Description / My Opinion
|
|
The booklet contains a one page description of this compilation that gathers samples of Jay Records recordings. Actually, this recording was a demo for Jay Records, and John Yap very kindly offered it to me, thus allowing me to complete my collection of Jay Records albums. For existing recordings, there is a picture of the cover and some information about the show. An interesting thing to note is those recordings that have not been published yet by Jay Records: Show Boat, Fiddler On The Roof, 42nd Street, Hair, The Music Man. It also seems that Singin' In The Rain was supposed to be a 2CD recording while it's only a 1CD, the opposite being true for The King And I. This recording is a very good sample of the most famous recordings available from Jay Records. They represent the quality of the sound, of the performers and (as I'm not really a specialist I can't argue), they're supposed to use the original material for each of these musicals. A very interesting item in my collection.
