| In a watershed moment for Columbia Records, this original Broadway cast recording began the rapid climb of the company into the stratosphere of pop culture consciousness.
Produced by company president Goddard Lieberson, it sold five million copies and spent a staggering 480 weeks on the Billboard 200 album chart. To place the album in an accurate historical perspective, it was the Thriller of its generation. It is timeless music - due to the rich arrangements & performances ... Read More: |

| Love this CD ! Will bring the Movie to me while doing other things ! For the ones that say "it is not Lee Marvin singing"....HE IS ! Your "ear" has to be very bad not to recognize his voice ! Great songs...And Clint sings too ! Don't care what they say but he does sing good ! And for the ones that say "his weak voice..." , that weak voice is what makes him special. Favorites: "Gold Fever" ( can play it forever) , "Wandering Star" ( beautiful ) and "The best things of Life" ( cheerful and fun ! )
I can play this ... Read More: |

| If you follow my reviews you will find that I enjoy newer, less classical musicals usually. HOWEVER, Camelot was certainly enjoyable to listen to. The songs are enjoyable and give a nice outline of the show, the singers are pleasant, the lyrics are pleasing and clever. While listening to the two recordings of Camelot I own, I decided that this recording is better than the Camelot (1960 Original Broadway Cast) 1960 recording. I came to this conclusion because the singers on this album have more personality which makes the ... Read More: |

| Though there were elements of GIGI that bothered me greatly, even as a little girl, before I knew what a courtesan was, the soundtrack is undoubtedly beautiful and the partnership of singer/songwriter duo Lerner and Loewe really succeeds in capturing the mood of this novella. Young Gigi (Leslie Caron) comes to live with her aunt (Hermione Gingold), a courtesan (definition: high-class prostitute or mistress, especially one associated with rich, powerful, or upper-class men who provided luxuries and status in exchange for ...

| This is the best version of Brigadoon. The story and music are so romantic and charming, and the original cast always delivers the most heartfelt performance. The voices of David Brooks and Lee Sullivan are sincerely warm, and the ladies hold their own when it comes to the vocals. A lot of other reviewers complain about the poor sound, but quite frankly, it didn't bother me at all. I didn't even think about the sound quality....I was so delighted by the enchanting music. Skip the movie version....many of the best songs are ... Read More: |

| On this CD, the main disadvantage are the voices. The girl who dubbed the singing voice of Cyd Charisse is shockingly talented, but Gene Kelly's voice is, as always, flat and gray and incredibly boring to listen to, and while Gustafson has a very pleasant voice, he falls far short in his attempt to sound like an old-fashioned Gaelic tenor. However, some music is so good that it can salvage any voice that sings it. Such is the music of Brigadoon. Musical highlights include... The hymn-like, extraordinarily beautiful "In thy ...

|
| This studio recording of the Lerner and Loewe classic is quite good. In fact, until the Jack Cassidy/Shirley Jones version was finally released on CD, this was by far the best CD available of the score. The singing is very good, the sound quality is excellent, and all the songs are here intact. So is the dance music--all of it. Which brings up one of the problems with McGlinn's studio recreations. He is a fanatic for completeness. He goes overboard with it. At least in this recording he hasn't resurrected songs that were cut out of town as he did ... Read More: |
