Music reviews of Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory: Music From The Original Soundtrack Of The Paramount Picture

Music Review: You'll Want It NOW!
Rating: 4 Stars

If you were one of the unlucky children whom didn't manage to beg your mother into buying this for you in the 70's , nows your chance to have it as a new fangled CD!

Be forwarned: This is an old school soundtrack album! That is , it has all the songs , but it also has some dialogue and sound effects.
( suitable for your answering machine! "Is the grisly reaper mowing" ? ). If you love this movie , this will bring back pleasant memories , and make you wonder why Gene Wilder never had a singing career! My only complaint about this package , is it is touted as the "25th Anniversary Edition" , and yet is identical to the original vinyl release! No bonus tracks / outtakes. No booklet full of pictures , lyrics , stories : just a lonely single folded over piece of paper , with a company stooge blathering about how wonderful the film is. ( We know that , nimrod , why do you think we bought it?. ). That said , buy it for the music , and don't worry any bonuses , it's a tasty treat for your ears and heart!

Description of Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory: Music From The Original Soundtrack Of The Paramount Picture

Originally released in 1971, Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory was an imaginative film that drew as much inspiration from the leftover vibes (and drugs) of the psychedelic '60s as it did from Roald Dahl's fanciful children's book, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. If you doubt it, check out this special 25th anniversary edition of the original soundtrack album, which features lyrics and music by Anthony Newley, who was a major influence on David Bowie and whose work on this film has clearly inspired '90s rockers from Veruca Salt (who took their name from the spoiled rich girl) to the Butthole Surfers (who could easily cover the sinister, trippy "Wondrous Boat Ride". C'mon, everybody, let's sing: "Oompa loompa/Doomp-ity-do/I've got another lesson for you...." --Jim Derogatis
