    I still want to see some kind of release for the Buddy Baker scoring sessions for the original three Winnie the Pooh featurettes that comprise The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh. The actual original film vocals have never gotten any kind of official soundtrack release anywhere on Earth that...

    Sad news I only recently discovered: Al Kasha, co-writer of the Pete's Dragon score and the theme songs to Freaky Friday and The North Avenue Irregulars as well as some songs that ended up on The New Mickey Mouse Club, died a couple of months ago. His Oscar-winning themes from The Poseidon...

    In memory of Helen Reddy, she once told Radio Disney this was her favorite song from Pete's Dragon:

    Putting a recording by a boy band in a period piece was a cash grab, plain and simple. And as for the music of that Paint the Night thing, one word: no. A successor-in-interest to the Main Street Electrical Parade has to sound better than that.

    I'm excited beyond belief. But this makes me wonder what parts of the movie and the books are going to make it to the stage adaptation.

    My very first Broadway show was Beauty and the Beast some time in late July 1994 after doing my first community theater show, when I was 11 and in New York City with my mom and (now-deceased) grandmother; most of the original cast was still in it except, sadly, Tom Bosley. It made me think "this...

    I'm actually more excited about Roger Rabbit because it means hopefully the other hybrids still have a chance of expanded reissues, and whether they come from Disney or Intrada matter less to me than how much of the songs and score they cover. Peter Pan will come eventually*, but I don't know...

    Nothing about that cover says Beauty and the Beast to me. If anything, it looks more Fantasia-like tonally. I still can't wait to see the track listing to see what has been added to it. As for the original soundtrack putting "The Mob Song" before the title song, IIRC that's because cassette...

    Wow. The first time I saw the film was for the 50th anniversary reissue, and even that was 30 years ago.

    They also just did a 60th anniversary Disneyland special that was about everything but Disneyland.* Now the company is honoring their record label's 60th anniversary with what? Some reissues of Annette or anything from the three generations of Mouseketeers? Nope. Some more live-action Sherman...

    Well, if they don't abandon it, what can we expect to see next? Here's whose anniversaries are coming up in the next few years: 2016 Alice in Wonderland (65th Anniversary) Atlantis: The Lost Empire (15th Anniversary) Beauty and the Beast (25th Anniversary) Bedknobs and Broomsticks (45th...

    Come back? Technically, it never left. The labels just forgot about it for awhile while they tried making everything LOUDER AND LOUDER. Nice to know The Mouse is taking part in the vinyl revival, too.

    Complete scores of all the studio's canonical animated films and live-action/animation hybrids would satisfy me. There are plenty of live-action musicals worthy of expanded scores that will probably not be added to the Legacy line but still should be released. Intrada should try to get the...
