Customer Reviews For R&H Fans Artists such as Gordon MacRae, Peggy Lee, Judy Garland, Dick Haymes, Jo Stafford, Bobby Darin, and Nancy Wilson. If you're a fan of R&H, then you'll enjoy this CD full of classical music with classical voices. Be aware: this CD does not contain recordings from the original cast releases, rather it provides new and jazzy versions by popular artists of R&H's era. I bought this CD because of the cover art (I'm into graphic design as well as everything else in the world of the arts) and because I'm a fan of R&H. . . what a treat. This is for those R&H fans who can appreciate all interpretations of their work. :). Garland, Stafford, Lee and more sing Broadway classics One of the hallmarks of the series is that you get Broadway standards done in different musical styles such as Bobby Darin's peppy title track, Nancy Wilson jazzy version of "People Will Say We're in Love" and Jo Stafford's sultry and mellow "Some Enchanted Evening. "Hello Young Lovers" is probably the best of the Capitol Sings series, not only because the hits of Rogers & Hammerstein remain popular but also because this album has some great covers taken from the label's inventory from 1949 to 1965. " There are group harmonies from the Andrews Sisters, the Starlighters and the Jeff Alexander Singers. There are also some songs you have probably never heard, such as Helen O'Connell doing "No Other Love" from "Me and Juliet. " For those of you who are very open minded, there are gender switches, with Tennessee Ernie Ford singing "My Favorite Things," Vic Damone doing "The Sound of Music," and the aforementioned Stafford cover of "Some Enchanted Evening. " The album saves the best for last, with Judy Garland's "You'll Never Walk Alone" and the Sinfonia of London playing "The Carousel Waltz. " Even if you never were around to catch the originals, if you are fans of Rodgers & Hammerstein you will enjoy listening to Peggy Lee, Al Martino and the rest doing their unique interpretations of some of your favorite songs. Very good and highly original interpretations (The compilations by Brad Benedict, who compiled the greatest part of the series except i. One of the best of the series! Far better than for example the Cole Porter and also better than the Gershwin CD in my opinion. e. the ones mentioned above generally prove a sense of humor). Sound quality (remastered):***** Also highly recommendable: The Irvin Berlin collection (listen for example to the ecstatic interpretation of "Blue Skies"). .
