Kim Criswell and Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane are among the vocalists featured on the the U.S. release of The John Wilson Orchestra’s That’s Entertainment: A Celebration of the MGM Film Musical, to be released by EMI Classics on September 25.

Conductor and arranger Wilson, who reconstructed most of the scores for the recording, is joined by Matthew Ford, Sarah Fox, and Curtis Stigers. A deluxe edition of the album will feature a CD and DVD with music videos, a making-of featurette, an interview with Wilson, and five sing-along tracks.

The album includes “Steppin’ Out With My Baby,” “I Got Rhythm,” “Singin’ in the Rain,” “Love is Here to Stay,” and many others, all performed using Wilson’s reconstructions of the original orchestrations.
