When one thinks of musicals from Hollywood's golden age, the initials MGM come almost instantly to mind. Indeed when veteran song-and-dance man George M. Cohan was negotiating a film based on his colorful life story, his first choice was Metro--until a falling out with studio chief Louis B. Mayer. But L.B.'s loss eventually became Warner Brothers'--and film history's--gain when the Burbank studio's Cohan musical became a massive, patriotic hit in the opening months of World War II. As chronicled in this vibrantly restored, first-ever complete soundtrack for the film, it was a compelling twist of fate. James Cagney turns in one of the screen's most ostensibly unlikely--and ultimately indelible--musical performances (netting him his only Best Actor Oscar ®), teaming with studio music director Roy Heindorf to update Cohan's once-quaint turn-of the-century patriotic ditties ("You're a Grand Old Flag," "Over There," "Yankee Doodle Boy") and infectious vaudevillian chestnuts ("Give My Regards to Broadway," "Harrigan") with bracing dollops of the studio's '40s orchestral sass--and, just months after Pearl Harbor, some crucial historical parallels. Also included are four bonus tracks that remarkably survived the film's preproduction, including an outtake of "You Remind Me of My Mother" and voice-and-piano-only rehearsal versions of "Give My Regards to Broadway" and "You're a Grand Old Flag" that further underscore Cagney's deceptively effortless ability to sell a song despite his limited musical gifts. It's a long overdue showcase for a true American film musical gem. --Jerry McCulley

3 out of 5 stars Yankee Doodle Dandy Review.......2006-11-03

It's an old movie with an old soundtrack, but I loved the movie, I love the music, and I'm very happy with my purchase.

5 out of 5 stars Yankee Doodle Dandy.......2006-06-30

Excellent in black and white and color. James Cagney also got a medal from a President. (President Reagan!} If you like entertainment...this is it!

5 out of 5 stars Amazing! Wonderful! Just buy it - you won't be sorry!.......2005-03-05


I am so very glad I bought this CD. I own the DVD of "Yankee Doodle Dandy" and watch it all the time, so I almost didn't buy this, wondering if I really needed yet another CD.

Well, thank God I didn't pay any attention to that dumb idea!

If you love "Yankee Doodle Dandy" and Cagney, you just have to buy this soundtrack. It's like being able to take the movie with you anywhere ... it's not just the songs - as others have said - but also includes bits of Cagney's voice-overs, even the tap-dancing from the end of "Little Johnny Jones." And since the audio system in my car is better than my TV's, it all seemed even bigger, richer and better. (George M. would love that!)

Wonderful, wonderful stuff!

5 out of 5 stars What a find!!.......2003-06-15

I haven't been able to see this movie on TV since Turner bought it (don't get TCM), but if you've seen the movie several tims, as I have, listening to this CD is very nearly as good as watching it all the way through. (I'm so delighted with it that I'm even willing to forgive TCM for putting a paper ad inside with the disc.)

Monumental effort must have gone into this soundtrack, given the age of the original recordings. The tracks here are crisp, clear, and bright, with no evidence of how long ago they were first put down. The editors were also generous in their inclusion of dialogue that ties some of the tracks together (for example, we hear the man tell Johny Jones to watch for the skyrocket, then we hear the skyrocket as it leads into "Give My Regards to Broadway"). There are a couple of places where the endings are slightly abrupt but this is because, in the movie, the music fades into extended dialogue.

The only bit of dialogue I expected to hear in a song, but didn't, is in "Over There" near the very end of the film, when Cagney/Cohan has fallen in step with the soldiers going off to WWII, as they're singing "Over There", when the soldier nearest him says something like, "What's wrong, old timer, don't know the words?" and Cagney says, "Seems to me I do" and starts singing along. That's minor and pales next to how wonderful the rest of this soundtrack is.

One of the biggest treats on this CD is that we get to hear some of Cagney's tapping, notably in "Give My Regards to Broadway", "You're a Grand Old Flag", and - one of my favorite moments in movie history - when he dances down the White House stairs to "Yankee Doodle" near the end).

The outtake is not a humorous one, simply a track they decided not to use. It and the rehearsal tracks are all just the performers voices with piano accompaniment. I especially enjoyed hearing Cagney rehearsing "You're a Grand Old Flag".

If you like Cagney, if you like Cohan's music, if you like movies "the way they used to make them", or if you're not ashamed to get a little choked up with patriotism once in a while, you will not be disappointed in this CD!

5 out of 5 stars A Soundtrack Every American Should Own.......2002-09-23

Finally! If you own that Hollywood Soundstage abomination of the "Yankee Doodle Dandy" soundtrack you can finally pitch it. Here is the real article. Rhino (Turner Classic Movies Music) lovingly restored the music from the beloved "Yankee Doodle Dandy" motion picture starring James Cagney. This soundtrack sounds astonishing considering it's 60 years old. It's very obvious some loving care was taken in it's production for which we all should be greatful. The liner notes also are great with informative text and wonderful photos from the movie. The marvelous George M. Cohan songs gives one goosebumps and bring tears to the eyes. We all need this type of patriotic pep rally, especially in these tough times. As I've said, this soundtrack belongs in every American's home just as much as that "Grand Old Flag"! I believe there are plans to release the movie on DVD, hopefully soon.

Album Description

"Leaving The Nest" has a surefooted timelessness in an era of trends being cycled and recycled through at an exhausting speed. Musical and historical ghosts of The South haunt the corners of this album like a Faulknerian travelogue while bringing to mind the works of Terrence Malick, cwhose movies leave it to the viewer to find meaning in all the ambiguous beauty. "...a charming piece of backporch Americana that brought to mind the likes of Iron & Wine, Beachwood Sparks, and even a bit of Bright Eyes" - Washington Post.

Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars An incredible find.......2007-01-24

I didn't know what to expect when I bought this album, so that meant that I had no expectations for what it might be. This allowed me to be blown away by this whole album. The songs have a kind of unfinished quality to them, as though he recorded these songs with the intent of cleaning and polishing them later but then decided that he preferred the earthen sound that leaving them be brought out in them. His voice is like that of a softer spoken Jack White.

This album reminds me of better times.

5 out of 5 stars He's Got The Hook.......2006-12-18

Simply an outstanding debut! It is so encouraging to hear young songwriters like Sufjan Stevens, Joanna Newsom and now Benjy Ferree - each with their own melodic key to the kingdom. Ferree's music comes at you from so many directions - T-Rex rock on Dogkillers! to chamber pop lullaby on In The Woods - each song a self-contained, hook-laden wonder. This is craftsmanship folks - raw but unerringly right. I can hardly wait to hear where he goes next. Thanks to Joey Burns of Calexico for recommending him. I happily second that.

5 out of 5 stars sold on the first listen........2006-12-11

warning: with one listen, "in the countryside" and "the desert" are sure to be buried in your brain all day.
this fits the domino/drag city web almost like a missing piece.
more upbeat than smog and oldham--not as goofy as the silver jews.
[don't get me wrong--i love all three of them as well!]

5 out of 5 stars Bela Virgin.......2005-05-07

This is the first Bela Fleck album I ever heard. I finally bought this cd after wearing out my cousins. At Last We Meet Again is my favorite track, but they are all amazing. GREAT album.

5 out of 5 stars The essence of fusion.......2004-05-19

The word 'fusion' is used to mean various things.. most often jazz-rock, occasionally world-beat or Indian/jazz or any number of other things. Only rarely does a band require something more inclusive like 'every-damn-thing-at-once-fusion'.. and if there's any group that truly embodies that philosophy, it's Bela Fleck and the Flecktones. Cuckoo's Nest was the first Flecktone album made after the departure of keys/harmonica man Howard Levy, which left the others lots of space to fill - in addition to the usual banjo, bass and synth-drum, now they're also using a small arsenal of triggers, loops and samples to layer and echo things as they go along. According to Bela everything was arranged to be performed live, and if you haven't seen this incredible group onstage for yourself, you might have a hard time believing they can really do so many things in real time. But believe me, they can and they do. I have no idea how - my theory so far is possession by aliens that can bend our known laws of physics - but they do.

A quick spin through this disc, like any of their others, leaves one's head spinning with a mad whirl of flavors too thick and varied to pick apart (which would be missing the point anyway). "Vix 9" is spacey jazz, subtly addicting despite its mad complexity. "Bumbershoot" is a blazing jazzy rock groove that doesn't get jarring despite some insane time changes. "Blues for Gordon" is basically what it says, but that Fleckian banjo gives it a flavor you'd never ordinarily expect from the blues. And so it goes.. from ambient drift to piano-augmented rap to Celtic medley to third-world percussive interlude, every track here has its own quirky identity. And somehow in these talented hands it sounds nothing but natural. The spoken lyric of "The Message" (an oddity in their mostly-instrumental cataogue) may be a little cliched, but it only helps convey just how down-to-earth they are.. despite having a level of technical skill that leaves other mortal musicians humbled and drooling.

As usual I can't quite recommend this disc as the ultimate Flecktone album (that's Little Worlds) or the most definitive collection (that's Live Art). But they're *all* well worth looking into, and any one of them makes a good first pick for the curious. You'll never hear a banjo the same way again, and your ideas about musical boundaries & genres might just get a little adjustment as well.

5 out of 5 stars What doesn't kill a band often makes it stronger........2000-07-10

This CD was recorded right after Howard Levy (piano, harmonica) left the band to stay home more with his family. The band plays over 200 live dates each year! Bela Fleck, Victor Wooten, and Future Man (Roy Wooten) decided they were having too much fun to quit. So they became a trio (thus the title of the CD). This album will take you from uplifting jazz type numbers to smooth soothing music to foot-stomping jams. Check it out!

5 out of 5 stars Desert Island CD.......2000-06-15

If I was on a desert island... This CD would be one I MUST bring with me. This is a wonderfully lively, soothing, and outright enjoyable CD. I was already hooked on Bela when I bought this for my Dad--now *he's* hooked. ;)

This is simply a must-have for anyone who likes the Bela Fleck style of jazz, and for fans of DMB-type rock who're looking to expand their horizons, it makes a great stepping stone.

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Just the best!!.......2004-02-13

These two recordings are some of the best things the storied group recorded for Columbia. Gene Puerling was at his near best on Love Nest, perhaps spurred on by Clare Fischer's three wonderful vocal arrangements for the group--Yesterdays, This Heart of Mine, Fairyland. The vocal arrangements here are full of lush dense chords, contrary motion, wide intervals,and impecable intonation. This, combined with just great singing---especially the upper register combination of tenors Bob Morse and Clark Burroughs--helped make the group one of a kind. Frank Comstock's orchestral backings compliment things as only he could (with a healthy influence of Robert Farnon).

The second recording, All Over the Place, is the second release with new tenor Don Shelton (Morse moved down to sing baritone). A Nightingale Sang In Berkeley Square, Gloca Mora, Sand In my Shoes, Bali H'ai, and the gorgeous Autumn in New York lead the pack. Also, check out the vocal gymnastics on Italian street Song, and Fairbanks, Alaska. Orchestral arrangements are by Marty Paich who did a spectacular job on the groups' All That Jazz recording, as well as several notable recordings with Mel torme.

There are few musicians that I really miss, one of them is Jack Nitzsche. From his pure old-school movie soundtracks towards more experimental pieces like Cuckoo's Nest, his repertoire was amazing! Listen to this record and you hear the ultimate proof!

5 out of 5 stars umm juicy fruit.......2004-10-30

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

3 out of 5 stars why did the producer alter the final song?.......2002-10-25

This review does not focus on the music on the cd, but rather it focuses on the production of it. I have had the album of this for 25 years and have repeatedly played it for creative inspiration, and I've always loved the films closing track - and I purchased this cd to replace my well-worn album, and for some reason the producer felt it necessary to change the last song and repeat a verse thereby making the song longer. As a result the song doesn't flow properly and the crescendo is altered and is ultimately ruined. Shame on the producer who felt this was necessary. Shame. I will play my album instead.

5 out of 5 stars Music For Pleasure.......2002-02-18

C.S. Lewis, author of "The Lion, The Witch, And The Wardrobe" series, once described a piece of music as having the ability to make you want to, "Laugh, cry, dance, and make you want to mind your manners all at the same time." This description fits the score to the brilliant film "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" to a T. The entire flow of classic composer Jack Nitzsche's soundtrack is delightful. Every piece of music sparks a different emotion. Definitely of equal caliber to the film. If you're in need of music for pleasure, Jack Nitzsche's score to "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" will do the trick.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent soundtrack.......2001-04-28

Excellent soundtrack. The songs with symphony music are really relaxing. I especially like the song called Bus Ride to Paradise because when I play it in my car I can picture in my mind what happens in the movie when I hear this song. Also I guess it makes me feel like I'm taking a car ride to paradise with Jack. Ha Ha. I also like the songs that have the Hawaiian sound to them.

5 out of 5 stars One of THEE and THE great rock albums of the last 20 years.......2005-08-22

That's both THEE, as in a '60s garage-rock affectation, and THE, as in a definitive. I recently went back and bought the enhanced CD version of The Vipers' debut album (originally released Christmastime '84 on vinyl on the PVC label) so I could more readily show my LP-lacking friends in Fresno what they've been missing these past two decades. Surprise! -- even though I knew the disc by heart, it was a mad, wild experience all over again listening to the CD cranked on the computer's surround sound.
In the late '90s, Vipers frontman Jon Weiss was as responsible as anyone for the latter-day garage resurgence as the creator of the Cavestomp! music festivals in NYC (1997-2001), conjuring by alchemy a host of legendary acts we never thought we'd see in person (? and the Mysterians, The Remains, The Pretty Things, The Chocolate Watchband, Richard & the Young Lions, The Standells and most especially The Monks) and putting them on bills with neo-garage bands past, present and future (Fleshtones, Lyres, Plasticland, Chesterfield Kings, Fuzztones, The Swingin' Neckbreakers, The Mooney Suzuki and yes, The Vipers, too). And that's why Steve Van Zandt gives Weiss his propers every week on his radio show.
But back in the '80s, Weiss, a onetime Fleshtones saxman, was the gangly, youthfully nasal-voiced, maracas-wielding leader of a quintet that absorbed the sounds of many '60s rock, blues and psychedelic records, found out where the over-the-top point was, and then climbed over it, simple as that. Anyway, they had a cool, sleek name and, on this album, a sound to more than back it up.
The opening tune, "Nothing's From Today," with its chiming guitar opening the door into another dimension ... truth is, I preferred the original version (which appeared on Voxx Records' "Battle of the Garages Vol. 2" LP months before), with its dag nasty fuzz guitar intro; the "Outta the Nest" remake was maybe too clean. But looking back, it was a nitpick -- and besides, the enhanced CD has both takes. Then, there was the convincer -- track 2, "Now I Remember," an explosion of sight, sound, mind, drums, chimes and Eastern-influenced guitar madness, sent far over the wall midway through with a wailing scream from Weiss. The rest was just dessert (and just deserts): the brutal-nasty fuzz guitar line that provided the kick to The Standells' "Medication"; the romp-stomp of The Loved Ones' "Surprise Surprise"; the poppy, full-on, near-insane swirl of "Tellin' Those Lies"; "Cheated and Lied," which sounded like the theme to a '60s secret agent series; "Borrowed Time," commenced with a Middle Eastern guitar curlicue that set the tone to another agent-series-theme-in-wait; the appropriately gloomy overtones of "Dark as My Day" and "Not to Be in Love"; and the band's most sensitive song, the smart strummer "Tears (Only Dry)."
In its time, this was a 12-song record that went 12-deep. (The enhanced CD has eight bonus cuts, including the aforementioned original "Nothing's From Today," the ace stomper "Doin' It Well" and a rough version of "We're Outta Here" used as a flexidisc with Ron Rimsite's legendary garage zine 99th Floor.) But -- pick your favorite hot stove league reason -- "Outta the Nest!" didn't bust out beyond its rabid but limited audience. And sadly, for several reasons, this was good as it would get for The Vipers, who were done by the end of the '80s.
But good music is eternal; Weiss and music fiends like him have certainly demonstrated that over the years with their zeal to expose the great rock'n'roll of the '60s to the audience it deserves. Maybe someone should do the same good turn for The Vipers and get this disc and listen to what they've missed and then spread the word ...

5 out of 5 stars Amazing Harmonies and Garage Fuzz!.......2004-10-22

WOW -- what a great collection of tracks by this great Garage act from NYC's "Cavestomp" days. This has almost all the material they ever recorded & it starts off really strong with the album it taks it's title from. Excellent recording and playing on this. The only drawback is near the end of the cd both suffer, and there's even a stylistic shift to more down-tempo and 'blues' sound - but the majority of the disc is tight and well-produced Sixties Mersey beat influenced Garage Pop well worth the price.

5 out of 5 stars Memories of College Radio Days.......2002-12-24

These guys were something else in the mid-80s when I first encountered their sound. Check "Cheated and Lied," a track that is spot-on Knickerbockers! Treading territory familiar from the Flaming Groovies, Hoodoo Gurus, and REM, the Vipers knew their influences and paid faithful homage to their psychedelic sonic heroes in that acid/power pop revival of the 80s. Very glad to encounter this release with the bonus tracks. "Primitive, man." says the man on the back. "Crunchy, man." say I.

5 out of 5 stars A blast from the (near) past.......2000-02-17

Superb garage rock in a melodic vein. Fans of the Cynics, Fleshtones, Lyres, etc. will be suitably impressed. Extra tracks make an already formidable album even better.

5 out of 5 stars Damned fun.......2005-07-05

Jim Crow are a bunch of foolz reppin' the ATL. That is what they are, and they don't try to be anything else. The production is stellar, top-notch. PA is tight on "I Know, You Know." Oomp is crunk on "Bandits." Mr. DJ laces "Flaw Boyz" very nicely. Jim Crow is entertaining, funny, and not terrible lyrically. They are surprisingly sound in that category, especially given their musical style (hoes, crunk...). Crow and Jazzy Pha do a great job on the somber "One Of These Days." Buy this CD... Hell, you can get it for like 74 cents here on Amazon.com!

5 out of 5 stars gettin dirty with jim crow.......2002-03-16

Jim Crow is claiming dirty south and they prove that they can be one of the best, most exciting and promising rap groups from the south. The CD is loaded with great down south funk. The beats (done by ORGANIZED NOISE) are so tight any club will be crunked up! there are few collabos on the cd like TOO $HORT makes a guest appearance on ''That Drama (Baby's Mama)'' and Juvenile on ''Flaw Boys'', but overall Jim Crow hold it down on their one throughout the cd. The best track on the cd is ''Crow 5''...Mr. Mo, Cartel, and Polow TEAR IT UP! The lyrics are tight and imaginative...I heard they're coming out with something new this year..cant wait for that ish to come out!

5 out of 5 stars it is one of the best CD's out of the South this summer.......1999-11-08

The South is now a force to be reckoned with in hip-hop and Jim Crow has come to stake its claim as one of the hottest groups out of the South. Along with the Youngbloodz and the rest of the Attic Crew they have set Atlanta on fire. If you didn't know you need to buy both albums today and that's on the blow!

2 out of 5 stars Disappointed.......1999-10-07

folks..when I read the reviews and heard that Jim Crow was the next big thing to come out of the south, I bought this album..what I got however, were tracks on par with the latest No LImit or Cash Money release. I am an east coast fan to the very end, but I give every region of hiphop a chance and am sorry to say that these guys just aren't on the same ATl level as Outkast or Goodie Mob. I just hope Music WOrld lets me exchange it..nuff said. Peace

4 out of 5 stars Odds are that you will love it!.......2004-10-05

Another criminally overlooked band. For whatever reason they never got the recognition and album sales they should have. This CD is very good from beginning to end. Not a flash in the pan type of band. They sound similar to how Guster sounds today. "Heard You Wrong" could be played on Guster's Keep It Together and I don't think anyone would notice the addition. And I mean that in a good way so if you are not a fan of Guster or even if you are check out the Odds. At these prices you're getting a sure thing for your money.

5 out of 5 stars Bent to Last.......2003-03-23

"Nest" is the 4th set from this Vancouver band and has been described as the Lovin' Spoonful, Badfinger & Hollies with a 90's sensibility. Early in their career, they toured with Warren Zevon. As a fairly new discovery for me, "Make You Mad" is currently riding at the top of my own personal Top 10 with its throbbing guitar line & Craig Northey's breezy vocals, "When I call you beautiful, it's cause I can; and when you think I'm sucking up, I sort of am." The opener "Someone Who's Cool" was a modest hit, "It was the suit that got me the gig; it was the tear that got me the girl." "Hurt Me" thunders propulsively with breezy Beach Boy-like background vocals, "Low on meat & high on flies; you were hunted down by packs of lies." "Heard You Wrong" has a pretty melody with acoustic guitar predominating with an addictive guitar line on a dreamy breakup song. "Tears & Laughter" pumps up the amps with driving electric leads. Odds give some great hooks, a sweet pop melody combined with a cutting lyric on "Nothing Beautiful," "Out to rot when the going got tough, cockroaches turn adversity to immunity." "Say You Mean It Wondergirl" is a breezy thrill ride while "Out Come the Stars" is a midtempo radio-friendly harmony fest. "Pails of blue glass beads and baubles in the toilets of the supermodels," Northey intones on a whimsical "Suppertime," somewhere bewteen fantasy & utopia. The CD concludes with "At Your Word," a thundering rocker that references the Big Bopper & Buddy Holly, "I'll take you at your word & as far as I can throw you, leave you with the baby & I hardly even know you." "Nest" is an excellent set that mostly thunders, occasionally coos, but creates a great tension between the power pop hooks and the cutting edge lyric. U Snooze, U Lose with this little diamond. Enjoy!

5 out of 5 stars Something beautiful.......2002-12-24

This album is obviously close to slipping from the ranks of the available. Which is strangely appropriate if tragic. It has to be played a fair number of times to be fully appreciated. The 3 singles hopefully will keep you listening long enough to notice that there is brilliance elsewhere. Just try the 3 and 4 cuts, 'Hurt Me' and 'Heard You Wrong'. 'Hurt Me' is a racecar-fast workout of classic guitar riffs played off against inscrutable but amusing wordplay. 'Heard You Wrong' is a funny and bloodchilling portrait of a just-dumped guy lying in disbelief in bed. Also try the last 4 cuts in sequence, from the sweet 'Out Come Stars' to the raving 'At Your Word'. It's music for the brain delivered with haunting melody and killer pop-rock hooks. Don't let it die.

5 out of 5 stars You guys are my Favorite.......2002-08-09

hey, i would just like to let you know, that the personalities of the members of the band are well reflected in their lyrics with great certainty and confidence. i have know two of the members since i was very young, and met the other two when i grew up a bit, and i just wanted to give props to them, and although they arent together anymore, their words have effected me positivly and will stay with me forever.

3 out of 5 stars On the high end of three.......2000-06-13

Not too much to say concerning the music, which is what they all say: a darn good band in need of a single and some air time. I'll tell ya' what's odd, though. On the back of this album, three of the four bandmembers look like Ben Folds or one of his Five. It's uncanny if not creepy...could the key lie in harmony?
