Not OK

"I was thrilled with the price, but the CD doesn't contain the entire song. Aside from "Oklahoma!" and "Poor Jud is Daid", the songs are the first verse and the chorus. "People Will Say We're In Love" is Laurie singing, but Curly's verse isn't there at all. Too bad the sound clips don't show that...."
Vocal Gems from OKLAHOMA!

"The 1947 London cast of OKLAHOMA! recorded only highlights from the score arranged in 3-song medleys and spread over 4 78 RPM sides. You get sense of the story (wth the songs all out of order) and the performances - even the great Howard Keel - do not come across well due to the age of the masters. A curio for collectors who want every version of the score and possibly for Keel fans. Otherwise stick with the more complete albums. (WARNING: Total playing time for these OKLAHOMA! selections is about 16 minutes. Even with the bonus tracks this is a very short CD!)"
