Those who don't know any better are apt to dismiss Deborah Cox as another R&B/dance diva determined to cling to the spotlight by whatever means necessary, including a giant genre-leap. Those who've been listening carefully, though, will check their doubts at Destination Moon's door. On this, her fourth disc, Cox sidles up to jazz--the jazz of her role model Dinah Washington--with subtlety and surefooted grace; along the way, she makes something of a masterpiece. From classics such as the title track to lesser-known but deeply felt compositions such as "I Don't Hurt Anymore," she avoids the temptation to rub a modern sheen over these songs and settles contentedly into the mood Washington carved for them instead. "This Bitter Earth" gets the "mm-hmm" treatment Dinah delivered so well, and "Misery" and "New Blowtop Blues" don't dream of belying their blueswoman roots. Best of all are the more delicate tracks: "Look to the Rainbow" captivates with a contemplative sadness, and "Blue Skies" is a natural wonder as beautiful as a dose of pure azure on a cloudless day. --Tammy La Gorce

Album Description

Platinum-selling recording artist Deborah Cox reinterprets the classic songs of Dinah Washington on her Decca debut, Destination Moon. Destination Moon thrusts the R&B/dance diva into whole new territory, showcasing her range and scope as an artist capable of tackling jazz, blues and "big-band" with ease and confidence. Deborah Cox's first exposure to Washington came very early, when she was a little girl. "I first became aware of Dinah when I was growing up, when I was about 8 or 9 years old" she says. "A lot of jazz was played about the house. I heard my mother playing a 45 of "This Bitter Earth" -- this first song I had ever heard from Dinah. It was the richness and the tonality of her voice that I gravitated to." For the arrangements and the production, Deborah turned to the highly-versatile New York-based music man Rob Mounsey, whose credits with such diverse performers include Paul Simon, Steely Dan, Aretha Franklin and Tony Bennett to name a few. The record was made live in the studio, with 40 musicians in the same room with her, playing and singing in real time under Mounsey's direction. "I'm doing this to broaden people's awareness of what I can do and also for the sheer love of her music." As a result, Deborah's homage to Dinah Washington does not lean overwhelmingly toward one particular style. It was designed from the beginning to be a compendium of several of Dinah's idioms - the big-band swing of "All Of Me" and "Destination Moon," swaggering R&B ("I Don't Hurt Anymore)," the blues that earned her the misleading nickname "Queen of the Blues" ("Misery," "New Blowtop Blues"), the lush ballads that put her on the jukeboxes of Middle America ("What A Diff'rence A Day Made," "This Bitter Earth").

5 out of 5 stars Love her voice.......2007-07-18

I guess I'm a big sucker for souful, strong, powerful voice. Me loving this album proves it again. It's all jazz standards, nothing new. In the past year, getting new albums from Diana Ross, Natalie Cole, Diana Krall, it's like one disappointment after another. So when I heard this new album, I was more than happily surprised how good it is. If you're a fan of jazz standards, I bet you'll like this one.

5 out of 5 stars Deborah Shines.......2007-07-05

From her self-titled debut, to One Wish, to The Morning After to Destination Moon, Deborah's albums are like mini-greatest hits compilations, and Deborah scores again with her interpretations of Dinah Washington's songs on Destination Moon. Deborah has the best voice in contemporary music today, and this album continuously showcases her incredible range and talent. Personal favorites will include the title track, "Misery", and "This Bitter Earth". The album's best songs are "What a Difference a Day Makes" and the closing "Look to the Rainbow". Flawless from start to finish, Deborah again creates a masterpiece.

4 out of 5 stars Jazz & Blues with Deborah !.......2007-06-25

Deborah takes the less is more approach with her first collection of standards. With a restraint that gives the arrangements plenty of room to breathe, she croons beautifully, showing us different facets of her vocal personality.
While her hits have generally called on her to be very angry or very sad, these classic songs allow her to be at turns gentle, sassy, reflective, happy and wry. The productions and arrangements are reminiscent of the golden era of era of Billie, Sarah, Dinah and others, but contain enough surprises to keep them from sounding old-fashioned.
Deborah - who shifted from pop siren to Broadway star with Aida, further expands her range to include jazz, blues and big band. Cox and her backing musicians were recorded live in the studio, playing and singing in real time. The effect pays off as Cox accurately renders each song with her own textures.
No one expects Cox to abandon the dance-floor (she just released a new dance track with Tony Moran), but her latest offering "Destination Moon" allows her to explore another musical landscape with glowing results.
Deborah takes the jazz route on "Destination Moon", a tribute to one of her all-time heroines, Dinah (The Queen) Washington. Whether you view it as a tribute album, a jazz debut or just a collection of good music, this album succeeds on all levels. From the swinging big-band to piano-voice ballads, Cox captures the essence of Washington, yet adds her own touches. Washington's milestone recordings are here. Cox gives "What a Difference a Day Makes" a mid-tempo turn with strings, getting the Queen's innocent voicing, but injecting more feeling into the lyrics.
"Baby, You've Got What It Takes" comes at us as a fast shuffle. Cox fills "This Bitter Earth" with Washington tics - the up-speak at the end of phrases, the self-satisfied "mmh-hmmm" after a line. Washington first made her name as a blues singer, and Cox lays the blues on in "Misery" and "New Blowtop Blues", that classic mean-woman lament where she sings of her run-in with a jealous ".45-packin' mama."
On "Destination Moon", focusing on Washington, the jazz singer, dishing out several of the standards most closely associated with her career, Deborah also wraps her powerful pipes around gems like "I Don't Hurt Anymore", "September in the Rain" and "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes".
Producer/arranger Rob Mounsey pulled out all the stops for these sessions, surrounding Cox with a 40-piece orchestra that laid down a gorgeous foundation for her to build on. And she did just that.
In an interview conducted to promote her new album, , Cox said she recorded this record for two reasons -- to pay tribute to an artist who had so inspired her and to show that she, like Washington, was capable of doing a lot more musically than some people might have expected.
She succeeded on both counts. It's very nice work.
Think long, rainy afternoons, dinners for two and early mornings on the patio.

5 out of 5 stars This is one of the top CD of this Year!!!.......2007-06-20

This CD is Amazing!!! Deborah Cox vocals are outstanding! I was very surprised to hear that she had a new CD release. They should be promoting this album like crazy. At first i heard that this was a throwback album so i wasn't sure how to take this but i went and purchased it anyway and i'm amazed at her depth of talent. Her Phrasing is just perfect and the live instrument just add to the excitement of the music. I would have to say that this is the top album released this year as a tribute.
Also check out Amel Larrieux new CD its the same kind of music. I love it!
Enjoy and reccomend!

5 out of 5 stars Amazing departure from the beautiful Deborah Cox.......2007-06-20

When most people think of Deborah Cox, they immediately think of the diva of club anthems (Absolutely Not, Nobody's Supposed To Be Here, Something Happened On The Way To Heaven)--the woman with a voice that makes you want to dance all night long. When I first learned of Destination Moon, I had my reservations. Then, once I'd heard some track clips that were posted on her official website, I knew I was going to love this cd. Sure enough, Deborah Cox breathes new life into the songs (some classics, some not) of the legendary Dinah Washington. Her voice is so pure and rich, the songs so soothing--I imagine (or, rather, would like to think) that her (Ms. Cox) legions of younger fans will look deeper into the discography of the great Ms. Washington, and discover for themselves an entirely different style of music which was--and still is--jazz at its best.

Kudos to the incredible Deborah Cox. This cd has found a permanent place in my ipod. (Favourite tracks include the title track, Destination Moon, and the hauntingly beautiful Smoke Gets In Your Eyes.)

    In addition to being a contest-winning fiddler and an angelic singer, Alison Krauss is also a terrific talent scout. She has assembled a personal stable of the finest songwriters in contemporary bluegrass--John Pennell, Nelson Mandrell, Ron Block, Sidney Cox and Mark Simos--and she has singlehandedly brought Louisiana's wonderful bluegrass/gospel group, the Cox Family, to national prominence. Last year Krauss produced the Cox Family's debut CD, "Everybody's Reaching Out for Someone," and this year she has joined them for a delightful joint gospel album, "I Know Who Holds Tomorrow."

    The Cox Family includes daddy Willard, son Sidney and three daughters, Suzanne, Evelyn, and Lynn. All five are solid lead and harmony vocalists, but Suzanne and Evelyn are special singers with the same kind of effortlessly graceful sopranos as Krauss. Between them, Krauss, Suzanne and Evelyn take nine of the dozen lead vocals and with the backing of the Cox Family voices and Krauss' regular musicians, the results are enchantingly lovely. Krauss has picked the hymns from a wide variety of sources--Paul Simon, Loretta Lynn, Thomas Dorsey and Dottie Rambo--but they are united by her tastefully understated acoustic arrangements. Nothing quite captures the mix of hopes and fears that make up gospel music like the duet between Krauss and Evelyn on Lynn's "Everybody Wants to Go to Heaven (But Nobody Wants To Die)." --Geoffrey Himes

    If you enjoy Gospel music this is a great CD for you. Allison Krauss blends beautifully with the Cox family. The Palm of Your Hand & Far Side Bank of Jordan ar my favorites.

    a lot to me.

    5 out of 5 stars Great! .......2006-03-17

    As usual the quality of music on this album is outstanding.....i was born and grew up in the nountains of Western NC and Eastern TN, my mother sang many of these songs as we worked out in the fields..we could hear her singing clear across the mountain.........Sorry, i can't give you an objective opinion about the music on this album, it goes too deep into my heart....

    5 out of 5 stars Not exactly what I expected, however..........2006-03-09

    This CD is not exactly bluegrass, nor is it exactly southern Gospel. It's more like old-time folk (think O Brother, Where Art Thou). And Allison only sings lead on three songs. However, the recording quality is superb. Very crisp sounding, each instrument stands out. I'm not sorry I bought it, it's just not what I expected.

    5 out of 5 stars I don't know who holds tomorrow, however..........2005-12-08

    [Disclaimer: Gospel is the music genre I am least acquainted with]

    I KNOW WHO HOLDS TOMORROW features the sweetest vocals/harmonies and the most charming performances. I bought other CDs by the Cox Family after enjoying this one for some time, but none have matched IKWHT for charm. "Far Side Bank of Jordan" is my hands-down favorite, but all of the songs here are more than well-performed. Yes, Alison Krauss is a star, but everyone else here shines just as brightly. "Loves Me Like a Rock" is a jubilant version of a classic, and the almost listless (not a fault here) "Remind Me, Dear Lord" works as a lullaby for me. "It's all good." Black Sabbath, eat your hearts out (but bless your dark little hearts, too)!

    5 out of 5 stars One of the best mid-late 90s electronica compilation albums ever..........2006-08-25

    This soundtrack is great.... it really helped me discover electronic music in general. Growing up in the midwest, no radio stations actually played techno, house, or anything electronic except for the horrible 'pop/dance' stuff on a few sad sad channels. I remember downloading Mp3s using hotline in 1997 or so, and I'd que a few to download, then listen the next day. I knew I liked electronic music, as it as used in movies pretty often, but it was just so hard to find! The internet changed this. This album represents some of the best bands from the time period (Prodigy, Underworld, Orbital, etc) doing tracks that are now CLASSICS of the genre. Aside from perfectly fitting the film's fantasy world of graphical hacking (which is weird), this album is perfect for doing almost any work involving electronics, programming, or anything with computers. Same goes for hte soundtrack to the movie "Pi". Just pop in either of these CDs, and dive into your latest project. ALMOST every track on this disc is just phenominal, 10 years later.

    Deborah Cox's self-titled debut made waves back in 1995, but perhaps not enough to prepare her for a much more crowded (and cutthroat) playing field this time around. As much as you want to applaud her for sticking to her soul on One Wish, you can't help longing for a pop crossover hit like "Sentimental" and "Who Do U Love?" The first single, "Nobody's Supposed to Be Here," is a disappointing attempt, but "September" and the title track--which ups the ante on the funk--step up to the challenge. Naughty by Nature's Kay-Gee helms the boards on the Next-flavored ballad, "It's Over Now," and R.L. of Next cameos on "We Can't Be Friends," a classic-style duet that has all the ingredients for a melodic masterpiece. --Rebecca Wallwork

    5 out of 5 stars The Most Slept-on R&B artist.......2007-06-12

    Deborah Cox is THE MOST slept-on R&B artist out there. She has one of the greatest, strongest voices but gets very minimal air play. I own all of her CDs and have no complaints about any of them. This is a great R&B album and anyone who loves R&B needs this CD.

    4 out of 5 stars Underrated Classic..........2006-08-14

    Deborah Cox's "One Wish" can easily be dubbed a sleeper but in my opinion, she shows no signs of weariness on this album. "One Wish" is an album that is perfectly punctuated with depth and has an intricate way of maintaining the listener's interest. With a unique and cohesive array of diversity, which include writing and production from herself, Naughty By Nature & Next's producer Kier Gist (a.k.a. KayGee), hit-makers Montell Jordan, Shep Crawford, Stevie J., Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins," and even Diane Warren, who lends the schmaltzy ballad, "One Day You Will," "One Wish" explores love and relationships from a deeper perspective. I love how she uses her voice to not only dazzle the audience, but also becomes one with each songs' persona. I was like, "I may be a male, but even I can relate to how expressive she is!" The Dance-fused "September," with its keen bass line, slickly synthesized guitars and eclectic rhythms tells the story of how a friendship transforms from a platonic nature to an emotional thrill ride of sensuous lovemaking, whereas "We Can't Be Friends" showcases Deborah & R.L. (of Next) passionately and vividly testifying the hardships of walking away from a special someone. Other cuts include 1998's longest-running radio single, "Nobody's Supposed To Be Here," (penned exquisitely by Montell Jordan) her second single, "It's Over Now," (produced by KayGee) the title-track, "One Wish," which features DJ Quik's solid production and stellar rap vocals, Darkchild's "Just When I Think I'm Over You," a clever reference to Rod Temperton & Michael Jackson's "Rock With You" in "Love Is On The Way" and the smooth "I Won't Give Up." The only flaw to this record is that there were one too many dance versions included. The remixes to "Things Just Ain't The Same" & "Nobody's Supposed To Be Here" could have been omitted. Regardless, "One Wish" is a fabulous record that was an absolutely underrated classic.

    2 out of 5 stars One of R&B's best kept secrets........2005-12-26

    I do agree with another reviewer that Canadian native Deborah Cox is one of R&B's most underrated singers. I was extremely dissapointed and angry at Clive Davis for underpromoting her (he even dropped her from his label J Records!) when she actually has a better voice than labelmate Whitney Houston. "One Wish" is a great contemporary R&B album featuring some Hip Hop ("One Wish" featuring Snoop Dogg), Jazz ("I Won't Give Up"), Adult Contemporary ("One Day You Will") and straight R&B ("Nobody's Supposed To Be Here"--originally written for Patti LaBelle). Her voice is phenominal. She can softly whisper like Mariah but also belt out like Celine. A lot of the songs have potential hit. Another favorite of mine is the mild Urban hit "We Can't Be Friends" featuring Next group (also an underrated R&B act) member R.L. Overall if you liked Deborah's radio hits I strongly reccomend this album. I really think it's her best. Overall grade: B+

    5 out of 5 stars One Wish.......2005-05-17

    I remember this album when I was in the 6th grade. I fell in love with the album especially the hit single (Nobody's Supposed To Be Here). Deborah experimented with incorporating these new elements into her musical style. One Wish is a perfect mix of different influences-old-school R&B,hip-hop,gospel,dance,and jazz. This album is a tremendous growth from her gold debut album. This album has been certified Platinum. Remember,this was 1998-1999.

    5 out of 5 stars WOW!!! WHAT A GREAT ALBUM AND A WONDERFUL VOICE!!!.......2004-08-05

    I am listening to this album for the first time today. Yes, a little late. I heard a few singles on the radio or in clubs - as dance remixes. I had never sat down with the entire project before. I am overwhelmed. Deborah Cox has a very powerful and beautiful voice. The arrangements are really nice -- they could be better, but for contemporary R&B, they are good. Her voice is what makes the album. She is one of the best r&b voices since the 90s. I just cant think of another singer since the 80s who is this good. Keep up the good work!!!

    Why on earth does she not get more attnention in the USA? Beyonce and Usher???!!! What is wrong with the US music industry?

    2 out of 5 stars If you have listened to Carl Cox before you may be disappointed.......2007-07-17

    This album is a divergence from the normally upbeat dance music Carl Cox usaully spins. This album has its moments, however it is mostly downbeat. I was just suprised.

      3 out of 5 stars Quirky Mozart album winds up charming me.........2006-12-24

      This is definately not your grandfather's versions of Mozart. The artists change up the instrumentation and creatively put new life in such classics of "Elvira Madigan", "Ruhe Sanft" and "Eine Kleine Nachmusik". Good enough for a listen if you want to hear someting new.

      4 out of 5 stars Original Mozart Style.......2003-04-05

      i receive this cd form amazon.com, i love the first clip, the arranged for the music of Mozart are beautyful, very inspirational, nice version of very artist like Bela Fleck, his version of this sonata are magnificent, very original, and other way to hear mozart music, maintenance the essential of the music author, buy this Cd if you love the classic music, and the jazz music same, the fussion are excellent and for sleep moment is nice hear this album

      5 out of 5 stars Mozart as you never heard it before........2002-06-14

      Just when you think there is nothing more that can be done with Mozart, along comes this album. The interpretations are so fresh and different that I felt I was relearning Mozart. I think he would be very proud.

      5 out of 5 stars A Different Mozart -- The right title for a delightful CD........1999-12-16

      If you love Mozart, try this album. Interpreters such as Bela Fleck give us a chance to appreciate the enduring beauty of the music, and all of the selections are beautiful in their own way. Each of the pieces is too short for my taste, but that does allow for many different interpreters on the CD. I'll definitely buy the follow up to this album.

      5 out of 5 stars This More-zart CD should be 10 stars out of five........1999-08-07

      I have been listening to this CD for quite a while and I still like it. It never bores me. First, the transcriptions are done ingeniusly. Second, all the works are done by different musicians and thus the the play styles are all different. This is really QUITE A DIFFERENT More-zart. For example, Ruhe Sanft is an aria in 3/4, but it is beautifully transcribed in 4/4. At first listening, I didn't know what it was, but it sounded like I heard it before, and I couldn't figure it out. Only after I checked the song list and tried second careful listening, I was able to be aware that it was indeed "Ruhe Sanft mein holdes Leben". Every piece in this CD is beatiful. I am sorry that I can give only five stars. I will definitely give it 10 starts out of five. I wish there would be "A Different Mozart II".

      Expectations ran high for this 25th anniversary revival of Company. Boyd Gaines's Robert was surrounded by a solid cast, though once again the women particularly shone: on "Barcelona" Jane Krakowski shows why she was a respected Broadway actress way before television discovered her in Ally McBeal, while Veanne Cox navigates the treacherous rapids of "Getting Married Today" with the assurance of a true New Yorker for whom singing fast is routine (does she even breathe?). Debra Monk won't make us forget Elaine Stritch on "The Ladies Who Lunch," but she's more than adequate as she roars down this ultimate showstopper. "Marry Me a Little," not in the 1970 version, is included. Of the three Company recordings that are widely available, this is the only one to include the complete lyrics. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

      2 out of 5 stars what happend?.......2007-02-22

      with the roster of big named broadway talent ,you would think this revival,which is closer to the original than any other production,would make for a good recording. it did not.everyone seems to be not in good form. even the usually amazing la chanze cranks out a lackluster marta.
      the orchastrations are nowhere as good as the original.it soft of reminds me of a community theater production of actors trying to play the characters so differently from the originals that they end up underdone. there are very few standouts.....actually only one. jane krakowski, who i believe would have been a better marta.anyways, buy this cd if you are a completist.if you need the song marry me a little buy the putting it together cast recording the voices is better and the arrangement is even better

      3 out of 5 stars Mixed Company.......2005-03-24

      It took 25 years for a Broadway revival of COMPANY to happen. When it did it was a production by the Roundabout Theatre Company announced for a limited run and though there were rumors the show would transfer to another Broadway theatre, this was not to be. There are changes to the text and orchestration here. The orchestra is reduced to fourteen players, less than half the size of the original. Recording techniques have changed since 1970 and the singers now all use isolation booths. The result on the record is not the sound of all voices blending into an ensemble but of 11 individual voices. This is most apparent in You Could Drive a Person Crazy. Debra Monk sounds too young and lacks world-weary quality needed for Joanne and screams too much in The Ladies Who Lunch, but La Chanze makes a wonderful Marta, belting out Another Hundred People in a style all her own.

      Sondheim mad a few lyric changes. "Much the simplest of crimes" becomes "much the cleanest of crimes." And the line "I could understand a person if a person was a fag" was changed to "if he happened to be gay."

      Boyd Gaines had been sidelined during the run of the revival with throat problems. He shows no sign of strain in any f his tracks, and this version restored Marry Me a Little for him to sing at the end of Act One. If the others don't quite match the original cast, they at least offer an interesting alternate.

      3 out of 5 stars It's the little things.......2004-09-27

      I'd like to get proponents of the three versions of "Company" I'm aware of - the OBC, 1996 London, and this 1996 Broadway Revival Cast - and put them in a room together to "discuss" which one is the best. And better, put a large table in the center of the room, piled high with fruits and doughnuts and the sort, and see how long it takes for the food to start flying.

      I actually have all three of those recordings. An ex gave me a cassette of the 1996 Revival Cast, then she bought me the 1996 London cast CD, and after the OBC was remastered on CD, I went and bought that for myself (after we broke up). Each recording has its high points, and in a geeky song-to-song comparison, each recording has songs which are done better than on the other two. But this 1996 Revival Cast has the least. It doesn't help that the actor who plays Bobby is kind of bland, and his "Being Alive" was a disappointment - a song that when I listen through line by line, listening to what it says, usually gets me all verklempt. "Getting Married Today" is the most technically proficient performance of that song, and still amazing at that, but the singer sacrifices the desperation and frantic emotion needed to really deliver that song.

      On the plus side, I don't think there should ever be a comparison to Elaine Stritch's "Ladies Who Lunch", I think our panel can agree to put down the tomatoes and kruellers and give that song to the Original Broadway Cast. Given that, the 1996 Revival version is quite well executed and hits all the emotions and nuances required of that most nuanced of songs. This version is the only one that makes me laugh *every* time she hits that last 'I'll drink to that' - you know the one. It's a little over the top, but it's so gold. I liked the version of "You Could Drive a Person Crazy" best on this recording because it has the cleanest execution and the women really hit the Andrews Sisters-esque close harmony, the precision of which makes the song work just a tiny bit better than the other versions. It's a competent recording, and an update on the OBC (there are more parallels between the two Broadway recordings than with the London), and it's obviously a better sound recording.

      My favorite of the three? I know I'm gonna get pelted with jelly doughnuts, but I like the London best *throws up arms defensively*. It's the little things in that recording, like the 4 bars of swing, breaking the rhythm in one of the chase sections of "What Would We Do Without You?", that I'm always listening for now, and isn't on either of the Broadway recordings. There are a whole bunch of just little things I listen for that I like when I put on the CD - a syncopation, an inflection, a different bit of orchestration - oh, the orchestration on the Revival cast is excellent, a lot of little subtle additions. Finally, I liked Adrian Lester's Bobby on the London recording the best because he just sounds very natural, whereas the other Bobby's sound more like formal singers. It's the little things.

      4 out of 5 stars A True Original After All These Years.......2004-08-02

      Nearly 35 years after its original Broadway premiere, Stephen Sondheim's "Company" remains one of the most unique and daring works of musical theatre ever. The true definition of a concept musical, the show enschews a traditional, linear plot in favor of vignettes that offer insight into the lives and psyches of married Manhatannites. The show is centered around Bobby, who is the only one of his friends who isn't married and trying to figure out why.

      Of course, such a daring concept wouldn't matter if the show wasn't any good, but Sondheim has written a stellar score for this one. Although it initially isn't as melodic and memorable as some of Sondheim's more famous works ("Sweeney Todd," "Into the Woods"), repeat listenings reveal a depth and subtlety that is unfortunately uncommon in most theatre scores. Unassuming songs like "Sorry-Grateful" and "Someone is Waiting" may not instantly grab the listener, but if you surrender yourself to them you will find deeply moving and insightful songs about love and longing.

      That's not the say that the show doesn't have its fair share of showstoppers. The title track grabbed me from the moment to first notes were sung, with its endless rounds and lines of counterpoint proving what a master of songcraft Sondheim truly is. And of course, the show ends with "Being Alive," one of Sondheim's most haunting and beautiful melodies ever.

      Endless debate has been waged over the merits of this cast and the original, and the simple answer is that the original cast is slightly better. This is only natural, since Sondheim has been quoted as saying he writes for specific actors and believes that if you truly write a great part for a particular person, then anyone can succeed at it. Which this revival proves in spades, with the entire cast doing an excellent job with the difficult music.

      However, for some odd reason all the best songs in this show seem to go to women. Veanne Cox does a fabulous job on "Getting Married Today," with such crisp diction and such a frenzied edge to her voice you have to wonder if she ever breathes. LaChanze belts out "Another Hundred People" with confidence, and Debra Monk expertly handles the showstopping "Ladies Who Lunch." She won't replace Elaine Stritch (no one will), but on her own merits Ms. Monk is more than capable of handling the role.

      Sondheim buffs need this CD because it includes "Marry Me a Little," and song added after the show's 1970 New York premiere, as well as the full lyrics. It also sports a crack cast performing one of Sondheim's better scores. Newbees might do better to check out the original cast album first, but this revival is certainly worth a listen.

      4 out of 5 stars A different side of Sondheim.......2004-07-14

      If you want to see a new side to sondheim then I truly suggest this CD. It is different from his touching and more profound musicals. Bobby is the only person who is single amongst a group of friends, and each of these friends are giving him advice and trying to get him married. The score includes great musical numbers from a variety of well-knowns including Jane Krakowski, Robert Westenberg, and LaChanze. Highlights on this CD as opposed to the one from the 70's version are the addition of Bobby's number Marry Me A Little. Also Getting Married Today is a hilarious number done with in a deadpan style reminiscent of Madeleine Kahn. I promise that you will not be dissappointed. The only thing that could make this CD better would be the presence of Elaine Stritch, just because she is amazing.

      Footloose is only one of a batch of dance-movies-turned-musicals from the late-'90s, but it's probably the best. Unlike Fame, it gives an audience the movie songs it expects to hear, and unlike Saturday Night Fever, it complements those songs with newly written, honest-to-goodness book songs that support the plot (written by Dean Pitchford and Tom Snow, who wrote songs for the original film). Like the 1984 Kevin Bacon film that inspired it, Footloose follows the story of Ren (Jeremy Kushnier), who moves with his mother (Catherine Cox) to a small town where dancing is prohibited by law. Teens will be teens, of course, so Ren ends up at odds with the town and especially the local minister, Reverend Moore (Stephen Lee Anderson). Along the way, the characters sing familiar songs from the movie ("The Girl Gets Around," "Holding Out for a Hero," "Let's Hear It for the Boy," "Almost Paradise," and of course the title tune), but the new songs are enjoyable as well. Footloose: The Musical doesn't exactly break new ground, but it's a good listen, particularly if you like the movie. The booklet includes a detailed synopsis, photos, and full lyrics. --David Horiuchi

      4 out of 5 stars Wish this would come back around!.......2006-08-25

      Ever since working on this show 2 years ago, I've tried to get a copy of this disk. I waited patiently for someone to start selling it again, to no avail. I wish they'd either start marketing this Original Broadway disk again, or else stage a revival! It is a fun show.
      Finally, I had to go and copy this from a friend because I couldn't buy it anywhere... its definitely worth listening to!

      I didn't give it 5 stars because sometimes it seems a little toooo over the top Broadway and because some of the slower songs don't quite hold my attention. However, the CD mostly makes up for this with high energy, high fun tunes that make you want to dance.

      5 out of 5 stars Great CD.......2006-03-14

      This is my absolute favorite CD ever!!!!!! My school just did a production 2 weeks ago and i was in it, it was so cool listening to the music over and over. I have every song stuck in my head. My favorite songs are Footloose/on any Sunday, Holding out for a hero The girl gets around, I'm Free, Lets hear it for the boy, Almost Paradise, and MAMA SAYS

      5 out of 5 stars A CD For The Ages: FOOTLOOSE.......2005-11-23

      I am middle school student in a small town outside of Boston, and this past November, Coop Theatre did a production of Footloose. After barely snatching the main role as Ariel Moore, I was flustered with the lines and the tough music. The CD was amazing. The songs were hits that I still listen to. The songs I love the most were definitely:
      Mama Says, Holding Out For A Hero, and Dancing is Not a Crime
      If there is any CD that I recommend buying, this is it! I continued to do the show, and it turned out to be an amazing success. Enjoy!

      5 out of 5 stars Dancing is not a crime!.......2005-07-09

      This recording is fabulous! They have revamped the 80's music to give it a new, fresh sound while still keeping the original mood intact.

      More people need to be exposed to this show. Most of the people who have written reviews here have been in a production of the show. I am now playing Wendy Jo in it.

      Personally, I think the best songs on this CD are:

      Footloose/On Any Sunday
      The Girl Gets Around
      I Can't Stand Still
      Somebody's Eyes
      Learning To Be Silent
      I'm Free
      I Confess
      Holding Out For A Hero
      Footloose: Finale

      Let's Hear It For The Boy just doesn't do it for me. Neither does Almost Paradise. But the rest of the songs on this recording are not to be missed!

      It's a fabulous, energetic, beautiful, crazy, peppy piece of fun!

      5 out of 5 stars Best Broadway CD Ever!!!!.......2005-05-09

      I have the movie and broadway soundtrack of footloose, and by far the broadway one is ten times as good. The vocals in the broadway play are much better than that Kenny Loggins crap. The footloose favorites are 'Let's hear it for the boy", "Holding out for a hero", and the theme song. They're wonderful. Also, three unknowns, that weren't featured on the movie soundtrack, "The girl gets around", "I can't stand still", and track #14(I forget the name of it),a cute little rap, rock also.
      I don't mean to sound like an Amazon clerk...but.... BUY! BUY! BUY!!

      Summary; Don't waste your money on the movie soundtrack.
