Every Night at Seven - Extended Audio - Fred Astaire, Jane Powell - "Royal Wedding" (1951)

Here's an extended version of the Burton Lane / Alan Jay Lerner song, "Every Night at Seven" as performed by Fred Astaire and Jane Powell in "Royal Wedding" (1951). The government officials at the beginning were cut, as was the odd dance music near the end. The revisal of another Lane/Lerner musical, "On A Clear Day" created a great swing arrangement of this song for Jessie Mueller - take a look (after you watch my clip!):

A much underrated musical. Powell really upped her game here by stepping in at the last minute to work with Astaire.

Sad to lose Jane Powell this year

@@boinx1234 Seconded! If the On A Clear Day revival/reimagining brought us anything, it was some fantastic arrangements and Jessie heckin' Mueller.

Most of the time these studio "cutting room floor" edits take away from the musical numbers, but would say that the edits here were actually an improvement - normally not the case. Hate to give the editors credit for paring back the music, but give them credit here - though you wonder, was any dancing lost during those music sequence edits?

Where did you get the cut material from? Was this released on an extended soundtrack?
