Free Music Notes for You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown (1967 Original Off-Broadway Cast)Free Music Review: Cute but... Hit: 2 StarsSome nice songs (the title song, "Snoopy" and "Happiness") make this a charming piece. However, it is a minor musical and somewhat uninteresting for adult listeners unless you've seen and loved the show. It might attract kids since it's inspired in the popular comic strip character. It's a "chamber" musical, without spectacular orchestrations and similar to THE FANTASTICKS in that respect, although the Ton Jones/Harvey Schmidt piece is far more superior. The recording is excellent, considering it's a 1967 show.
Free Music Review: Just as I remember! Hit: 5 StarsOutstanding!! My dad has this recording as an LP years ago and we used to listen to it. I was thrilled to find it on CD. The quality is great and the songs are just as fun as I remember.
Free Music Review: Happiness Is The Show As It Was Written! Hit: 5 StarsTo those who complain about the "quality" of this recording, or lack there of as the case seems to be, I must remind that this was originally released as a record album. And, as it was a TINY, Off-Broadway show, the fact that it was recorded AT ALL is, in itself, miraculous. Though the recording from the recent Broadway production (Which was NOT a revival as the show had NEVER appeared on Broadway before) keeps a good part of the score in tact, the alterations made by Andrew Lippa are in stark contrast to what was originally written and intended. The appeal of the show was its small size, and the intimate charm its size engendered. This is only to be found on this Original recording---
Free Music Review: Wow, what a cast! Hit: 5 StarsThis cd will have you humming. I was very excited to find out that Gary Burghoff was in the cast as Charlie Brown. He is an amazing Charlie. Great cd!
