Hey there, Hi there, Ho there,
in his latest column Jim Hill reports about the current program of the Walt Disney Records Channel on board of United.
According to this info we can look forward to the following releases by WDW:
1. 18th of March: soundtrack of Piglet's Big Adventure.
Soundtrack featuring Carly Simon, who wrote and performed several songs for the movie and is also performing the Sherman Bros.' "Winnie the Pooh".
Jim: "Carly does an okay job with the classic Sherman Bros. tune".
Carly Simon wrote among others the new song "With a Few Good Friends".
Jim: "It seemed nice enough. Sweet. Simple. Though -- given that I've already forgotten what "With a Few Good Friends" sounded like -- I guess that I can't say that the song was all that memorable."
2. 1st of April "O Mickey, Where Art Thou? : The Voices of Bluegrass Sing the Best of Disney"
Jim: "Songs like "Circle of Life," "You'll Be In My Heart," "Baby Mine" and "When She Loved Me" are rendered simply and sweetly with banjo, guitar and fiddle. More to the point, Disney's recruited some of country's top talents to warble these classic tunes. Folks like Ronnie Milsap, Sonya Issacs and Collin Raye provide inspired vocals for this recording."
You can find the whole column with even more interesting non-music stuff at: http://www.jimhillmedia.com/articles/03142003.1.htm
Yours sincerely
Dirk
