Advantages: Trevor Jones Disadvantages: Randy Edelman
...the 1936 screenplay adaptation, The Last of the Mohicans was a powerhouse movie, starring Daniel Day-Lewis as the frontier scout Hawk-eye, a white man raised amongst the Delaware Indians. With the help of his Mohican friends Chingachgook and Uncas he now helps the two daughters of a military commander to their father in the middle of warfare with the French and their recruited Indian allies the Hurons, headed by the wicked Magua. Directed by Michael ... ...empty dialogue stretches.
The Last of the Mohicans is one of those strange occurrances when a composer has been replaced by another in mid-production. Trevor Jones was originally hired for the job for which he wrote his arguably best known theme. After completing a lion's share of the work he was suddenly replaced by Randy Edelman whose more lightweight music provided a completely different feel to the more orchestral Jones part. I'm not exactly ...
Advantages: Compelling listening Disadvantages: You can't get the songs out of your head!!
...a performance of Blood Brothers without crying (which has been quite a few times!!) and the soundtrack brings back many of those feelings!
Basically what I'm trying to say is if your familiar with the songs and enjoyed the musical, this is a must have in your CD collection. ...
Advantages: Good souvenir for fans Disadvantages: Very similar to original "Quadrophenia" album
Described as one of the most "powerful British films ever made," you would expect more from this album than just a re-release of an album with a few chops and changes. However, it does serve as an appropriate souvenir of the film, and the new songs "Joker James" and "Four Faces" gives you the extra bonus material that the original "Quadrophenia" album doesn't provide. Decent tracks included the first "I Am the Sea," "Helpless Boy" and "Joker James" ...
Advantages: Brings back the memories of the show, great if you havn't Disadvantages: n/a
Barry Manilow's Copacabana was welcomed with great enthusiasm when it hit the West End as a Musical. I was lucky enough to see this musical and it has gone down with me as one of the best I have ever seen, and I have seen a few.
You may wonder how a song like Copacabana could be made into a musical, but with over 2 and a half hours of great music, Copacabana was just the tip of the Iceberg. The music in this show was full of energy, humour, some ... ...lyrics .

...a catalyst for future musicals. Cats became London's longest-running musical in 1989 when it played its 3358th performance at the New London Theatre. In 1996 it became the longest running musical ever to play in the West End or on Broadway. It is probably Lord Lloyd Webber's best known work.
Thankfully we managed to see the production London Company on it's farewell tour at the Edinburgh Playhouse Theatre about 2 years ago and we will always treasure ... ...when the tribe of Jellicle Cats reunites to celebrate who they are. The cats emerge one by one, singing of their unique abilities and special traits in a fusion of poetry and dance. But the cats are not alone - humans (the audience) are present in the cats' private world. The cats are at first reluctant and suspicious to include others in their domain. They are proud, however, and they explain to their human visitors who they are and reveal that ...
