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). | ||||||

Have some music to recommend? I can always use a few pointers. Use the comments link at the bottom of the page. | ||||||

Gypsy / Original Broadway Cast | |
There's a bit on one of the Forbidden Broadway CDs (sadly, not one the iTMS carries yet) where Phantom star Michael Crawford is abused by the ghost of Ethel Merman over his reliance on modern technology to project his voice to the second balcony. Ethel Merman didn't need no stinkin' microphones, as this 1959 recording of Gypsy makes clear. They had voices in those days, to misquote Norma Desmond. Ms. Merman was good and loud; Lena Lamont would surely have approved. | |
