Title: Awful
Review: Phil Collins has written a banal, stupid, unmemorable, often uneven score for this Disney dreck musical, Tarzan. His lyrics do not rhyme at all. They often try, but do not work. His music is bland and highly unmemorable. The actor playing Tarzan, Josh Strickland sounds like Cher and Jenn Gambatesse as Jane needs to work on her English accent. The orchestrations sound incredibly synthesized. Nothing acoustical, nothing brassy, nothing remotely good. (Poor work by a usually wonderful Doug Besterman).The show itself is far worse than this CD. The costumes and scenic production are incredibly tacky and lame looking. The book is highly cliched and structured quite poorly. This is a cast album filled with awful music from an awful show. If you wish to hear unmemorable music, bad performers and dreadful lyrics, buy this album. If not, please do not. You won't regret it.
