Free Music Notes for Jersey Boys (2005 Original Broadway Cast Recording)
Free Music Review: Awesome!
Hit: 5 Stars
Just saw the musical "The Jersey Boys" in Manhattan and came back with the CD. Matter of fact, I played it and sang it on the way home on the interstate. Loud, too! As you can see from the Amazon list of songs, it has many of the very popular Franki Valli songs on it.
The musical is the story of Franki Valli and the 4 Seasons and this CD is most of the songs from that musical. It sounds very close to the 4 Season's original recordings in arrangement and vocal. The CD is great, well sung, and great quality. If you get a chance to see the musical, that's outstanding too. I bounced in my seat ALL THROUGH the musical. (I do so love good music!)
When they started playing "Sherry," "Big Girls Don't Cry," and "Walk Like A Man," Oh, God! Wow! Of course, you remember "December, 1963 (Oh What A Night)" (In the musical it was when one of the group got "lucky"). Songs like "My Eyes Adored You," "Dawn," and "Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You" and "Working My Way Back To You"--AWESOME! "Fallen Angel" in the musical, was sung when Valli's 22 year old daughter died. So sad.
The guy who does Valli has such a unique voice and the other 3 and him sound, like I said, so much like the real 4 Seasons. This CD is a treat to the ears. It's like an ear massage! :-)
Note: June 2007--I understand this musical will start appearing around. If so and if you loved Franki Valli and the 4 Seasons, catch it when you can. It was great!
Update: Sept 2007--Am in San Diego. Just saw an article in a magazine that the show is coming here. Catch it if you can. It's great!
Jersey Boys (2005 Original Broadway Cast Recording) Poster
Recounting the rich history and reliving the timeless sounds of the phenomenal Frankie Vallie & The 4 Seasons, the new Broadway musical Jersey Boys answers the musical-and philosophical question, "How did four would-be wise guys from Newark, NJ, become one of the greatest chart-topping successes in pop music history?" Jersey Boys celebrates legendary Rock and Roll Hall of Famers Frankie Valli, Bob Gaudio, Tommy DeVito, and Nick Massi who, as the 4 seasons, wrote their own songs, invented their own identity, and sold 175 million records worldwide-all before they were 30.Although it squarely falls in the "jukebox musical" category, Jersey Boys doesnıt try to integrate its songs in an artificial plotline. The show tells the story of the early-1960s group the Four Seasons, and the musical numbers tend to be introduced in context, as when songwriter Bob Gaudio comes up with a tune, or the quartet performs a show. This allows Jersey Boys to flow better than some of ill-fated peers, and the actors can shine without having to bend backward to accommodate an inane book. The show's most (only) daring move is to start with a hip-hop-tinged French-language version of "December 1963 (Oh, What a Night)," an actual hit in France in 2000. After that it's all VH1-biopic territory, but it's done with so much flair, taste and energy that the ride's a fun one. The Four Seasons had enough hits ("Sherry," "Big Girls Don't Cry," "Rag Doll," etc.) to easily fill an evening at the theater, so it's left to the cast to do right by them. And it does, particularly John Lloyd Young as the bandıs star lead, Frankie Valli. Young hits all the falsetto notes and brings real freshness to the part. His "Canıt Take My Eyes Off You," a second-act peak, is signed, sealed and delivered with a star's acumen. --Elisabeth Vincentelli
