 | The Time-Life Treasury of Christmas [Read More ...]
Review: Another wonderful Time Life Christmas treasure trove:As with the first Christmas CD that I reviewed, which technically goes hand in hand with this particular Christmas CD (originally they were sold as a set), I must say that this one is just as amazing as the other one. As I sai... |
 | Camelot (Original Broadway Cast) [Read More ...]
Description: For one brief, shining moment, there was a place known as Camelot--and this 1961 recording is the only document available of JFK's favorite musical, the one that's been used to describe his presidential administration ever since. Truthfully, Lerner and Loewe's musical score for t... |
 | The Best of Broadway - The American Musical (PBS Series) [Read More ...]
Description: A companion to the fabulous PBS series, the 21-song, 77-minute The Best of "Broadway: The American Musical" provides about as good a single-disc compilation as anyone could hope for. (There's also a five-CD version.) What sets it apart from so many other "best of Broadway" c... |

 | Broadway - The American Musical (PBS Series) [Read More ...]
Review: Could Have Used More Shows:Of course there should have been much more. I remember there been a Metropolian Opera series called CAST ALBUMS- 100 YEARS that was put out for a limited time only and had like five volumes.
As Peter Filichia noted they left out SHE LOVES ME, BRIGADOON ... |

 | My Fair Lady (1956 Original Broadway Cast) [Read More ...]
Description: This recording was produced more than 40 years ago, only in mono, but from the day it was released it was a deserved phenomenon. It out-grossed the mega-hit show for months, and it still holds the record for the most weeks as a Billboard Top 40 album: 292. The reasons are many. S... |
 | Chitty Chitty Bang Bang [Read More ...]

 | My Fair Lady (1959 Original London Cast) [Read More ...]
Description: My Fair Lady is without question one of the greatest shows ever created for the musical theater. It's a charming, hilarious, and touching adaptation of George Bernard Shaw's Pygmalion, pitting flower girl Eliza Doolittle against Prof. Henry Higgins, the self-absorbed and ill-temp... |
 | R. Strauss: Horn Concertos Nos. 1 & 2; Duet Concertino; Serenade for Wind [Read More ...]
Great Strauss performance.:This is a remarkably good recording of a Strauss work which shows his lyrical, romantic style at its best. Excellent sound. |
 | Seven Brides For Seven Brothers (1985 Original London Cast) [Read More ...]
Review: exceptional recording and performance:I find I can't agree with the other appraisals I see here of this delightful recording of this musical. Both Roni Page and Steve Devereaux are truly exceptional with Devereaux in particular bringing a very pleasing baritone and a great chara... |
 | The King And I (1992 Hollywood Studio Cast) [Read More ...]
Description: Anyone who's a fan of Julie Andrews (and who isn't?) will not want to miss this CD. A pet project of expert conductor John Mauceri, this 1992 studio cast was assembled to capture the sumptuous orchestral scoring of the 1956 film version of the Rodgers and Hammerstein classic whi... |

 | Treasury of Christmas: Christmas Spirit [Read More ...]
Good classic songs:My wife's favorite Christmas song is the "Carol of the Bells" and it's not found too much. This version is great, although barely a minute long. Good mix of artists and classical Christmas sounds. Very nice. |
 | Evita [Read More ...]
Review: Excellent Production:This is an excellent version of evita. I prefer julie covington and colm wilkinson to patti lupone and mandy patinkin. Julie to me sounds like a natural evita and colm does a great job; he has an edge to his voice that patinkin most assuredly does not. The... |
 | Classic Kennedy [Read More ...]
Description: Just in case you thought Nigel Kennedy--fresh from his Hendrix tribute album--had left the classical music repertoire for good, think again. On Classic Kennedy, the fiddler is situated with the English Chamber Orchestra in a program that spans from Bach to Satie. (Yes, you also ... |
 | Here's to the Heroes [Read More ...]
A compilation between Australia's favorite export, the Ten Tenors, film score icon John Barry, and famed lyricist Don Black. Here's To The Heroes has all the epic sweep, swoon, swashbuckle, and pure entertainment value of the many great films Barry has adorned with his timeless music. |
 | Home For Christmas [Read More ...]
Review: An almost perfect blend of classic Christmas carols and performers:I have this cd with the Thomas Kinkade cover and insert. The cover of the cd has Kinkade's painting "Village Christmas" with a pine green border. The cd is encased in a nice cardboard jacket with the same design... |

 | Noel! Noel! [Read More ...]
Review: A decent collection from years ago:I was so happy to have recently found this CD. My family had this in 8-track format in the late 70s, and as I recall was just one in a series of Sony Music Christmas albums released in a set. You'll probably never ever find another album contain... |
