Billboard reviewed the album in its issue from 30 September 1950, giving it 86 points out of 100 (which indicated an "excellent" rating) and writing: "The new MGM flick shows early symptoms of a hit; this sound track album figures to do equally as well. Judy Garland and Gene Kelly sell their numbers with their usual show-wise sense of timing and projection. Phil Silvers joins Kelly on a pair of duets, 'Dig' and 'Heavenly', displaying his affable, friendly comic style. Gloria Haven gets a side in 'Mem'ry Island', a ballad. Best of the score's new tunes are the ballads, 'You' and 'Star', in that order."[1]
