A true classic done right.

Without a doubt the best recording of Gypsy as well as, in my opinion, the best cast ever seen in this show on either stage or screen. Patti LuPone is THE definitive Mama Rose. Laura Benanti is a revelation. Boyd Gaines has reinvented the role of Herbie. Plus Tony Yazbeck and Leigh Ann Larkin provide phenomenal vocal work in their respective roles. It makes my heart happy that this show, as old as it is, is not only still being performed but has reached a whole new level. It will change you.
Mama Patti

In my opinion Patti LuPone is one of, if not the, best Mama Roses to ever grace the stage and you can hear it in this recording. LuPone makes the character her own, yet at the same time portrays the classic mama rose and has the vocal range to devour the score and make it a brilliant work of beauty. Definitely a must have album for any Gypsy fans.
SIMPLY THE BEST!!!!!!

Sorry Bernadette...

but Patti owns this role. Ethel who? HaHaHa. I love Ethel Merman and Bernadette Peters, but Patti is my all time favorite. This soundtrack is worth every penny that I payed for it. If you Love Patti then you have to have this album. The way she belts, and her vibrato...you wont be disappointed!
ONE SONG? Made me buy it!

I bought this recording because of "Rose's Turn!" I am a trained singer, actor and performer and after hearing this song, I could NOT buy the entire cast album. Patti's performance in vocal terms and interpretation? Well, truly SPECTACULAR! If unsure whether or not to purchase, simply buy or even listen to the 30 second clip of "Rose's Turn". Every single word that Patti sings is wrapped with her gift of sublime interpretation and powerhouse vocal chops. She CHEWS the lyrics and spits them out with tenderness, gutsiness, sensuality and humor. BRAVA MISS PATTI!!!!! As for the rest of the Cast? SUBLIME... Great job Gals and Guys! My heart goes out to your talent.
Amazing.

Not only was the actual show one of the best I've ever seen on Broadway (saw it twice), this recording really does capture the essence of the show. This recording makes you feel like they're performing it for you through song, which is a wonderful thing as it closes soon. Buy it!
