer. The choice of composer/lyricist Jerry ...

Darin never was lacking in ambition, trying more styles than most other pop singers. That doesn't mean he was consistent, as the four-disc box set As Long as I'm Singing: The Bobby ...

Collectables' 2003 Jim Nabors two-fer Love Me With All Your Heart/By Request collects the genial crooner's 1966 album Love Me With All Your Heart and 1967's By Request onto one deluxe CD.

Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass
By late 1966, it seemed as if every TV commercial and every pop arranger had latched onto the Herb Alpert "Ameriachi" sound -- at which point the resourceful originator of that sound began to pare it down and loosen it up a bit. S.R.O. (Standing Room Only), referring to the Tijuana Brass' string of sold-out concerts, is an accurate title, for this ...

Louis Armstrong
Annotator Bob Porter begins his liner notes to Hip-O Records' Louis Armstrong compilation Gold by citing a chart statistic: Leadoff track "What a Wonderful World" became a Top 40 hit in 1988, 20 years after it was recorded, due to its inclusion in the movie Good Morning, Vietnam. That is a clue to the approach that the collection takes -- this is ...

Mame [Original Soundtrack]
(1974)
by
Original Soundtrack
Although it was Angela Lansbury who starred as Mame Dennis in the mid-'60s Broadway version of Mame (1966), she was not enough of a box-office draw to secure the silver screen adaptation. Despite the advice of her former husband and concurrent business associate Desi Arnaz, Lucille Ball took the role, all but ruining her career in the process. The ...
