Greatest Hits: Broadway Reviews:
Excellent Album 
2009-08-27 - This was a fine and entertaining compilation of hit tunes from major Broadway shows over the years.
Simply OK 
2008-09-08 - I haven't enjoyed this one very much. As a matter of fact, I passed it on. Seemed lackluster somehow.
The original recordings
2008-06-28 - A nice sampler. I bought it primarily for "Together, Forever" from Gypsy, though its nice to have the Broadway version of "Send in the Clowns (I believe by Glynis Johns). But it is just a sampler, and fans of Broadway music are probably better served buying the full original cast recordings.
Great to Hear All those great Voices from the Past
2007-07-04 - I just wanted to confirm what the first reviewer had to say about this CD. To hear Ethyl Merman, Mary Martin, Andrea McCardle etc. singing their trademark songs brought a lot of memories from the mid-centry musical theater back again. The last song by Glynis Johns is especially poignant.
You certainly can't beat the price!
A Good One!
2006-11-09 - This is a very good CD, mostly because it's the original artists. I've had some that were re-recorded by no name artists that were ghastly. This one is a really good one--including the sound quality. If I had one wish, I would wish it were longer!
