Free Music Notes for American Idiot: The Original Broadway Cast Recording Featuring Green Day
Free Music Review: Can I give it six stars?
Hit: 5 Stars
The original American Idiot was as galvanizing a piece of mainstream agitprop as I've ever heard - tuneful and moving at the same time. It ranks right near the top of my '10 albums I'd insist on if I was on a desert island' list. The Dookie boys had matured, looked around and created a near-perfect encapsulation of the unease and malaise a lot of us felt back in 2004 (and still feel).
When I heard a Broadway production was in the works, it made sense, since the song sequence and narrative virtually screamed for a dramatic interpretation. But at the same time I was apprehensive - would the qualities that made it so memorable be leached out in an attempt to make it palatable to the masses? I need not have worried - this was created by folks with respect for the source material (as well as the band themselves) and the craft and diligence shows.
Compiled largely from American Idiot (and a generous helping of songs from 21st Century Breakdown) the selections effortlessly convert from the original trio format to ensemble pieces. I'm partial to the blistering roar of songs like American Idiot, Letterbomb (my favorite tune off the source CD) and Too Much Too Soon, but the less raucous material (in particular a gorgeous version of 21 Guns) also packs a wallop. The arrangements, harmonies and vocal talent are all wonderful. Not a clunker in the bunch.
An album I still play on a daily basis gets an amazing reworking and gives me another reason to swoon. Who says love isn't better the second time around?
