Customer Reviews:

Fabulous for any Broadway-lover.......2007-01-30

Packs into 5 CD's a sampling of Broadway tunes from the 20's thru (almost) today, mostly from original cast recordings. Includes not just well-known hits, but also some lesser-known gems. Sound quality is first rate, booklet is informative too. Have given this as a gift to several friends with rave reviews.

Top Shelf.......2007-01-04

This is THE definitive collection of Broadway hits. I have other collections, and none of them measure up. A great deal of care was obviously taken in compiling and presenting this box set. It covers a lot of ground, starting with some long-forgotten but still very enjoyable hits from the days of yore, and finishing with present-day favorites. To the best of my knowledge, the recordings are by those who made them famous. You won't be disappointed.

TERRIFIC CD'S.......2006-03-23

THESE BROADWAY MUSICALS CD'S ARE A BROADWAY LOVERS DREAM. WITH EACH SONG, MEMORIES COME FLOODING BACK. BOTH THE FAMILIAR AND THE FORGOTTEN SONGS ARE A TRUE LISTENING PLEASURE. IF YOU LIKE BROADWAY, YOU'LL LOVE THIS SET.

Great Collection of Broadways greatest Songs .......2005-06-14

This Collection was perfectly made it has almost all the most famous Broadway songs on this 5 cd set. The Music is great and has Broadways greatest treasures like "Memory""People""With One Look""Give my regards Too Broadway" just to name a few of this numerous cd set with over 100 songs. This is a great buy if you like musicals or The music of Broadway

Great Compilation!.......2005-01-17

If you are a fan of the Broadway Musicals, this is a collection that you should purchase. Since I got the 5 disc set I've enjoyed listening to it. The majority of the songs are done by the original singers. The collection is priceless considering that you will have over 100 songs from popular musicals since the beginning of Broadway

What A Waste!.......2006-06-25

This is just a terrible album. Benson is capable of far better things than this mindless fluff. "Corny" is the best way to describe it. This sounds like one of those contractual obligation albums, where an artist just releases anything to fulfill their contract. Don't waste your money on this garbage!

Why Only two stars???????.......2005-02-11

How much you like this CD depends on why you like George in the first place. If you like his vocals, and his love songs, they are on here, and take up much of the album. If, like me, you prefer his instrumentals, they too are on here, and even through they are the minority, they are the reasons I enjoy this CD. Standouts are c-smooth, and poquito spanish, poquito funk, which are firing. Personally i wish george would do an instrumental cd, but maybe one day.

Benson at his best.......2004-04-07

It's been several years since I purchased anything by George Benson. I wasnn't really sure what he was doing these days. Well, I can tell you, he's doing better than ever. You can't go wrong with one of his cd's, even if you've never heard one single track; you won't be sorry. Track 4, "C-Groove" was the only cut I had heard before I purchased the cd, but track 1,5, and 7 are by far my favorites, then comes track 9, 2, 3, 8,...well, the entire cd is great. You won't be disappointed if you're a Benson fan.

"Standing Together" is a Smooth Treat!.......2000-09-23

The "staple" of jazz guitar that we all know as George Benson returns with nine tracks of smooth "feel good" music. You just can't help but get into this one. From the 1st track, "C-smooth" to the last "Keep Rollin'" George just keeps the sweetness comin'. What can I say? Its George. You won't be disappointed.

Very average.......2000-03-26

Cruise Control is the closes cut to the Old George Benson.far to much of the material he plays it safe.The That's Right Disc was Better than this one.His Vocals are alright and There's some trademark Benson Guitar Playing but overall this is Cocktail Lite from a Man who is a Legend and can do most of this by the Numbers Material in His Sleep.

another classic gem.......2005-10-07

the second release of the band to date. this album was originally released back in 1981 summer by solar records. 'tuff', 'hold out', 'I've been watching you', 'I got what you need' and the title track are synth-based jams can easily burn up the dancefloor in a minute. slow jams are pleasant too especially 'I wont let you be lonely' is my favourite. you can get the feeling of groove all the way down as you listen to this album. the cover photo of the band with oriental-über-space boogie-ish outwears is nice and stylish also. a must have.

Boy this brings back memories..........2003-04-25

I met the mailman at the mailbox--I just couldn't wait!!! This cd brought back so many memories-I think I fell in love with my ex all over again! This is definitely some of the best of Midnight Star.

Great CD.......2006-02-28

If you like Donna the Buffalo, you will like this Ithaca style music. It's Americana at its best. But, I'm not sure why you should pay thiry bucks to an Amazon reseller since CD is readily available at funkyside.com for fourteen and at chautauquaamp.com for fifteen. You can listen to sound bites at funkyside. Unfortunately, band is breaking up so this will probably be the last CD for current members although I would guess that "survivors" will regroup with a new cast.
