One of the very few memories of my mother that involve her actually being happy was from when I was ten years old. She took me to the movie theater to see Fiddler On The Roof. I have never been a big fan of musical theater, but this film stayed with me forever…and a huge part of that was the music. Which brings me to the soundtrack album, which I obtained many years later. The music for this film is still stunning, amazingly tuneful. And after all of these years, I can still see the scenes as they played alongside the music. I can still see the players, mostly Tevye, who was played by an actor I never saw anywhere else named Topol. For me, the fact that this album can bring to mind so many images of the film it accompanied means that it has done its job very well.
The version I have is a 30th Anniversary edition, which is great because it contains a few tracks that were in the film but not on the original soundtrack album. It also contains “Every Day Now”, which was not in the film because the scene was cut. It is sung by one Paul Michael Glaser (he was in the film), who a few years later became best known as Starsky in the TV series Starsky & Hutch. The orchestra is conducted by John Williams, and all of those wonderful fiddle solos are played by Isaac Stern. So many classic songs here…”Tradition”, “If I Were A Rich Man”, “Sunrise, Sunset”. “Matchmaker”, and “To Life”. The film was fantastic, but for me, this is a masterpiece of how to be able to experience the greatness of a movie at home by simply playing the album. This is a great record, and truly one of my best childhood memories. [First added to this chart: 11/24/2020]
