This exemplary soundtrack finally treats this deserved classic to a thoughtful and comprehensive rendering (an even more detailed, expanded version was also released simultaneously as a deluxe box) that confirms the enduring power of Harold Arlen's original music and E. Y. 'Yip' Harburg's lyrics. On film, the songs unreeled as a mixture of discreet songs and multi-themed medleys with frequent reprises, a presentation preserved here, epitomized in the 'Munchkinland Musical Sequence.' If not as concise as Bobby McFerrin's legendary, hilarious concert compression of the entire musical story, this telling of The Wizard of Oz relives the film just as vividly. 'Over the Rainbow' is here, of course, precisely where it should be in the sequence, as as timelessly luminous and wistful as ever. --Sam Sutherland Customer Reviews Average Rating: Rating: - Bad sound quality I was very disappointed with this purchase. The sound quality is terrible! I had to turn it down during the music sequences and crank it up to hear anyone singing. It sounds like someone put a recorder up next to the TV screen and recorded it while watching the movie. Rating: - For the "Wizard of Oz" Fan Bought this as a gift for a "Wizard of Oz" fanatic. He loved it and listens to it often. Rating: - OZ soundtrack Love it. My only wish was that it came with the guard chant as they march in front of the castle. Other than that, it's great. Rating: - Wonderful Wizard of Oz My daughter received this for her birthday and absolutely loves it. Item was in good condition and I received within days of purchase. Rating: - The Wizard of Oz The Wizard of Oz does not show on the video screen. I am very disappointed.
