5.0 out of 5 stars FINALLY!, March 24, 2004
By A Customer
It took forever for this soundtrack to come out on CD. WHY? It's one of the best around, EVER. Next to Beethoven's 9th, The Five Penny Saints is one of the BEST things ever written. Just my humble opinion... DON'T miss it! Now, if we could just the rest of Danny's movies out on DVD, we'd be set!

5.0 out of 5 stars My cd collection is now complete!, March 3, 2004
By A Customer
It's here, it's here! I was in the record store, browsing...had earphones on and ....there it was right in front of me the holy grail of cd's - the five pennies soundtrack! I almost did not go to the movie I went to see so I could listen to it..but I waited and did and it is as wonderful as when I heard it on vinyl. Get this, hear Louis Armstrong at his best, some great Dixieland Jazz...enjoy!
