Title: My favorite broadway album
Review: I love this collection. The fact that it has man of La Mancha" instead of "impossible dream""makes it a better selection for me! I have so many versions of the most popular songs. Means I finally get the next best which are lovely: run freedom run,your fathers hands and the river song from the full Monty ....my favorite broadway album!!!!!!

Title: POOR EXCUSE FOR SOME GOOD THEATER MUSIC
Review: The best of Broadway? Sure, if you consider the best of Broadway only those songs taken only from RCA Victor cast recordings. Expect the expected: Tracks from "Ragtime," "Chicago," "42nd Street" and "Man of La Mancha," sung by the likes of AudraMcDonald, Bebe Neuwirth, Jerry Orbach and Brian Stokes Mitchell. Including a live recording of Barbara Cook warbling "Losing My Mind" from her "Mostly Sondheim" CD isn't exactly kosher. But then again, neither is this gimmick-riddled release. Curtain up?Half-way, maybe. Light the lights? Dim them, please.

Title: Moderate Quality
Review: I believe that the show selection for this CD was excellent. However the song selection and song order were not. Why pick "Your Daddy's Son" from Ragtime when you can have the amazing and fantastic "Prologue" from the same show. Also I believe that a mistake was made by slecting "I Don Quixote" from Man of La Mancha instead of the much more listenable "Impossible Dream." Also the overture from Gypsy is not the proper song to start out a CD. Perhaps the "Overture" from The Phantom of the Opera.This is however an excellent example of showtunes for inexperienced members of the theatrical world.
