| What you're about to read is a collection of pointers to some of the music I've discovered on the iTunes Music Store, music I like enough that I want to share it. If you're an iPod owner and an iTunes fan (and if you aren't, what are you doing here?), maybe you'll find something new. Click on any of the CD covers to bounce over to the store and sample a few tracks. And then maybe stop by my other blog for a few well chosen words (and maybe a random snark or two). |

| Highlights from Les Misérables / Original Broadway Cast | |
|
I was watching the last season of Angel on DVD recently. In
a pivotal (but aren't they all?) episode called A Hole In The
World, Angel and Spike jet off to England in search of a cure for
Fred. Which I realize means nothing to you if you aren't a fan. But
bear with me for a moment. And keep in mind that Angel and Spike are
both vampires who are now forces for good. Oh, and that Fred's a
girl, not that it matters for this discussion.
Anyway, Spike suggests that as long as they'll be in the neighborhood, they should take in a show after they save Fred.
Spike: "Trust me; halfway through the first act you'll be drinking humans again." One complaint about both Les Miz and Phantom is that a lot of the songs repeat each other. That works a lot better on the stage than it does listening in the car. But it's much less of an issue with a highlights album like this. And at a little under an hour, it's not the endurance test we theatergoers remember with anguish. Maybe we're the misérables they're talking about. |
