The Phantom of the Opera (Original 1986 London Cast)

by: Charles Hart

Release Date February 06, 2001

As a PHANATIC, this double box set is a must-have. I must say that the box is cute, it has the complete libretto (with ALL dialogues)... all inside a little cute box.

I used to have a 80' double K7 set, given by my aunt when she saw the Phantom for the first time back in 90'. The main difference is that those K7 had the COMPLETE DIALOGUES, with NO cuts. And these CDs do not have little dialogues... but it still worths buying.

Highlights From The Phantom Of The Opera: The Original London Cast Recording (1986 London Cast)

from: Decca Broadway

Release Date October 25, 1990
I really enjoy the music and singing of the original Phantom of the Opera. I have been looking for just the musical CD for sometime. I play it alot whil I am cooking, cleaning etc. The sound is great and so are the voices of Sarah Brightman and Michael Crawford. The original soundtrack is the best and it gives me such a lift to hear such beautiful voices. I have recently bought a CD of Sarah Brightman just because I have the recording of the Phantom.

On Eagle's Wings

by: Michael Crawford, American Boychoir

Release Date February 17, 1998
I love all the songs in On Eagle's Wings. I have given this CD to many friends and they also love it. I like his rendition of Amazing Grace and On Eagle's Wings has special meaning to me as it was one of my husband's favorite songs. I play this CD a lot and enjoy it immensely.

The Premiere Collection: The Best Of Andrew Lloyd Webber (Original Cast Compilation)

from: Mca

Release Date October 25, 1990
My brother gave me this album for Christmas twelve years ago. What can I say about an album that has 'Memory,' 'Tell Me on a Sunday,' 'Jesus Christ Superstar,' 'Starlight Express,' and 'All I Ask of You?' "Buy it!"

Broadway - The American Musical (PBS Series)

from: Sony

Release Date October 19, 2004
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 and SWEENEY TODD. Also nothing from PACIFIC OVERTURES, BIG RIVER, CHESS, CRAZY FOR YOU, JEKYLL & HYDE, TITANIC, THE SCARLET
PIMPERNEL, FOOTLOOSE- THE MUSICAL, THE FULL MONTY, URINTOWN...
But they couldn't have put it all. I would have done without Lee Remick's
"Anyone Can Whistle", because the show was a flop. I guess because it was Sondheim's first "serious" show...

Consider the Lilies

by: Anonymous, Mack Wilberg, American Anonymous, Janice Kapp Perry, Malcolm Archer, Stephen Harrison Paulus, John Longhurst, Carl J. Jr. Nygard, Crawford Gates, Roger Hoffman, Clay Christiansen, Richard L. Elliott, Mormon Tabernacle Choir

Release Date May 06, 2003
Our church choir sang a few of these songs which I loved, so I decided to order it. It is a very sweet, gentle, inspiring collection of music. Many times when you get a CD, you are fortunate to find 2-4 on there that you really like enough to play regularly. But on this one, every song is wonderful. This music is so spiritually uplifting and peaceful that you will want to play it regularly. Some if may bring some tears it is so beautiful. John Rutter has a way with this type of music. You will probably want to be giving some of these cd's away to those you love.
