5 out of 5 stars One of Weill's best American scores!.......2005-10-16

`Lost in the Stars' and `Johnny Johnson' are two Broadway shows scored by Kurt Weill in collaboration with Maxwell Anderson and Paul Green respectively for the librettos, both in English. Both are distinguished works and both were, I believe, fairly popular when they were first performed. What these two works have in common is that they are both works aimed at our social conscience.

`Johnny Johnson' is a mildly anti-war play dealing with America's entering the First World War, written in the mid 1930s, when Germany was already uncomfortable for Jews, but not yet on the brink of precipitating World War II. What is most interesting to me about the libretto is the reluctance of the principle character, Johnny, to enlist in the army, while his fiancée (contrary to many famous antiwar works of the past), is all in favor of his enlisting and threatens to break their engagement if he does not enlist. As a work of art, I believe the work is more interesting as a milepost in American antiwar sentiments than as an important artistic work for either the composer or the lyricist. To my ear, there is not a single song from this work that finds its way into the repertoire of balladeers. This is from a composer who has given us `September Song', `Speak Low', `Lost in the Stars', `Saga of Jenny', and `Lonely House', not to mention all the great songs from his German works such as `Mack the Knife' and `Pirate Jenny'. On top of this, there is my feeling that much of the instrumental music sounds very similar to earlier German works, especially `Mahagonny'.

`Lost in the Stars' is based on Alan Paton's novel, `Cry, the Beloved Country' and was written after World War II, in 1948-1949, and has much of the musical interest of what is missing from `Johnny Johnson'. Throughout the play, the instrumental music is much less similar to earlier Weill works and all songs seem stronger. At least two of these songs, `Lost in the Stars', `Trouble Man' and `Stay Well' are often performed by Lotte Lenya and other vocalists. While it may be pushing it a bit, this work seems almost as strong as Gershwin's `Porgy and Bess'.

I bought both because I am a big fan of Kurt Weill's music, and I would recommend both recordings to any and all Weill enthusiasts, especially as both have extensive notes and complete librettos. But, to the person mostly interested in Broadway in general, I would recommend only `Lost in the Stars'.

I will say that the performances of both vocalists and orchestra are excellent on both; however the vocalists on `Lost in the Stars' seem to give just a little extra, possibly because their material is just a bit more substantial.

5 out of 5 stars I love it!!.......2002-07-12

It is so easy to get some of these songs in your head...I love this soundtrack..

5 out of 5 stars Can we get someone to put this label back in stock?.......1999-12-28

With great hope in the powerful amazon.com's Jeff Bezos, the person of the year by Time magazine, we wish you can urge someone to put this title back into circulation! I have sung the piece "Lost in the Stars" and was drawn by the wonderful music and intriguing lyrics. Is there a way to locate the music score of the soundtrack?

5 out of 5 stars Powerful performance,historically significant.......1999-06-04

After 50 years the little snippet heard on this site brings back the original emotions.I would love to purchase this recording in any format. The original performance, a life-changing event for me as a young girl, is recaptured.

5 out of 5 stars "THE MOST MOVING MUSIC AND SACRIFICE OF A NATION.......1999-06-01

I saw the oringinal Musical "Lost in the Stars", and have the 33 album. Would love to have a CD to play on my "modern" equipment. When Todd Duncan was asked to do the part of the "Efunsdi", he read the part and broke an existing contract to go into rehearsal. He said "I have to do this for my people." I was enthralled at the libretto and zest of the choreography. So when I hear the music I am taken right back to the Opera stage and see and hear the glorious presentation. Please put it back into circulation, or if someone out there has a copy (cd) I would love to talk to you about it. CT

5 out of 5 stars It's better than POCO........2006-05-31

As good as POCO has been, "In My Father's House" surpasses the work Richie Furay did with POCO because the music, arrangements and vocals are much more complex while remaining loyal to the sound Richie and POCO made famous. In addition, the depth and value of the lyrics makes listening to this work, an experience that goes beyond the mere joy of POCO's earlier work. This album will change how you felt before you listen to it and if you accept what Richie is singing about, it will change your perspective on a lot things. I don't recall POCO music doing that for me.

5 out of 5 stars Songs of Praise, Devotion, and Reverence.......2003-04-18

I have read the reviews of others, and I too have followed Richie through his career. To expound on his song wrting and singing is to repeat what everyone already knows. What should be understood is that Richie has found a place of comfort, quite distant from where many perceive. Richie is not making music to bring attention to himself as he did before; Richie is making music to bring attention to God, with all the harmony, balance, and sincerity we have come to appreciate.

Richie is showing us, through his music, the warmth one experiences when they have a sincere relationship with God. He demonstrates his trust and confidence in his Lord, while sharing his personal delight and satisfaction that comes through such a relationship; As the lord provides for him, he gives glory and thanks in return.

Through his gift of music, Richie is serving his Lord by giving praise to him, and communicating to others the depth of sincere and genuine reverence one can express when their hearts are in accord with the Lord.

One should not hear the music without listening to the message; it is only for the message that this music was written..

Let all who listen to this album appreciate the warmth of his love for God, and how he wishes all of us to experience it in the same manner. Songs of praise and worship are written for this reason.

5 out of 5 stars STILL POCO MUSIC.......2000-11-07

What a great CD. Even though it has a religious theme, the music and his voice are pure Poco. So even if religious songs are not your thing, you'll still enjoy this CD, and while you'll listening check out the lyrics. They may just touch you like you've never been touched before. Thanks Richie for all the great music over the years.

5 out of 5 stars That's Our Richie!.......2000-09-04

It is hard to express in words what this CD means to me. It touches my heart in so many places. I graduated from high school in 1967. Music from 1966-1974 is an integral part of my mental and emotional make-up. Richie Furay, along with Neil Young, James Taylor, and Jackson Browne were my favorites in these turbulent and formative years. In 1977, The Lord Jesus saved me out of drug addiction, and kept my marriage to a genuine "Kind Woman" from falling apart. Praise Him, we are about to celebrate 26 years.

I have a son Sam who is 22 and with whom I am very close. Our taste in music is remarkably similar. I told him that in a magazine article, and on the web site for Richie's church, it was mentioned that so many people who Richie played with in the 60s and 70s became famous and big stars, while Richie really did not. Sam responded by saying that was "Not the case in this house".

Anyway, listening to the CD in my truck with Sam, everything came together for me. The Richie Furay voice and musical style brought me all the way back to "Nowadays Clancy Can't Even Sing". But the absolute non-comprimising Gospel lyrics in every song (you don't become a pastor of a Calvary Chapel by being a slouch) touched me where I live. All of a sudden I started yelling "That's our Richie Sam! That's our Richie!

I love the entire work, but tracks 4 & 5 "Wake Up My Soul", and "We have come to Worship You" are incredible. I don't know if artists read these reviews, but if they do, I want to say, "Brother Richie, you are something special".

4 out of 5 stars The Voice of Poco with a Message of Faith.......2000-01-21

While Richie Furay's Christian faith dominates this recording, it also demonstrates what made him the defining voice of Poco and a key element to his earlier work with Buffalo Springfield.

The years have only served to add depth and character to his vocals, and Furay still has a knack for writing catchy melodies.

"Wake Up My Soul" (my favorite track) would have fit perfectly on any Poco album with its banjo and steel guitar accompaniment--the latter provided by Poco alumnus Rusty Young.

Additional musicians on the album include New Grass Revival founder Sam Bush, fiddle and mandolin; Scott Sellen, banjo (and co-writer of all tracks with Richie, except "Send Me Lord" and "The Love I Now Posess," which he wrote himself); and Pete Wasner, piano and Hammond B-3 organ (the latter providing a "churchy" sound to the gospel-inspired "Give Thanks to the Lord," one of the album's standout tracks.)

Other stellar tracks are "Hallel," "In My Father's House," "Man of Many Sorrows," and "Send Me Lord." Overall, this is an excellent album. If you'd been anxiously waiting to hear Richie again since the Poco reunion in 1989, this album is Good News--both for Poco fans and Christian music fans alike. Recommended
