Posted: 1/27/06 at 11:02pmGoing to buy three CDs and have a huge list of potentials. I LOVE Ahrens & Flaherty - which songs should I listen to from DESSA ROSE that would sell my decision of buying the Cast Recording?
"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

At The Glen is AMAZING
Twelve Children and Just Over the Line are good.
the rest...eh.... but I love the album more than the show.
but then again, when I saw it, Joan Hess was on for Rachel York, and kinda butchered the score.

Posted: 1/27/06 at 11:18pmI have to agree with WithoutATrace. Those are my favorites as well.
MassOfMen on 5/17/07: "and lastly, I have no vested interest in LB. I have seen the show, I paid my money (a lot of money for that tix) I didn't watch it on a bootleg, yes I saw the flesh and bone of the people up there working their tails off. But do I really have to explain myself to you? are you the judge jury and executioner of Bwyworld.com message board? no.
But I digress, I will leave this subject as I am bored of the rebuttals anyway, and go back to "wasting my time" with the job of building buildings. We have chat boards for architects as well, ya know."

Gypsy, I'm with you all the way. Your list, plus "Capture the Girl" and "Better If I Died." But then again, "Ladies" and "Ten Petticoats" are really fun, so they give a nice change of pace.

Posted: 1/28/06 at 9:34amI also enjoy "Fly Away" and "The Gold Band." Just striking.
