by
Original Broadway Cast
The story of Chicago originated as a play written by Maurine Dallas Watkins, resulting in a feature film released in 1942 starring Ginger Rogers. This film, titled Roxie Hart, was updated in the '70s by the team of Fred Ebb and John Kander (a pair of established musical writers) as well as Bob Fosse, who directed. Fosse was a well-known ...

Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes
Although the ten-track disc is criminally brief, The Best of Harold Melvin & the Bluenotes contains most of their biggest hits and offers a good portrait of one of the finest soul groups of the '70s. Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide

Jim Nabors
Collectables' 2003 Jim Nabors two-fer Love Me With All Your Heart/By Request collects the genial crooner's 1966 album Love Me With All Your Heart and 1967's By Request onto one deluxe CD. Both albums feature Nabors' somewhat histrionic and stiff vocal style as he tackles standards and pop tunes both great and obscure. The nascent dawn of the Age ...

by
Original Cast Recording
Chicago, the 1975 John Kander-Fred Ebb musical, took an unusual path to revival in 1996. Though the original show was a hit, running 923 performances, it was remembered as a triumph for choreographer/director/co-librettist Bob Fosse and stars Gwen Verdon and Chita Rivera rather than for its story (based on the 1926 play that was also the basis for ...

Dusty Springfield
It's practically a cliché to say that Dusty Springfield was the greatest white soul singer to ever come out of the U.K., but like most clichés, it's a commonplace wisdom that's based in an obvious fact. While most blue-eyed soul belters sounded as if they were determined to worry a song into submission though brute force and melismatic torture, ...

Brenda Lee hasn't been treated well by reissue culture -- no remastered albums -- and, excepting the Bear Family box set she deserved (and received), only a few compilations, like this two-disc set from MCA. Fortunately, Anthology, Vols. 1 & 2 (1956-1980) is all most fans will need to appreciate why Lee was one of the most intense performing ...

Capitol repackaged and re-released Frank Sinatra's Duets/Duets II as a slipcased box set to coincide with the singer's 90th birthday. It's not a bad way to acquire the albums if you don't already own them, and it does include one bonus track "My Way" with Willie Nelson, making this version of marginal interest to hardcore collectors. Al Campbell ...

by
Dusty Springfield
Although not quite as good as her first American LP, Dusty is a good mix of soul/R&B covers and orchestrated pop/rock in the manner of early Dionne Warwick. Standouts include the cover of Bacharach-David's "I Just Don't Know What to Do With Myself" (a British hit), "All Cried Out," and the epic ballad "Summer Is Over," which foreshadows the style ...

This British three-CD set breaks down into two distinct parts: Fred Astaire's first recordings and his last. The first disc brings together 19 recordings made for the British labels HMV and Columbia between 1923 and 1933. These are recordings made when Astaire was appearing in stage shows in London, and on eight of them he duets with his sister ...

Though Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous isn't quite as quirky as the soundtrack for the first Miss Congeniality film, it's a more consistent collection that still has its fair share of personality. A mix of vintage disco, soul, and pop with a handful of newer, girl-powered pop singles, the collection hangs together well, especially with ...

Aretha Franklin
Franklin's Columbia years are hard to summarize in compilations, even fairly extensive ones such as this two-CD set, which includes six previously unreleased tracks and one previously unavailable alternate take among its 40 songs. In part that's because she explored several different styles during this era without really finding a home in any of ...

On her debut solo album, Broadway veteran Dorothy Loudon performs a set of theater songs she was too young to do on stage. The exceptions are the title song, from Follies, which she sang memorably at the 1984 Tony Awards show, and "Bobo's" from The Act. The rest of the album consists of material from the 1920s, '30s, and '40s, written by the ...

by
Julie London
A good idea for a two-on-one CD, combining a pair of London's 1960s albums on one disc. The only problem is that neither album is that good, and together they don't come out as terribly exciting. Much more to the point, however, is the close, glittering sound, which puts the string section on "Call Me Irresponsible" or the organ on "Our Day WIll ...
