Title: Rupert Holmes' Scored with DROOD
Review: In January of 1987, I saw Edwin Drood on Broadway and I was awestruck. The energy of the score and incredible creativity of the ending caused me to return the next day to see it again. The ending was chosen by the audience, which I thought was super cool. I recently saw Les Miserables and Phantom on Broadway. While those productions are elaborate and thier songs are flawless in light of their portrayals of the storyline they follow, I still feel the music of DROOD is incredibly uplifting and more fun. The revolving and precision timing of the staging of Les Miz and the pyrotechnics fo Phantom are the highlights of those productions. The highlight of Drood is its music and isn't that why they call them musicals anyway? Get this recording if you want that classic Broadway sound.
