This is a pretty complete recording of the music in the show--including some incidental dialogue and music. Most of it's pretty workmanlike, good but not stellar, but definitely check out Suddenly Seymour: it's the best version of that song I've ever heard.
Little Shop of Horrors is a great comedy. It's characters are comic strip characters singing awfully funny material. This Broadway reprise is very competent: definitely a winner.
Excellent and very complete rendition of the Broadway show. The revival, and the recording, lacks the raw punch of the original movie. The original was so bad you had to love it. This one is really good, but not lovable.
I saw this musical on Boadway Tour a few years ago and was waiting to buy the soundtrack for it, and here it is on emusic! This show may be wacky, but it's sure got fantastic music, some of Menken's best! The singers are great, the arrangements are nice, overall a great buy for theatre lovers! This is one of the best finds on emusic! Must have tracks: #2, #6, #7, #11, #16, #17&18, #20, #22, & from the special demos #25.
What a crazy show. I'd bag track 2 (Downtown). It's got just about aspect of musical theatre packed into 4 minutes. And that first 10 seconds is sooooooooooooo musical theatre. Gotta love it! / Poor, all my life I've always been poor / I keep asking God what I'm for / And he tell's me gee I'm not sure /. That guy sounds a lot like Rick Moranis to me!
With the recent success of Green Day's American Idiot and Fela! on the Great White Way, the line between Broadway and rock is blurrier than ever. And why shouldn't it be? The two have so much in common: The theatricality, the booming voices, the social experience, the sweat and repetition. Below you'll find some of the best examples of this burgeoning trend. Now let's see those jazz hands! more »
