Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

Irving Berlin's Wild West Show-themed romp Annie Get Your Gun has long been a Broadway evergreen, including a wildly successful modern revival starring Bernadette Peters and Tom Wopat. But its original 1950 MGM film translation was fraught with production problems and recasting; Judy Garland was initially signed to star and even recorded her vocal numbers before being dismissed (due largely to her notorious personal problems) and replaced by Betty Hutton. While several of Garland's performances as Annie Oakley have been released on other compilations, this generous, 31-cut release not only marks the CD debut of the film's original soundtrack (originally just eight tracks), it compiles all of the various Garland versions (including the first release of a spectacular stereo Garland version of "There's No Business Like Show Business") onto its second half, essentially re-creating the "Annie that never was," in addition to the first complete release of the Hutton score. Also included is a superbly illustrated and well-annotated booklet that tells the complete story of the show's Broadway origins and rocky journey to Hollywood. --Jerry McCulley

4.0 out of 5 stars Classic Movie Musical Soundtrack, Sound May Disappoint, December 9, 2000
The long awaited soundtrack to ANNIE GET YOUR GUN has finally appeared on CD courtesy of Rhino/Turner Movie Music. This newly remastered release includes much more material than appeared on the old long out of print LP. The LP was limited to 8 selections while the new CD has 18 selections from the completed Betty Hutton version, as well as 13 selections from the aborted Judy Garland version. This is the first time the Garland recordings have appeared together in one collection. In keeping with Rhino's policy of using materials closest to the original music masters (a policy which I support), the sound quality is bound to disappoint some listeners. Indeed the ANNIE music masters have not survived the years in the best condition. Some selections are in newly remixed stereo; others are from acetate sources, and others lifted directly from the final mixed tracks. Surprisingly the Judy Garland recordings generally sound better than the Hutton recordings. All this leads to a variable listening experience that changes from selection to selection. However, this does not negate the importance of this release or Rhino's decision to finally make this material available. In my opinion, Rhino need not make any apology for their efforts in preparing this release. It is for this reason I recommend this CD to fans of this movie and musicals in general. Some of the various cast albums may represent ANNIE better than the film soundtrack as the movie dropped some songs and altered others to appease censors of the day, but the movie remains a great favorite of many. As is common with Rhino, the CD booklet is comprehensive with great photos and plenty of information. Lets hope Rhino/Turner can keep supplying us with more classic soundtrack releases.

3.0 out of 5 stars CD Less than DVD, March 14, 2002
By Grandcosmo (Pasadena, CA) - See all my reviews
Anyone who says that Judy Garland would have been better than Betty Hutton in the role of Annie Oakley either didn't see the outtakes of Garland (looking wan and in a terrible fright wig) or saw something that wasn't there. At that time in her life Judy Garland would not have brought to the role anything approaching the energy and vitality that Hutton brings to it.

That said, Garland does manage to do a better job on some of the ballads than Hutton ("They Say Its Wonderful", "Let's Go West Again"). What is amazing is that Hutton sounds as good as she does on the soundtrack because she recorded all of the songs in a single day! Overall though Betty Hutton is fantastic and her performance can't be judged on the soundtrack alone, unlike Garland she stayed in character and sang her numbers in the character's voice and that makes a big difference in the film. Hutton's greatness in the role is all on the screen.

Overall the sound quality of the CD is not nearly as good as the DVD. I agree that the sound quality on Garland's numbers is generally clearer than on the Hutton numbers. Particularly Hutton's "You Can't Get A Man With A Gun" which sounds tinny and distant on the CD while in the film it is a showstopper (Robert Osborne on TCM said that when he saw the film in Seattle the audience broke into loud applause in the movie theater after that number).

See the film for evidence of Hutton's wonderful performance.

4.0 out of 5 stars IRVING BERLIN, HOWARD KEEL---AND BETTY HUTTON AT HER BEST!, November 22, 2000
The 1950 film version of ANNIE GET YOUR GUN has been out of circulation for 27 years. It has finally been released on video and DVD. Now you can enjoy the rip-roaring Irving Berlin score on CD. Howard Keel has a strong, clear baritone, and Betty Hutton is appropriately loud, brassy, and energetic in numbers like "You Can't Get a Man With a Gun" and "Doin' What Comes Naturally". And who can forget the entire cast singing "There's No Business Like Show Business"? The extra tracks (including some by Judy Garland, MGM's original choice for "Annie") make this CD a treat for lovers of the American film musical. Highly recommended!
