About:
"The Walt Disney Records Legacy Collection of Pocahontas is a glorious release featuring the entire beautiful and sweeping Alan Menken score and Stephen Schwartz lyrics. I've always been a fan of the film Pocahontas and it's music, however after listening to this complete score I have a newfound appreciation and love for it. Hearing the songs unedited and complete as they were intended was a joy to listen to. This is what the Legacy Collection is all about and this release has become my favorite.

I'm in love with the cut songs that are presented on Disc Two. The alternate version of "Just Around the Riverbend" is a fascinating listen as you get an idea of story elements that were either cut or expanded upon in this version. Another highlight is the beautiful song "In the Middle of the River". I'm so glad these demo songs were included. They are just as brilliant as the original songs. The included reprise of "If I Never Knew You" in the track "Farewell" gives the score a surging endnote that I hadn't truly appreciated until my listen through.

The illustrations included in the booklet are just as beautiful as the music. The booklet also contains production notes for an even closer look at the making of this Disney classic. I highly recommend picking up a copy to enrapture yourself in this masterwork from Alan Menken & Stephen Schwartz. " Pocahontas Legacy Lives On Aug. 9 2015
