Hit: 1 Stars
Well, this is one interesting album. If you love the film, or the music, or anything at all: STAY AWAY! Well, actually let me say, this is probably the only nice thing you'll hear me say about this album: THE JITTERBUG is amazing. I have actually been in productions of OZ that emulated this arrangement to great effect. Other than that, this album is horrible. Jewel yodels OVER THE RAINBOW. Jackson Brown...ugh...I myself have played the role of the Scarecrow...and he just degraded a role which I love so much. Roger Daltry...stick to THE WHO. Nathan Lane, actually not bad. Joel Grey, good Wizard, but liked him in the role better in WICKED. I would only suggest this album for one reason: THE JITTERBUG.Free Music Review: Don't ever buy this!!

First of all, the songs in the play are not that well written. Secondly the casting stunk! Jewel as Dorothy? Lucie Arnaz as Aunt em? Dr. John?????? What are these low talent performers doing in a play in concert? If I could meet the casting director i would simply ask WHY????? The only good thing at all about this cd is that all the proceeds go towards charities. Jewel sang "Over the Rainbow" like she had a cold and kept changing her pitch. And don't even get me started with my favorite song, "You're out of the woods", which was totally RUNIED!! Trust me this cd was horrible! Buy the 1998 broadway cast instead!!!!!!Free Music Review: Dreck

Wow, this is abysmal. Jewel is grating, with that ...show-bizzy voice usually reserved for "talented" 12 year olds. Browne,Cole could NOT be stiffer and Winger's ad libs are real sloppy. Daltrey, bless his heart tries and Lane is his usual competent, hammy self. A must to avoid. This is as bad as the Original film is good. However, the proceeds do go to a good cause. Buy it and throw it away if you have money to burn, that's my advice.
