What Happened?, Feb 4 2000
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Leading Ladies My Favourite (Audio CD)
I was looking forward to buying the My Favorite Broadway CD after seeing the PBS broadcast. I was so disappointed when I received the CD. Could they possibly leave off any more? The cut out so many of the great songs and left all of the old dead ones like "And I'm Telling You" and "Adelaide's Lament". How often do we have to hear those songs? The worst part is how many great songs were left off like Marin Mazzie's "Bewitched" and Karen Ziemba in "I Wanna Be a Rockette". Above all the most missed is Audra McDonald singing the incredible "Down With Love". Of course there were some great songs like Webber Love Trio and "Nothing" sung by Priscilla Lopez, but there were just to many things taken out. My advice is skip the CD and go for the video. You wont miss anything that way.

I want my money back!, Jan 1 2000
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Leading Ladies My Favourite (Audio CD)
It's rare that I feel so cheated by an album, but I feel that the producers of Broadway Ladies hardly did anything right. First they cut Debra Monk and Dorothy Loudon from the video (I was at Carnegie that night--they were great). Then, they screw up the album by cutting some of the best performances that night, namely Audra McDonald's unbelievable "Down with Love" and Marin Mazzie's seamless "Bewitched." If they had included the over-long "I Wanna Be a Rockette" with Karen Ziemba they could have at least left a record of a Broadway oddity. Instead you'll get to listen to Julie Andrews talk (for goddsakes) and a sappy Andrew Lloyd Webber medly that sadly underuses Audra, Mazzie, and Judy Kuhn. But why would I want another (boring) rendition of the "mature" Priscilla Lopez singing "Nothing" when I have the orignal cast version? Or put myself through listening to the VERY mature Elaine Stritch braying "The Ladies Who Lunch" when she is so much better on the original? Ditto for Jennifer Holiday (what was that last note?) and Nell Carter. I learned one important lesson with this lousy recording--read the list of selections carefully before buying.

If you buy one CD -this should be it -for everyone, Nov 16 1999

This Cd has the most amazing array of talent I have ever heard on one CD. Ingenious idea to put these leading ladies and songs together. Best songs from the greatest Broadway shows and the divas to sing them. For the Broadway novice or officianado- this is sure to be a broadwy music classic.
