Customer Reviews
For traditional musical fans a must
It is a delight to have this long out of print recording available. True, this is not one of Rodgers and Hart's greatest scores, but as the reviews of the original in 1942 said, even lesser Rodgers and Hart is a treat. "Nobody's Heart" shows off Lorenz Hart's true gifts. "Wait Till You See Her" is a lovely Rodgers melody. "Ev'rything I've Got" and "Jupiter Forbid" are wonderful upbeat numbers. This c.d. may not please the throngs, but is a must for Rodgers and Hart devotees.
Pleasant but old
The quality of this CD is good but the singing is very old fashioned as compared to how they sing today. The voices are all good however, and natuarally you couldnt ask for anything better as it was written by Richard Rogers and Lorenz Hart.
At last!
This is (almost) wonderful. I've had the LP of this show since about 1967. It is as everyone must know Hart's last complete show. It's a wonderful score wonderfully performed. And it is almost complete as performed. Three songs were dropped before Bway (wonderful songs), but they can be found on Ben Bagley's R&H Revisited albums. 98% of Bottoms Up is left off the album. And what is left was badly rewritten by that egomaniac hack Fred Ebb. The lyric to the rest is wonderful, I've never heard the music. And a silly little bit of nothing is also left out. I've never the music to it either. Fred Ebb dipped his fingers into Ev'rything I've Got as well. He spoiled the whole album as far as I'm concerned. I hate the guy. But most of the words and music are there as written by R&H, and it's (almost) wonderful. The dropped before Bway songs are Fool Meets Fool (Lynn Redgrave - Vol. 4), Life Was Monotonous (Anthony Perkins - Vol. 3) and Nothing to Do But Relax (Blossom Dearie - Vol. 3).
