A fascinating footnote in drug history.......2005-06-30

And even if you don't embrace the drug subculture, you'll find much to interest you in this compilation. You know how all the right wing extremists keep complaining about how things aren't innocent anymore? How all artists sing about is sex and drugs? Well, they're wrong. Quite frankly, music was never innocent. Even mainstream artists are represented here. It's often quite jaw-dropping, and bizarrly pro-drug. The innocent old days? I don't beleive so. An interesting representation of what people thought of drugs in those old days. If you enjoy this, also check out Lucille Bogan. She was a blues artist who in the 20s and 30s sang about sex graphically, and used language and sex talk that'd make Easy E and 2 Live Crew blush. A fascinating, if unessential, album.

Customer Reviews:

Best Soundtrack in My collection.......2005-08-24

I bought this after watching the movie on Showtime, and while I was disappointed by the lack of the Brownie song, It made up with so many others.... The Monkey Song, Lullabye, And the Listen to Jesus, Jimmy Reprise!

The Vocals by Rober Torti and Christian Campbell are top notch, love them....and I think Robert Torti sounded much better as Jack.

Beyond that, I recomend it to anyone who loved the movie....even if the vocal inflections change, and there are alternate lyrics....fun times, two thumbs up

Not the Showtime music.......2005-08-09

I love, love, love the Reefer Madness movie on Showtime. I guess I didn't look very closely at the songs on this, the original musical CD. I thought they would have the same songs, but, nope. "Listen to Jesus Jimmy" is still the best song, but others like "Loved by Mary Lane" are missing.
This is a fun CD but unless you saw and liked the original musical, it may not be what you are looking for.

Thrilling!.......2005-05-24

This musical is so catchy, kitschy, and addictive. I received this CD in the mail this morning and have been listening to it all day. I can't get enough.

My favorite songs:

Reefer Madness!
Romeo and Juliet
The Orgy
Listen to Jesus, Jimmy
Jimmy on the Lam
Lullabye (this one is absolutely hilarious)
Little Mary Sunshine
The Stuff (reprise)

I'm going to get all my friends and family hooked on this whether they like it or not. ;)

I'm Addicted!.......2002-05-09

I am powerless over this hysterically funny, tuneful CD! I am just sorry I missed both the original LA and subsequent NY productions - but at least there is this CD to compensate! The only things I'd like to add to everybody else's rave reviews are to note that the singing is actually first-rate - being able to sing in character voice is extremely difficult, and the entire cast pull it off with great professionalism. And - the booklet accompanying the CD has some terrific shots of the show that gives an additional idea of just how wacked out the production must have been. The cut number is which everyone takes a whack at Jimmy's bare bottom also must be a milestone in musical comedy weirdness! It's just a shame that this didn't become the huge hit it surely deserved to be...

Priceless!!!!!.......2002-02-09

This is "musical theater gone wrong" at it's best!!!! I saw the show in NY on my birthday, and I can't recall ever having so much fun at the theater (and I'm an actor myself!). I consistently laugh out loud listening to the cd. I wish there was a NY cast recording--I was told one was in the works. The music is actually good, and the lyrics kill every time!!!! If you enjoy shows like Little Shop of Horrors, this will be the perfect addition to your collection! BUY IT!!!!!!!!!!
