Product Description
Album Description
Digitally remastered edition of this 1959 soundtrack. The Five Pennies is a semi-biographical account of the cornet player Red Nichols, with Danny Kaye on the lead role. Red Nichols dubbed Danny's cornet playing on the film, whilst others musical stars lending a hand include Louis Armstrong (as himself), Bobby Troup, Shelly Manne and Bob Crosby. The film proved to be successful, popular (it would gain four Academy Award nominations) and the perfect vehicle for Danny.

It's about time,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Five Pennies (Audio CD)
I first saw the movie as a child in the 60's to which I was hooked untill today. Found the old LP in my friend's dad's record collection in the mid-70's and recorded it to tape. Without a doubt, this is my most listened to music selection and when my two boys were born I must have sung these tunes to them hundreds of times. Finally !!!

It took forever for this soundtrack to come out on CD. WHY? It's one of the best around, EVER. Next to Beethoven's 9th, The Five Penny Saints is one of the BEST things ever written. Just my humble opinion... DON'T miss it! Now, if we could just the rest of Danny's movies out on DVD, we'd be set!

It's here, it's here! I was in the record store, browsing...had earphones on and ....there it was right in front of me the holy grail of cd's - the five pennies soundtrack! I almost did not go to the movie I went to see so I could listen to it..but I waited and did and it is as wonderful as when I heard it on vinyl. Get this, hear Louis Armstrong at his best, some great Dixieland Jazz...enjoy!
