#138 minutes of Porgy and Bess in Stereo

Since my clip of four songs in stereo from the 1959 film is closing in on a quarter million views, I thought I would do the rest of the score. So here is the entire LP (minus Sammy Davis, Jr., who was replaced by Cab Calloway on the LP) synched to the film.

Working on this, I had much more respect for the orchestration than I did when viewing the bootleg - I don't know if it was done by Previn (uncredited) or Courage and Salinger (credited) but they're very faithful and rich.

Also, take a look at the restored title sequence!
