Music reviews of Billy Rose's Jumbo (1962 Film Soundtrack)Music Review: Not quite what it could have beenPerhaps we've been spoiled by Rhino's superb TCM series, but since those mammoth issues we've expected more from soundtrack albums. Practically every reissue of golden-era music has been touched by their conscientiousness and completeness, from Film Score Monthly's discs to the magnificent "Magnificent Seven." Disappointing then that this comes straight from the Masterworks LP masters. There's probably twice this material in Time Warner's vaults; but evidently Sony BMG owns the musical rights thanks to Doris Day, so we're stuck with a truncated, unsatisfying album with a trebly hissy sound. That said, no album can be totally bad with that supercanary Doris, who positively radiates like the sun here; nor with Schnozz, whose brief but touching "The Most Beautiful Girl in the World" led to his late-autumn career with Warner Bros. Records and some beautiful musicmaking; certainly not with its principal orchestrator the great Conrad Salinger -- tragically, his last work (he died shortly after, either of a heart attack or by suicide; the Internet record is unclear); the orchestra plays with a faintly somber cast, as though its members realize this is the end. Though "Billy Rose's 'Jumbo'" may not be top-drawer MGM it is still fine music; if only someone in Narberth or in Sony's licensing operations had cared enough to do this right.
