Amazon.co.uk Review
Fittingly to the jungle theme, the songs on The Jungle Book soundtrack (1967) are absolutely wild. "The Bare Necessities" and "I Wan'na Be Like You (The Monkey Song)" are highlights, and neo-swing talisman Louis Prima goes ape in the role of King Louie. This record stylishly marks the end of an era; the film was the Disney studio's last animated musical before Walt Disney's death and the long period of mediocrity that stretched all the way to The Little Mermaid in 1989. As a special treat to Disney collectors, the CD release includes demo recordings, songs that weren't used in the film, and an interview with the Sherman brothers songwriting team. --John Sanchez
