5.0 out of 5 stars WHAT A GREAT CD!, July 7, 2002

By 

Matthew (Virginia United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Story & Songs Of The Wizard Of Oz - Special Edition: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (Audio CD)

This is the best Wizard of Oz CD that I have ever heard. It is true stereo sound and has wonderful dialogue along with all of the songs in the movie. It was amazing when I was listening to it through my headphones. I had a really great time listening to it. I am the biggest Wizard of Oz fan of all time and if you like the movie than you will love this CD. I encourgage everyone to purchase this CD. It was a wonderful pop-up picture of all four main characters in front of Emerald City. It defies all other Wizard of Oz soundtracks!

5.0 out of 5 stars COMPACT "OZ" : ALL THE FUN ON ONE CD, April 16, 2000

By 

Dewey Mee (ELLENSBURG, WA.) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Story & Songs Of The Wizard Of Oz - Special Edition: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (Audio CD)

This is one of two OZ Soundtrack CD'S. This one features the songs and a large portion of the dialogue from the cherished movie. The sound quality is crisp and clear, with an exquistely beautiful picture of Judy Garland asleep in the Poppies on the CD itself. The compact, Pop-Up Packaging Design is just so cool it defies description. The beloved cast is all here: Judy Garland, Bert Lahr, etc. and Margaret Hamilton's whoopingly wild dual roles as Miss Gultch and The Wicked Witch. Forget about the kids...this is the ultimate "Party Soundtrack" for ADULTS who can fully appreciate what OZ is REALLY all about.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is THE ultimate CD for all Oz lovers!, October 4, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: The Story & Songs Of The Wizard Of Oz - Special Edition: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (Audio CD)

This is truly the best CD of Oz that I have ever heard! It has every piece of music included in the movie. It has outtakes like "the jitterbug", extended versions of songs, alternate versions, rehearsals, and excellent recorded quality. It is every Oz lovers dream!
