Re-listening to OZ from Oz.......2004-01-28

I've been relistening to the original original cast recording of this show. I'm really starting to enjoy it and find it quite entertaining. It has its own wonderful quality and well worth listening to over and over again.
It definitely would NOT have worked on Broadway with these arrangements because it retains too much the quality of a lounge act; not nearly 'big' enough for Broadway. BUT the performances are really terrific and the period arrangements are true to form.
I wish PRETTY KEEN TEEN, SURE THING BABY and TAUGHT BY EXPERTS had been kept in the Broadway production
Enjoy!

OH BOY, WHAT A JOY, THE SHOWS A HIT!!.......2002-12-11

The Boy From Oz had its world opening at HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE Sydney in 1998. As a theatre lover and seen over 70 shows, this musical stands out as #1 around Australia and soon to hit and rule the world.
The music is outstanding.
The cast is the best.
The show PHENOMINAL!!!!

The songs lift your spirits beyond belief. They just make you feel you are up there on that stage with the cast. You would understand why the songs are on this cd and the order they are in as they happen in the show if you saw it first, but trust me you can listen to the cd before you see the show.
The cast featured on this cd are Australias best!
TODD MCKENNEY (Singin'In the Rain, Crazy for You, 42nd Street, Strictly Ballroom{movie})just to name a few, Plays Peter Allen.
CHRISSIE AMPHLETT (The lead singer in the band "The Divinyls", plus several shows) plays JUDY GARLAND.
JILL PERRYMAN (Austarlias lady of the stage and screen {small and big} Hello Dolly!, Funny Girl, Annie, to name a few) plays Peter Allens Mother MARION WOOLNOUGH.
ANGELA TOOHEY (Cabaret, Jesus Christ Superstar) plays LIZA MINNELLI. A very scary fantastic roll. You would think you were watching Liza on stage she has the role down so well.
Robyn Arthur (Beauty and the Beast, Les Miserables, Cats, Cosi) plays several roles.
Murray Bartlett (4th season of Sex and the City, Australian tv & theatre shows)plays Greg Connell. Peter Allen's partner.

The music that features in this show is outstanding and moving. There are moving/love songs: All i wanted was the dream, Sure thing baby, Quiet please, there is a lady on stage, I'd rather leave while i'm in love, Best that you can do, Love dont need a reason, I honestly love you, Dont cry out loud, Tenterfield Saddler
Fun and enjoyable songs:Continental American, When i get my name in lights, Pretty Keen teen, Only an older woman, Dont wish too hard, Sure thing baby, Taught by experts, Not the boy next door,everything old is new again, she loves to hear the music, I still call australia home, I GO TO RIO!!

The stage, the music, the fun and the life of Australias and the worlds most out there and amazing enterainer comes to life in this musical and cd. When it comes to a stage near you, you have to buy tickets. And if your anything like the millions of Aussies that have seen it you will see it again and again. With the likes of the Phantoms, Les Mis etc.. around and gracing our stages after 20 or so years, i know THE BOY FROM OZ will still be around gracing our stages and our childrens stages for many many many years.

OH BOY! WHAT A JOY! THE BOYS A HIT!

THIS MUSICAL EXPERIENCE WILL TAKE YOU FROM NEW YORK TO RIO AND OLD LONDON TOWN! BUT STILL CALL AUSTRALIA HOME!
OR YOU MIGHT WANT TO GO TO RIO!

Fantastic!.......1999-12-15

Well, I saw this play while in Syndey in '98, and loved it then, and the more i listen to the soundtrack, the more i love it. It is amazing, and it totally recaps the feel of the play. I honestly love you, and Tenterfeild Saddler are two of the most amazing songs ever writen, and they are even more wonderful on this fabulous album! All praise Peter Allen

Almost Great.......1999-06-09

The problem with this CD is that it contains only a fraction of the music in the show itself. Admittedly, it contains the major numbers, but a lot of good stuff from the original show is missing. Since it is the only CD available, I recommend it, but if and when this show gets to the London or New York stage, a CD containing more of the entire work will doubtless become available. The liner notes are sparse. The listener who has not seen the show will not have a clue as to what is going on with the story line. This is a real shame, because understanding the story line brings a special poignancy to many of the songs. If you can wait a year or two for another edition to appear, do so. Otherwise buy it now. If it were complete and had better liner notes, I'd give this one five stars plus. The fellow playing Peter Allen and the gal playing Lisa Minelli are dynamite talents.

BRILLIANT - A GREAT CD.......1999-04-17

I must say I have never seen the show here in Australia but after listening to the recording I will have to go see it. The quality of sound is perfect and the track changes are also perfect. Some of the songs on the CD are so well sung it almost brings a tear to your eye for example TENDERFIELD SADDLER, I HONESTLY LOVE YOU and DON'T CRY OUT LOUD The songs arent sung by one person, lines of lyrics are given to characters. Well worth buying to add to your collection

better than most is no excuse.......2004-02-03

Yea, i know that LMNO is better than most mc's out there, but this cd is almost a complete waste of my time. There is a god or jesus reference in just about every song. LMNO's lack of diverse content just gets way too boring. About 3 songs into the album, you feel like you are at sunday school. I mean that's cool if that's all you really wanna hear, but i like music about a variety of topics, and i think others like me were just as bored with this album. LMNO's lyrics just seemed way too complacent and at times his delivery even makes him sound like he's not into it. The production is pretty good and was one of the only things that got me through the entire album, but lyrically LMNO comes off boring.

Buy this disc.......2003-12-12

Buy this disc, it's amazing. Fulla depth, substance and mad skills.

An Athiest's Opinion.......2003-11-16

Sorry,I had to warn everybody. Yes this album is 95% about God, but that's not why I'm only giving it 3 stars. The fact is, LMNO (like the rest of his crew except 2Mex)needs the other Vision-ares to balance him out. The whole is more than the sum of the parts. Compared to other crap out there though, its probably a 4.

The CD is totally solid, with the beats by Key Kool fittin LMNO's flow the best. He's weak on a few chorus's, but that's forgiven when considering that he doen't waste rhymes spitting nonesense. Also, unlesss I'm mistaken, I don't think there is a single curse word on this disc (that is definitely comendable).

As far as the religion thing goes, I respect his beliefs even if they aren't my own. The fact is he's not a sheep as proven by the line "God owes an apology to Sodom and Gomorah/if He doesn't destroy America". Definitely a freethinker.

Whoa!.......2002-12-13

I had no idea who lmno was till' i heard him make an appearance on playdough's(of ill harmonics)solo cd on a song called,"Shadow Dance." I wasn't too impressed. Then I hear some of the tracks on LMNO's own cd and I'm like,"Dang... That's tight." I heard "Radiant" and "Always." Man... I wanna' hear him do a collaboration with Manchild of Mars Ill. This was just too cool, a lot better than I woulda' expected. The beats are just... tight.

Leave My Name Out, cuz it ain't about me........2001-10-02

A few things to be said... LMNO, of the Blak Forest, and Visionaries crew, is not for the weak of mind, and if you've kept up with his work, you already heard the best. I personally believe that the new tracks that were added to make this album are nothing to special, but if you havent already heard his first singles, I will suggest this cd. just make sure your ready for it. peace.
