Customer Reviews

The BEST of Karaoke Times!!
This is without a doubt the best karaoke version of a Broadway show I've ever heard!

I've purchased or listened to dozens of these types of CDs. The background tracks only versions are not interesting. My friends and I enjoy the Stage Stars recordings because their selections are more complete and the actors they use (while sometimes uneven) are terrific. And this is absolutely the best cast of actors and best choral work on any karaoke CD I've heard. The chorus sounds full and rich and the harmonies are GREAT. The tempos are perfect - just like the original cast, so very easy to sing along with. And the orchestrations are very good, if still a little too synthesized and overpowering. The leads are all wonderful! In particular, I'm a big fan of Miles Phillips. His solos as Georges are literally BETTER than either Broadway production and better than any recording I've ever heard (and I've heard em all)! It's worth buying this CD just to hear him sing Song On The Sand and Look Over There. The entire CD is worth just sitting back and listening to for pleasure. The fact that you get a second set of tracks to sing/rehearse/entertain with is almost a bonus! Great job, Stage Stars! Keep the quality coming!!

La Cage aux Folles
I am hosting a musical La Cage aux Folles night where my guests are invited to perform a song. This karaoke CD is perfect for my purpose - ten great songs followed by the same ten in music only.

Keyboard Only Tracks
I purchased this product due to the first review and was terribly disappointed by the sound of hearing the wonderful Jerry Herman score played by just one keyboard using its bells and whistles. The tempos and performances are fine, but if you are really into Karaoke and want to sing to a good accompaniment track - THIS IS NOT THE CD FOR YOU.
