Title: (Hestitation...)
Product review: This is the second album I heard on Les Mis, after hearing the Broadway Cast Recording. At that time, I had not start studying Les Mis yet. (To be honest, I didn't even know Colm Wilkinson was the original Jean Valjean when I listened to the Broadway Cast. And I didn't know it actually opened in London.) I started my usual music analysis process as I listened to the album. (Please be remined that I had no idea who was in it when listening. This is to avoid any bias it may cause.) I haven't noticed that all the remarks I made at the time correspones so much to the real world's critics until I started reading literatures on Les Mis. This recording has several great performers but it also missed a great deal in terms of casting. The Complete "Complete recording" would be worth while if you look for an "almost at the show" experience. Other cast recordings have a better over performance than this recording.
