Details: Product descriptionBrand NewAmazon.caCynical types will accuse Disney of milking the « greatest » concept until it’s drier than Tinkerbell’s fairy dust (« Supercalafragilisticexpealidocious, » « Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Da, » and « Heigh Ho » were hits off of Vol. 1; « Bare Necessities, » « It’s a Small World, » and « Some Day My Prince Will Come » stole the show on Vol. 2), but a glimpse of this installment’s track listing is all it’ll take to squash their suspicions. Once again running reverse-chronologically, Vol. 3 opens with Jonatha Brooke’s gorgeously achy ballad « I’ll Try, » from 2002’s arguably not-so-greatReturn to Neverland, and gradually reaches back through the years to re-raise the curtain onToy Story 2 (« When She Loved Me, » performed by Sarah McLachlan),The Lion King (« Can You Feel the Love Tonight »),Mary Poppins (Julie Andrews’s classic « A Spoonful of Sugar »),Pinocchio (« Give a Little Whistle »), and a bundle of treasured others, bottoming out at 1933’s « Who’s Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf » fromThe Three Little Pigs. Vol. 3 is not without its weak moments–would a G-rated movie-goers’ poll produceBeauty and the Beast’s « Gaston » orThe Hunchback of Notre Dame’s « Topsy Turvy » on a hits list? Seems unlikely. Still, the bulk of these tracks are, as the includedLittle Mermaid song goes, « Part of Your World, » and the spread of decades they represent proves their staying power. Don’t expect Disney to latch the lid on its inexhaustible archives until a dozen or so of these records, each as strong as the next, beckon you back for more.–Tammy La Gorce
