Ragtime Music

If you want to find the complete soundtrack, and I'm assuming it has good sound (I don't know because I don't own it, and I don't plan on it), go to screenarchives.com. Type in the name of this soundtrack, and it will be there. There are 48 tracks. I hope that this helps you out to find the CD that you are looking for.

Sorry but, I really question just who are "Hollywood Soundstage Records" (I cannot find a website) that put out this piece of pirated rubbish. All these cowboys have done is copy from the soundtrack of a very poor quality source any of the songs in the movie. If, for instance, in the movie you hear only an abbreviated version of a song, that is exactly what you get on this CD. I do already own the re-mastered DVD from FOX which was released only in 2004, this CD dates from 2001, who knows of what origin, does the word "Bootleg" come to mind? The print quality of the jacket is very poor, and there are several typos in the limited liner notes. Unfortunately I am unable to return this item to the good folks at Amazon, because I already opened the package. My only intent here is to prevent others from being taken in by a sub standard product. I think FOX may eventually bring out their own soundtrack version of what is really an excellent movie. Take heart brave ones, wait for the real thing. The only reason I rate it one star is because, I am prevented from rating it ZERO!

This is a wonderful collection of great songs representing the U.S. The Boston Pops have done a remarkable job in getting each song started nice smooth and then as it goes on, it collects more and more energy until the end of the song, where I was left shivering. My favorites are Alexander's Ragtime Band, When the Saints Go Marching In, and Stars and Stripes Forever. Not only do they sound great, the energy is stunning. I would recommend this cd to anyone who likes classic songs that you can really feel.

This is a nice Sunday afternoon concert. It's popular enough that most everyone will recognize the program. Of course it is well performed. You're toes will be tapping before long!
