Title: Rex Smith shines as Joe Gillis
Review: I had the pleasure and the privilege of seeing the Toronto cast perform Sunset Boulevard in Toronto at the Ford Centre for the Performing Arts. We had front row seats and immensely enjoyed the musical. I was amazing to see and hear Rex Smith in person. The orchestrations were beautiful!I was lucky to have recently purchased the CD. I was absolutely blown away! The music quality is superb and the voices are crystal clear. I also enjoy the London cast album, but Rex Smith makes this album stand out. His voice is expressive and magical. I personally prefer Patti LuPone as Norma Desmond. Diahann Carroll gives Norma Desmond a wonderfully dramatic quality. I only wish the full album had been recorded. The music is haunting, touching, and an absolute pleasure to listen to.
