Title: It's OK for an album of Ethel Merman singing Berlin songs.
Review: This is a fine album if you want to hear Ethel Merman singing Irving Berlin tunes. However, if you want to hear a performance of "Annie Get Your Gun" with some real acting, this isn't it. Ethel Merman's voice MAY be much better but my 17 year old daughter played the part with a lot more feeling in her school play. For instance, "Moonlight Lullaby' HELLO... it's supposed to be a lullaby not an aria. Another example, "Doing What Comes Naturally" is supposed to be when Annie Oakley was an uneducated hillbilly and the accent in this version just isn't there. Some of this may be a proud papa speaking but I just can't buy Ethel Merman as anything other than Ethel Merman.
