Album Cover
Sigmund Romberg, Gordon MacRae, Dorothy Kirsten
The Desert Song

Album US 1963 on Capitol Records label
Soundtrack (Score, Musical)

"Stereo Production Note: To achieve the effect of a performance in the theatre, this recording was engineered to spread the orchestra solidly in front of the listener with the singers' positions always sharply defined on stage above. Movement was blocked out for dramatic effect, as in the opening scene and Side 2 Band 2; the total illusion is that of sitting in the best seat down front."
