Free Music Notes for Young Frankenstein: The New Mel Brooks MusicalFree Music Review: Young Frankenstein is MAGNIFICENT!!! Hit: 5 Stars
I just got back today from seeing Young Frankenstein, and I had to order the CD immediately! I'd heard such terrible reviews, yet within 30 seconds I was laughing and tapping my foot to the music, and I never stopped. Not since I saw "Mamma Mia" have I enjoyed a play so much. I can't imagine what could make anyone dislike this play and music. No, it is not Shakespeare; it's not meant to be. It does what a musical is supposed to do: entertain and leave you singing the tunes. It is non-stop laughter, great dancing, and wonderful, vintage Mel Brooks. I could see it over and over again and never get tired of it or the music. A great soundtrack!
Free Music Review: Soundtrack is FANTASTIC! Hit: 5 Stars
Absolutely love this soundtrack and have been passing it around work. I'm glad I got it before seeing the show as it made the show that much more enjoyable. Haven't stopped listening to it since. I bought a used copy and it arrived in great condition and well before the day of the show. I highly recommend that you get the soundtrack then go see the show. Incredible. Received some sour reviews from idiots comparing it to The Producers, but why people do that is beyond me. NEWSFLASH! It's not the Producers, its Young Frankenstein. Deal with it and enjoy it for what it is.
Free Music Review: Mel does it again (almost)! Hit: 5 Stars
It pleases me very much to see Mel Brooks doing some of his greatest work nearing the end of a very long and checkered career. After the brilliance of the musical version of his "The Producers", he has to really to deliver the goods with the follow-up "Young Frankenstein" and he really comes close. Wonderful songs and what sounds like a great cast, this show sounds like a milliion bucks and from what I hear looks like it too!
Personal favs include "Roll in the Hay" and "He vas My Boyfriend!"
Check it out, I don't think you'll be disapointed!
Free Music Review: Mel Brooks Does it 5 Stars
It all started with "The Producers." Now, "Young Frankenstein!!!" What will Brooks think of next????
Let me start by saying, I love this soundtrack! The music is great, the actors voices are strong, the lyrics made me laugh until I was crippled on the floor in pain, and above all, it made me feel great!!!
I also happen to be a BIG fan of Sutton Foster and Roger Bart, who were, in my opinion, brilliantly cast in their roles!!!
If you are a fan of Broadway soundtracks, I highly recommend you add this to your repertoire!!!!
Free Music Review: Pleasantly Surprised Hit: 5 Stars
Being a fan of THE PRODUCERS I was excited when this show first was announced, and then dismayed by the so-so reviews it received on Broadway. Still, having heard a couple of tracks off of the cast recording and loving them, I purchased the YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN cd, and thoroughly enjoyed the entire score. Sure, the critics had it in for Mel Brooks and panned his project, but the score and the cast are all top notch. Definitely not Sondheim, but if you love music along the lines of Irving Berlin, you will not be disappointed in this recording.
