 | You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown (1999 Broadway Revival Cast) [Read More ...]
Description: It's easy to see why You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown is so popular. With its simple set and small cast, it has become a staple of high-school drama and small-scale productions all over America. Of course, this doesn't necessarily translate into a grandiose Broadway show, but thi... |
 | 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 ... |
 | A New Brain (1998 Original Cast) [Read More ...]
Description: William Finn is an acquired taste. Not only is this lyricist-composer one of the few proponents of the (mostly) sung-through musical, but he favors unlikely subjects. His 1992 musical Falsettos was about love, a bar mitzvah, AIDS, and mortality; A New Brain deals with a brain tum... |
 | Disney Presents The Music Man (2003 TV Film) [Read More ...]
Description: Fresh from his Broadway triumph as accountant-turned-con-man Leo Bloom in Mel Brooks's The Producers, Matthew Broderick next tackled another of the American musical theater's most lovable rogues, The Music Man's Professor Harold Hill. As shepherded by the producers of the multi-... |
 | You Never Know (2001 Studio Cast) [Read More ...]
Description: A madcap farce of pre-Depression dandies and mistaken identities, Cole Porter's 1929 musical You Never Know receives its world premiere recording based on a successful 1991 revival at the Pasadena Playhouse. This delightfully old-fashioned show is presented as a European-style ch... |

 | Steel Pier (1997 Original Broadway Cast) [Read More ...]
Review: Steel Pier has no variety:I love Kander and Ebb, but this show was just one dance number after another without much variety and hardly any recognizable plot. I tried to return it to Borders for store credit and they wouldn't even take it back. Unless you just want an album of d... |

 | 110 in the Shade (1999 Studio Cast) [Read More ...]
Description: While 110 in the Shade isn't as familiar to audiences as Harvey Schmidt and Tom Jones's The Fantasticks (but then what is?), the original Broadway production was a modest success in 1963 and this 1999 studio recording makes a compelling case for its evocative and beautiful music.... |
 | Billion Dollar Baby (Revival Cast) [Read More ...]
Description: This might be one of the best shows you've never heard--or even heard of. Oddly enough, it took almost six decades for Billion Dollar Baby to get a proper full recording. This is all the more surprising since it was the show the incomparable Comden and Green wrote right after the... |

Review: Steel Pier has no variety:I love Kander and Ebb, but this show was just one dance number after another without much variety and hardly any recognizable plot. I tried to return it to Borders for store credit and they wouldn't even take it back. Unless you just want an album of d... |
