Title: Tyne Daly brilliant for authentic "Call Me Madam"
Review: I couldn't let one review spoil the chances of this superb recording. I have been to see light operatic society productions of many musicals of this era and Call Me Madam is one of my favourites with so many memorable numbers. When I heard a recording with Ethel Merman I was devastated to think this was all that was available. It may have been written for her but I found her voice overpowering and strident.How refreshing then to find a recording with ALL the songs from the show, a beautiful sound from the band and Tyne Daly giving her all. I would rate her voice as the ideal "show" voice, powerful, brash enough but not too much. The rest of the voices on the recording are super too. Thank you very much - this took me back to my show-going days and brought back some happy memories.
