Decca's Album No. 74 contains seven of the tunes from M.G.M.'s production, "The Wizard of Os". The Jitterbug, Munchkinland, If I Only Had a Brain, If I Only Had a Heart, The Merry Old Land of Oz and We're Off to See the Wizard are played by Victor Young's Orchestra and sung by the Ken Darby Singers. Stand-out tune of the whole lot is, of course, Over the Rainbow as sung by Judy Oarland. Others have recorded this hit melody, but the vibrant Judy takes top honors.{{cite magazine}}: CS1 maint: date and year (link)
