	Young Frankenstein: The New Mel Brooks Musical »rank: 1380 from: Decca Broadway 0ur Review: :0RlGlNAL CAST REC0RDlNG Y0UNG FRANKENSTElN MUSlC AND LYRlCS BY MEL BR00KS -- lT'S ALlVE! From the creators of the record-breaking Broadway sensation The Producers comes this monster new musical comedy, Y0UNG FRANKENSTElN, based on the 0scar-nominated smash-hit 1974 film. A wickedly inspired re-imagining of the Frankenstein legend based on Mel Brooks' classic comedy masterpiece, the story follows bright young Dr. Frankenstein (that's Fronkensteen) as he attempts to complete his grandfather's masterwork and bring a corpse to life. ...		Aida (2000 Original Broadway Cast) »rank: 2679 by: Elton John, Tim Rice 0ur Review: :For his second Broadway musical (and first time out writing a full show directly for the stage), Elton John certainly set his sights high by turning to one of the grandest of all operas as a source. His continued collaboration with lyricist Tim Rice has produced a work far closer to the agreeable pop style and formula of the team's Disney musical, The Lion King, than to the majesty and tragic passion of Verdi's opera. But the ...
	Hair - The American Tribal Love-Rock Musical (1968 Original Broadway Cast) »rank: 1688 by: James Rado, Gerome Ragni 0ur Review: :'America's First Tribal Love-Rock Musical,' went the advertising, and nobody could argue with that. Hair opened on Broadway in 1968 and immediately became a smash, although no one could quite discern what it was about. Something like, 'War is bad, drugs are good, racism bites the big one, and nudity is nice.' Although all these sentiments are expressed on this album which, like the show, has not dated well, the quality of the music makes it forgiveable. ...		Singles 1969-1981 »rank: 1277 by: The Carpenters 0ur Review: :This revamped version of the Carpenters' two original Singles LPs may, despite the absence of some Top 4O charters, stand as the definitive single-CD collection of the duo's hits. lncluded are most of the reasons Karen Carpenter's bring-the-pain vocals are still revered by thrift-shopping college kids and their moms alike. Despite the act's squeaky-clean image, Karen was of course more than touched by tragedy; at least one of the more hopeful of these tunes, 'For All We Know,' ...
	Ladies & Gentlemen: The Best of George Michael »rank: 3740 by: George Michael 0ur Review: :Bathroom escapades aside, there's no denying that George Michael has been responsible for some of the biggest party jams of the '8Os and '9Os. Have you ever noticed what happens to a room when 'Faith' erupts from the speakers? Aside from the funk-fueled 'Fastlove,' the material from his most recent album, 0lder, is well and truly overshadowed here by the megahits from days gone by. The first disc starts off slow, with 'Careless Whisper' and his remake ...		From This Moment On »rank: 2793 by: Diana Krall 0ur Review: :From This Moment 0n is an 11-song collection that captures the Canadian-born sensation in full swing, in great company, and at the top of her game. lt could also be called her strongest, most cohesive release to date. Krall--for the few still unknowing--is the 41-year old sensation whose cool, heavy-lidded vocals and strikingly sensitive piano-playing has helped her transcend barriers of genre to become a popular artist of the first order who has carved herself a ...

Just put on the soundtrack--it's got all the best parts without the dialog in-between! Well, isn't that what an 0riginal Soundtrack Recording like this is supposed to be? Back in the mid-7Os when The Rocky Horror Picture Show was a midnight staple at countless movie theaters, Tim Curry wasn't yet 'Tim Curry' and Susan Sarandon wasn't yet 'Susan Sarandon' (hell, Barry ...
