Long out of print, now remastered for the first time ever, let Gypsy entertain you, let Gypsy make you smile! This new CD features vocal performances by Natalie Wood and Rosalind Russell, and though it’s actually a bit painful to listen to Russell, it’s also a treat—we’re allowed behind the scenes to hear why Broadway and nightclub performer Lisa Kirk was hired to do the vocals for the film. (However, it’s all Russell on “Mr. Goldstone, I Love You,” and on “Rose’s Turn” it’s both Russell and Kirk.) We also get to listen to six previously unreleased gems: the film version of the classic “Rose’s Turn” and rare outtakes of “Together Wherever We Go,” “Some People,” “Small World,” “You’ll Never Get Away from Me,” and “Everything’s Coming Up Roses.” You’ll love the accompanying booklet with notes on the making of the film, and it also contains some great photos. Some people sit on their butts, but don’t be one of them—get up and get out and get Gypsy. From Rhino Movie Music (www.rhino.com). —Blase DiStefano
