10 - 13 are ranked pretty randomly.
I hold Starlight Express close to my heart, I performed it. It was so much fun and I met a lot of new people. The stage was built, and we even used roller blades.
I know that musical and Joseph very well... I was supposed to be a part of Joseph, but we never actually performed it.

What? People don't like ALW?!? I'm in shock.
Okay, I haven't seen all of his, but the ones I have are ranked:
1. Phantom of the Opera (love, love, love this!)
2. Aspects of Love
3. Evita
4. Cats
5. Jesus Christ Superstar.
Everything after JCS and Evita sounds the same. It's like one long show with interchangeable songs.
I like Song and Dance and Evita.
Perhaps it's because of Bernadette and Patti.
Yes, that's probably it.
Ok i'm really nto a fan of his but this should be fun anyway since i have seen a ton of his shows.
1. Evita (far and away)
then theres a huge break
2. Joseph and the amazing...
3. Starlight express
4. Song and Dance
and these are only tollerable
5. Aspects of Love
6. Cats
7. Jesus Christ Superstar
8. Phatom
To me these recordings are not even tollerable (i have yet to see the shows)
9. Sunset Boulevard
10. The Woman in White
GASP! I forgot Variations (even though it is in Song and Dance). But, I love it, so I will seperate the two.

THE BEAUTIFUL GAME
SUNSET BOULEVARD
WHISTLE DOWN THE WIND
TELL ME ON A SUNDAY/SONG & DANCE
JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR
EVITA
JOSEPH
THE WOMAN IN WHITE
ASPECTS OF LOVE
PHANTOM OF THE OPERA

STARLIGHT EXPRESS (the only ALW show I totally hated!)
My top 4:
01> The Phantom of the Opera
02> Aspects of Love
03> Evita
04> Jesus Christ Superstar
The rest just kind of float around for me or I haven't heard them enough. (Cats and Starlight- I like some of the songs but cannot tolerate the whole show.
Bob, you are incorrect!! STARLIGHT is the BEST ALW show!!!!
