Gypsy - 2008 Broadway Cast Recording

Reseña del editor The smash Broadway musical comes to life in this all new cast recording! It's the new 2008 Broadway revival of Gypsy, starring Tony and Olivier Award-winner Patti LuPone as the indomitable Momma Rose. This CD is filled with 21 songs from the production plus 6 more from the Gypsy archives. Plus, the extended 32-page booklet includes essays and notes: My Journey with Gypsy from Childhood to Broadway by Patti LuPone, the Story and Everything's Coming Up Gypsy by Playbill writer Steven Suskin, as well as photos, costumes and artwork from the show. Truly a must-have for any Gypsy or LuPone fan! Tienda Did we really need yet another recording of Gypsy, the 1959 classic by Jule Styne and Stephen Sondheim? After all we already have albums headlined by the likes of Ethel Merman, Angela Lansbury, Tyne Daly and Bernadette Peters. The short, answer is an emphatic yes. The 2008 version stars Patti LuPone, superbly supported by Laura Benanti, Boyd Gaines and a luscious 36-piece orchestra. LuPone sinks her fangs into the role of the indomitable Mama Rose, and delivers the show’s epic anthems ("Some People," "Everything’s Coming Up Roses" and "Rose’s Turn") with the right balance of manic energy and slightly cracked vulnerability. Touted in the liner notes as "the most complete recording of Gypsy ever," the album only adds more ammo to the arsenal of those who hold the musical as possibly the best of all time. There is not a single weak cut here. And because this production was directed by the book’s author himself, Arthur Laurents, access was granted to seven goodies cut from the original production and tagged at the end. The highlight clearly is Rose’s "Who Needs Him?," a torchy number that manages to pack a punch in just over a minute.--Elisabeth Vincentelli
