Music reviews of A Connecticut Yankee (1955 Television Cast)
Music Review: Good sound, desecrated show
Rating: 1 Stars
The sound on this recording is excellent. I don't see what the other reviewer was complaining about. However the show was bowdlerized. Damns were changed to hecks. And other innocuous puerile substitutes. For instance: He sings: Come sit thee near./Place thyself upon my knee./Put an an end to thy fear/For I live but thee in Camelot. She sings: Oh no not here/Where observed by all we'll be./Should my mother appear/She would surely scold and damn a lot. "Damn a lot" was changed to "nag a lot." I never should have bought it.
Karloff tells her she's been married "thrice." Then she sings a song about having been married 7 times. That's half the song. There are two more choruses she does not sing. She's been married 15 times. Of course I'm referring to "To Keep My Love Alive," a brilliant and riotous number, and also Hart's last lyric, as everyone knows. She leaves the verse off too.
1955. Television. Family values. I should have known. The kiddies (mustn't pervert and corrupt the kiddies) wouldn't be watching a show like this anyway. And the grownups - ?
I've now had 3 CDs (all R&H) put out by AEI. And they've all been lousy. A Connecticut Yankee. Dearest Enemy. And (this is an exorbitantly overpriced piece of garbage) I Married an Angel. AEI is not responsible for what was televised (except that they put Angel together), but 3 out of 3 is not a good average.
This thing cost me if I recall $17. I threw it away. And I'm angry and disgusted.
