Partridge Family, The - Complete List of Extras, including Bonus CD content!

This past Monday saw the announcement of The Partridge Family - The Complete 1st Season. Sony had released the specs and menu screens for the show, but little else. Now they have provided a bit more information, but we've also worked with our contacts in the industry to find out more about the extras, especially the "CD Premium" that's included with the DVDs.
The May 3rd release will cost $29.95, as we've said, but you can pre-order it from Amazon for a great $20.97!! Amazon shows a wrong disc count, though: this is a 3-DVD set, with 25 episodes running 655 minutes. These are all the extras you can expect to find on the DVDs:
"Jump To The Musical Performances" feature
Interviews With the Cast of The Partridge Family (may be the same as the featurettes below)
Featurettes:
"Boarding the Bus": a behind-the-scenes documentary includes interviews with Shirley Jones, David Cassidy, Danny Bonaduce, Dave Madden and the writers and producers of the series. It focuses on the production of the first season, starting with the initial script for the pilot, the pilot's production, and then the show's weekly production thereafter.
"The Sound of the Partridge": a music documentary about picking the songs, making the songs and music, and everything else involved with the soundtrack side of things. It includes never-before-heard details and stories. Look for interviews with Shirley Jones, David Cassidy, and many of the backgound singers, musicians, and even the arrangers.

Bonus episodes of The Partridge Family, 2200 A.D. animated series:
"Car Trouble"
"My Son the Spaceball Star"
Previews of other Sony Pictures Home Entertainment products
...And, of course, the "CD Premium". Everyone's been wondering what's on it, and Sony hasn't revealed the contents. But our industry sources got to the bottom of this! It seems that there has been some "lost" material which was recorded for inclusion on the Partridge Family albums that came out during the first season, but never got included for various reasons. Nor were they ever released later on for CDs, either...until now! So these 7 Partridge Family songs are - we're told, anyway - seeing the light of day for the first time. Here's the track listing we were given:
"Together (Having A Ball)"
"Let The Good Times In"
"All Of The Things"
"The Love Song"
"Stephanie"
"Baby, I Love You"
"Find Peace In Your Soul"
Those first two songs are from the Pilot episode, and fans have been looking for official Partridge Family recordings of these for ages. Now they can finally have them, along with DVDs of the show itself!
Sony also provided box art for the release, and an official synopsis of the title. Here are both (the art is almost identical to the shot we've shown previously from the Billboard article; a DVD logo has been added to the bottom right, and the spine is re-arranged):
C'mon, get happy! It's TV's favorite family of rock 'n' rollers, who hit the road in their groovy bus and turn the world on to catchy pop songs such as "I Think I Love You," "I Woke Up In Love This Morning" and "Somebody Wants To Love You." The Partridge Family's six members feature mom Shirley (Shirley Jones) and her five kids: Keith (David Cassidy, who is also Jones' real-life stepson), Laurie (Susan Dey), Danny (Danny Bonaduce), Tracy (Suzanne Crough) and Chris (Jeremy Gelbwacks). And who can forget the Partridge's frequently exasperated manager, Reuben Kincaid (Dave Madden), who would become an important member of their family whether he liked it or not? The show debuted in September of 1970 and made a teen idol out of David Cassidy, selling millions of records along the way. They may have parked that bus a long time ago but THE PARTRIDGE FAMILY is still making fans happy!
