Free Music Review: YOU MUST BUY THIS CD IF U ARE AN OZ FAN
Hit: 5 Stars
Our local Drama group is performing the "Wizard of Oz (RSC)" for our summer production and as Musical Director I thought I'd get as many different versions of each song as possible. Most of the RSC songs do not appear in the film version so i thought i'd add this cd to my collection. All the songs have been modernised without loseing their still traditional feel. The cd is worth buying alone for Roger Daltreys' (The Who) version of "If I Only had a Heart". All star cast inc Natalie cole (miss you like crazy and pink cadillac) and Nathan Lane ( voice of "snowbell" in Stuart Little) and a load more older names that your parents will recognise more. a must buy
Free Music Review: I LOVE THIS CD!
Hit: 5 Stars
I got this CD as a present from my mom for getting good grade's on my report card, so she ordered it for me. After waiting 5 day's, I finally got the CD. When I listened to it, I knew what to expect b/c I have The Wizard of Oz in Concert on video. I LOVED THIS CD!! Jewel's acting, and 2 renditions of "Over the Rainbow" and "The Jitterbug" will blow you away! She was pefect as Dorothy. Jackson Browne as the Scarecrow, Natalie Cole as Glinda the Good Witch, Debra Winger as the Wicked Witch, and Roger Daltrey as the Tin Man were excellent too. And Nathan Lane was HILARIOUS as the Cowardly Lion This CD is a must buy for Oz fans and Jewel fans! :)Free Music Review: A Showcase of Contemporary Talent
Hit: 5 Stars
If you haven't seen this concert benefiting the Children's Defense Fund originally broadcast on TNT and available on VHS, you will definitely want to after listening to this soundtrack. Jewel is enchanting as Dorothy, taking 'Over the Rainbow' and making it her own. Roger Daltrey as the Scarecrow brings his rock edge in a rousing rendition of 'If I Only Had a Brain'. Nathan Lane is hysterical as the Lion, paying homage to Bert Lahr with 'If I Were King of the Forest'. Natalie Cole as Glinda puts a gospel spin on 'Open'. The one weak part of the cast is Jackson Browne, but the overall production is wonderful for the eye and ear.Free Music Review: Superb performances by Jewel and Nathan Lane
Hit: 5 Stars
I've heard Nathan Lane's performance 50 times and still laugh at his superb portrayal of the lion. This guy is tops. Jewel's voice and modern slant to Somewhere Over the Rainbow is a must hear. You will not find a better source of entertainment. This soundtrack has it all. Hearing 'The Jitterbug' makes me wonder why this jazzy little tune was left out of the original motion picture.Free Music Review: JEWEL SHINES IN THIS PREFORMANCE!
