With Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's 1939 movie masterpiece set for big-screen theatrical rerelease this Christmas by Warner Bros., the Turner Classic Movies Music/Rhino Movie Music soundracks partnership takes another trip down the Yellow Brick Road with the release of The Story & Songs From The Wizard Of Oz . The new, nearly-78-minute audio CD (a major expansion of 1956's multimillion- selling M-G-M monaural soundtrack LP) features all the favorite songs and scenes from the original movie, telling the whole enchanting tale -- in splendid digitally remastered stereo sound. The Story & Songs From The Wizard Of Oz stars the voices of Judy Garland (Dorothy); Frank Morgan (The Wizard); Ray Bolger (The Scarecrow); Bert Lahr (The Cowardly Lion); Jack Haley (The Tin Woodman); Billie Burke (Glinda); Margaret Hamilton (The Wicked Witch); Charley Grapewin (Uncle Henry); Clara Blandick (Aunt Em); and the Singer Midgets (The Munchkins), with backing from the M-G-M Studio Orchestra and Chorus. Meanwhile, if you want just the music and nothing but the music, Turner/Rhino's definitive two-CD Wizard Of Oz original soundtrack collection features all the great songs and score from the film, plus extra music recorded but not used in the final cut.
