Negative Positive
Title: For cast album collectors only
Review: DRG reissue of the 1954 Broadway show BY THE BEAUTIFUL SEA is a curiosity. Angel reissued this as part of their Broadway Classics series, but it sold very poorly and was quickly deleted. The only people who would want this cast album are collectors who want every single show that has ever been recorded. (Thats me!) That said, I have never warmed to this score at all. I have always found the show dull and the album duller. Angel's release had some good background notes.
Is the review positive or negative?
