Goodbye Girl - Original London Cast

Advantages: great voices can imagine being there
Disadvantages: some songs are cut short

...This is my second fave musical. The story is so gripping full of tradgedy, romance and a bit of humor. The opening to the show is always my favourite part along with kims nightmare. On the cd the track 'Kims Nightmare' is not in full it starts from half way through and is cut short at the end also which is a little but dissapointing. The way that the sound of the helicopter starts everything off at the begining of the cd the way it does in show is great. Starting off quite then gradually getting louder sounds awsome surround sound. It makes me feel like I'm there. The voices of the cast are powerful and portrays alot of what the character is feeling at that given time which made it easier for me to imagine it when I listened to it. The voice of Lea Salonga is so beautiful. It's soft and innocent with a bit of power when needed for her... Read review

Advantages: Amazing Music
Disadvantages: some repetition

..., the musical can be seen in different genres, because it's essentially a detective story, but is also a comedy, and features lots of song and dance. The main character is Stine, who is trying to turn his detective story on to the big screen, and the show then runs in parallel with the detective story itself, so you get to share in the adventures of the other main character, Detective Stone. To sum up that paragraph- it's a show within a show! The lead female character is the seductress Alaura… This recording is the original London Cast version, and I particularly like these versions, because you get the actors and actresses who helped make the parts come alive, and I always marvel at the sheer talent of these people. This CD was released in March 1996, at the RRP at the very princely sum of £5.99. If you have a peek at www.amazon.co.uk, you... Read review
