Lerner and Loewe's elegant, indestructible musical is one of those rare Broadway triumphs to be transferred to the big screen with practically every note and lyric intact. Warner's plush film version also preserved for posterity the definitive performances of Rex Harrison as Professor Higgins (though Jack Warner originally wanted Cary Grant) and Stanley Holloway as Alfred Dolittle. But if the decision to replace Broadway's radiant Julie Andrews (then a stranger to Hollywood) with the more bankable Audrey Hepburn remains a tad controversial, there is little doubt that Miss Hepburn made a captivatingly chic Eliza Dolittle; albeit with a singing voice provided by game dubber-for-the-stars, Marni Nixon. My Fair Lady was lovingly restored to its full Technicolored, widescreen glory in 1994, and from the spectacularly revitalised soundtrack comes this sumptuous rival to its legendary Broadway counterpart. Greatly expanded to present every beautifully constructed number in its entirety, as well as previously unreleased nuggets from André Previn's luminous, Oscar-winning underscore, the earlier CD of the 1964 soundtrack album now sounds distinctly moth-eaten.
