Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat (1992 Canadian Cast)
»rank: 1908
0ur Review: :Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice's Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat completed the transition from cantata for schoolkids to big-budget glitzfest with Steven Pimlott's 1991 London revival. Here's the 1992 Canadian version of that show, and even if it's not an ideal recording--Janet Metz as the narrator is no match for Laurie Beechman in the original Broadway cast and there's a little too much synthesizer in the orchestrations--this CD is valuable for the performance of former ...

Neil Diamond - The Greatest Hits (1966-1992)
»rank: 1318
0ur Review: :Though now known mainly for his middle-of-the-road balladry, Neil Diamond started his career in the '6Os as a Tin Pan Alley pro who turned out a string of ballsy, folk-rock-styled classic Top 4O singles that may come as a surprise to anyone who's grown up with the image of Diamond as a sensitive crooner and Vegas showman. This 2 CD set contains all of his hits, but it isn't quite the definitive package that its title suggests. ...

Camelot (Original Broadway Cast)
»rank: 2122
0ur Review: :For one brief, shining moment, there was a place known as Camelot--and this 1961 recording is the only document available of JFK's favorite musical, the one that's been used to describe his presidential administration ever since. Truthfully, Lerner and Loewe's musical score for this retelling of the King Arthur story doesn't measure up to My Fair Lady, which was still playing when Camelot opened on December 3, 196O. That being said, the three principals here were stronger ...

Charlie Brown's Holiday Hits
»rank: 1845
0ur Review: :Recognizing that the holiday season really begins at Halloween (and, in some quarters, doesn't end until the Super Bowl), Vince Guaraldi and his record company have wisely assembled the hummable themes from various Charlie Brown TV specials. What we have here is the album's ability to communicate the playful irony and loopy, lovable characters that people Charles Schultz's 'Peanuts' comic strip every week. Though only one actual Christmas tune is included--'Christmas Time ls Here,' in both the ...

Based on Puccini's classic opera 'La Boheme,' Jonathan Larson's revolutionary rock opera tells the story of a group of bohemians struggling for success and acceptance while enduring the obstacles of poverty, illness and the AlDS epidemic in New York's gritty East ...
