I wanted to find out just what material is new to new Disney box set, "A
Legacy in Song", so that I could justify purchasing it.  Below are the track
listings for each of the 3 CDs in the set.  Tracks marked with "**" are NOT
available on any other CD at this time.  If a track is available on at least
one other CD,  I list one of those CDs.  It *may* be available on other CDs
as well (especially since the original 2 CD Disney Collection was re-released
as a 3 CD set; the Disney Collection volumes I used are from the original 2
CD set).

I used Jad Jordan's track listing to compile this checklist.  Thanks Jad!

Disk One - The Early Animation

** "Turkey in the Straw" - Steamboat Willie, 1928
	Original Soundtrack, with unrecognizable sound effects. Kind of scratchy
	sounding, but enjoyable.
	
   "Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf" - Three Little Pigs, 1933
	Book says isn't original soundtrack, since all of the song isn't in the
	short. This version is the famous one from the released album.

	This is from the Johnny Appleseed section.
	
   "Lavender Blue (Dilly, Dilly)" - So Dear To My Heart, 1949

    (Disney Collection, Volume One: 17)
    
** "Higitus Figitus" - The Sword in the Stone, 1963
	This is the original recording, and IMHO better than what made it into
	the film. Extra lyrics and different tempos.

Disk Two - The Later Animation

   "Supercala..." - Mary Poppins, 1964
    (Mary Poppins Sound Track)
    
   "A Spoonful of Sugar" - Mary Poppins, 1964
    (Mary Poppins Sound Track)
    
   "Chim Chim Cher-ee" - Mary Poppins, 1964
	This is the extended version with the lyrics where Bert looks up the
	chimney.
    (Mary Poppins Sound Track)
    
   "Winnie The Pooh" - Winnie The Pooh and the Honey Tree, 1966
    (Disney Collection, Volume One: 16)

    (The Sherman Brothers: 16)
    
** "Nobody's Problems" - Bedknobs and Broomsticks, 1971
	This song was cut from the final film. This recording is Angela Lansbury
	and a piano, and is a demo track. The song is kind of melencholy, and
	the lyrics indicate Miss Price is missing Mr. Browne. She says that it  
	is nobody's problems that she misses him. I would imagine it would fit
	in the movie after he has left to go back to London, and before she sees
	the German troops.

    (Disney Collection, Volume Two: 17)

    (Disney Collection, Volume Two: 23)
    
   "Best of Friends" - The Fox and The Hound, 1981
    (Disney Collection, Volume Two: 18)
    
   "Perfect Isn't Easy" - Oliver and Company, 1988
	I was surprised this song was included, and not "Why Should I Worry".
	They mention "Once Upon A Time in New York City" by Ashman and Menken,
	as if it was going to be included.
    (Oliver and Company Soundtrack)
    
   "Part of Your World" - The Little Mermaid, 1989
    (The Little Mermaid Sound Track)
    
   "Under The Sea" - The Little Mermaid, 1989

   "Kiss The Girl" - The Little Mermaid, 1989
    (The Little Mermaid Sound Track)
    
   "Be Our Guest" - Beauty and the Beast, 1991
    (Beauty and the Beast Sound Track)
    
   "Beauty and the Beast" - Beauty and the Beast, 1991
    (Beauty and the Beast Sound Track)

Disk Three - Live Action, Television and Theme Parks

** "A Whale of a Tale" - 20000 Leagues Under The Sea, 1954
	Kirk Douglas in a recording. It's been awhile, but I don't think it's
	the soundtrack recording.
	
** "Old Yeller" - Old Yeller, 1957

** "Pretty Irish Girl" - Darby O'Gill and the Little People, 1959
	Sean Connery in a demo recording. Not at all bad because I expected the
	worst. But I can see why they replaced him. He isn't a trained singer,
	and you can tell.

	Annette Funicello and Tommy Sands

	Annette Funicello and The Beach Boys
    (The Sherman Brothers: 11)
	
   "That Darn Cat" - That Darn Cat, 1965
	Not the version in the film, but the one recorded by Bobby Troup that
	was released and was a hit single.
    (The Sherman Brothers: 12)
    
   "Fortuosity" - The Happiest Millionaire, 1967
    (The Sherman Brothers: 15)
    
   "Mickey Mouse Club March" - Mickey Mouse Club, 1955

** "Wonderful World of Color (Main Title)" - WD's Wonderful World of Color, 1961

** "The Spectrum Song" - Walt Disney's Wonderful World of Color, 1961
	Ludwig Von Drake in a cool song, and a spoof on a previous song in the
	collection.

   "There's a Great Big Beautiful Tommorow" - New York World's FFair, 1964
	Carousel of Progress (sniff sniff)

   "Main Street Electrical Parade" - Disneyland, 1979
	Complete with the electronic introduction.
    (Fantasmic)


The Bottom Line: It's hard to justify buying 3 CDs for roughly 1 CD of
		 new material.  If you don't have a lot of Disney's earlier
		 CDs, this is a good deal.  Personally, I only gain another 3
		 songs (in addition to the starred ones) due to CDs I don't
		 have.  I will probably buy it though, just for the Ludwig
		 von Drake and Annette songs.  They probably won't appear
		 anywhere else ever.
