Review title: Vulgarized Version of a Great Musical
Product review: "Bye Bye Birdie" is one of the most thoroughly entertaining and well-crafted of Broadway musical comedies, but you wouldn't know it from George Sidney's monstrously stupid film version, which drained all the satire and wit from the show and replaced it with idiotic gags, annoying camera tricks, and constant vulgarity. This CD reflects the problems of the movie it comes from, with unimaginative arrangements and poor sound quality to boot. Janet Leigh and Ann-Margret are as miscast on disc as they were in the film; Dick Van Dyke and Paul Lynde are heard to better effect in the original Broadway cast recording. Skip this CD and go right for Columbia's superb Broadway cast album, which is infinitely better performed and offers better sound as well.
