This cast album was recorded in 1990, not 2019.

Glorious!

So so good!

Wish I'd seen this production (the first of any consequence I could have seen, if I'd only known then that I'd regret missing it decades later). This is a key moment in On Your Toes--Frankie is aware that Junior is attracted to Vera as a dancer--so she has to engage him as a singer. Seduce him with her voice. And her sense of humor. Get him away from the city, away from people, just the two of them. He's more than willing. He's still torn. Between Frankie and Vera. Between song and dance. Between soul and body. Between true love and true lust. He chooses Frankie in the end because he realizes she'd always choose him. It's not that he doesn't desire her--but as a dancer, there are things he can do with Vera he can't with Frankie. It's got to be depicted as a real quandary. I think a lot of productions have suffered from the fact that you need a really great dancer to play Vera--that's why there's no songs for her--what are the odds a classically trained dancer could handle the more challenging vocals in this show, if she could sing at all? But you also need a terrific soprano ingenue, with charm and comic timing to play Frankie. Frankie is typically not one of the higher-billed roles. But she ought to be. She's the heart of the show--because she's Larry Hart's female alter ego. A budding songwriter. Hart also identifies with sirens, seductresses, several times played by Vivienne Segal. His deepest romantic passions are expressed by girls like Frankie, who feel vulnerable, abandoned, lost--but don't give up hope. Who keep fighting for love. And suffering hurt as a consequence. As Hart so often did in his own life. "But if only I was a cute funny girl who could sing!" They should revive this again--and this time the three lead roles should be Junior, Frankie, Vera--because even though there are older characters who have something to say, the real dramatic tension is between these three--but you need Junior to be a great singer and dancer, preferably with a background in tap. Frankie has to be played by a terrific young singer with comedic chops. Vera has to be a first-rate ballerina. So yeah. Easy peasy. ;)

Wow! Wonderful!😊

Excellent overture......this music never went out of style and remains forever to be enjoyed. Great video!!!

I guess what I don’t understand about this is why recordings made in the last 50 or so years need this sort of treatment. Why not just remix from the multitracks? That would provide the best possible end result. It makes sense to do this for anything not recorded to multitrack tape, but not for things recorded more recently, especially in the 1980s or later.

Those taiko drums absolutely slam

My fabulous mama passed in July. Thrilled to hear these classics she so beautifully sang, played, watched and surrounded our childhood with this theatrical glory! My God what a legacy!❤

I'm confused. The website has a $10 CD and a $29 CD. What is the difference?

Thrilling!!!

Touching. For the 1000th time. Still.

This cast is elite, especially Anita Dobson’s Magenta

Followed jill gasgoine at dundee rep terrific actress

Somewhat similar to "A Hundred Million Miracles".

beutiful voice of Steven Edward Moore

absolutely gorgeous

This is delicious. Rodgers and Hart were a sensational team. .Hart's acid, witty lyrics worked brilliantly with Rodgers wonderful melodies.

I never noticed the horn reference to “Der Rosenkavalier!”

RIP Ellen Fitzhugh, the lyricist to this song

Good cover. LOVE the original cast recording. A great score.

I love this version with the piano accompaniment

And the legendary Elizabeth Welch as Mme. Armfeldt... 🙂

Jason Alexander could really sing ! So sweet and emotional....

This was the first Broadway show I ever saw - with Glynnis Johns and William Daniels. It was sublime. I had heard this version but what a pleasure to see the artists performing it. The quintet is dazzling in the opening. Thanks so much for posting.

My Dream to see MAME revised, First Choice would have Been Patti Lupone ( sadly retired) My SLEEPER choice Andrea McArdle ( yes from orphan to auntie) this version of the best tune from Mame is Phenomenal!!!!!

This part of his voice sounds like a warm hug.

Musical theatre at it's very best!!!! Thank you Jay channel for making my life better!!

Perpetual sunset is rather an unsettling thing. I wonder how long it took Stephen to write this song? GENIUS!!

The most enchanting and beautiful version of EVERYDAY A LITTLE DEATH I have ever heard! This song to me is a life metaphor, for from the Day we are born we die a little bit everyday until the day we die. RIP Stephen, Thank you for the life lessons in your music!!

Very intricate lyrics, clever I will be listening to this a lot!

Wonderful phrasings!!

I saw this in Boston in 85" with Leslie Uggams ,Andrea McArdle and Carol Channing! I will take that memory to My grave. It was Fantastic!!!!!

This song describes mid life perfectly, I love Broadway Tunes because they really describe life. I am 54 and HAVEN'T DONE HALF THE THINGS I WANT TO! Bernstein's Brilliance abounds!

Love this song, I am guessing this show was exclusive to the west end! You made My night!! I am familiar with Mr. Second and it is neat to see that he introduced this hymn to humanity!!

The Butler during the song, sarcastically: “I’m glad they care about my murder so much to make a musical number!”

His voice makes my heart swell.

Love Rodgers and Hart

Beautiful rendition of one of the heartbreaking songs of WWII.

I never thought I would have the chance to see Sian Phillips performing Desiree. Wow! This gift from Jay Records is superb. Seeing the performers in the studio reminds me of how strong the utter concentration and the preparedness must be. Total professionals each and everyone!

❤❤❤

A great Sally Bowles, a great Frl. Schneider!

Truly remarkable!

Aah the very wonderful and extremely talented Mr Martin Smith. Stunning voice and such a lovely gentleman. Left us way too soon. Hope you’re listening Martin.

Gorgeous
