Title: Engaging, consistent, and thoroughly enjoyable performances
Product review: Let me start by noting an aspect that's too often overlooked on cast recordings: clarity. First of all, the sound is beautifully crisp, clean, but also authentic (you really feel like you're in the theatre, not a sound studio). Secondly, this is one of the VERY few recordings in which you can actually understand every word spoken and sung. These performers -- with not a weak one in the bunch -- deserve major kudos for their excellence in both enunciation skills and their ability to clearly convey emotion with every syllable.Beyond this, I'll simply re-emphasize what others here have rightly noted. This score is hugely entertaining... witty, warm, clever, and just dang fun to listen to. You WILL find yourself humming / singing / tapping long after the the CD has finished playing :)Oh, and if you have a chance to actually SEE this musical... well, you gotta go (so to speak :D)
