Full review
This is another soundtrack to Richard O`brien`s cult classic The Rocky Horror Show. This version is from the 1990 play cast. Unfortunately the booklet does not give you all the information needed, if you want to know that who played who in this play. However, I can tell you that Mr Ade Edmonson ( Vyv from The Yong Ones fame ) plays the character Brad Majors in this production.
A very unique cast of various actors and actresses adorn this unique version of this well know cult play. Also, you do get actual vocalisation on here. Although after seeing the play many years ago & then seeing the classic movie, I cannot place where some of the vocal snippets have come from.
This style of music can be described as 1950`s camp. You will enjoy this version if you have never gone to see the play before in your life. I myself appreciate Richard O`brien`s tongue in cheek humor in the dialogue & songs.
The whole Rocky Horror experience-that is, this soundtrack, the movie and the play, has been prone to many scathing reviews from critics that just don't understand it, but it's popularity has not suffered because of this. The number of Rocky Horror fans grows bigger every year, and the play has been performed on every continent, in almost every language.
If you are familiar with the play, the movie or even Richard O`brien`s work you will appreciate this cd. Yes, this works on all aspects of the cult classic.
The track listing is this.........
1. Science Fiction Double Feature 2. Damn It, Janet 3. Over At The Frankenstein Place 4. The Time Warp-I don't think that there's anyone left that doesn't know this one! 5. Sweet Transvestite 6, The Sword Of Damocles 7. I Can Make You A Man 8. Hot Patootie 9. I Can Make You A Man: reprise 10. Toucha - Toucha - Touch Me 11. Once In A While 12. Eddie`s Teddy 13. Planet Shmanet Janet 14. Rose Tint My World ( floor show ) 15. I`m Going Home 16. Super Heroes 17. Science Fiction Double Feature : Reprise
This is one classic experience in our history that will never be forgotten or will never die. This is a unique happening for the fans and has a big and strong cult following such as the likes as such newer cult classics .........
