I'm letting this one slip through the cracks. This isn't a cast album at all. Decca Broadway put out a great CD in 2001 that has A Connecticut Yankee, Higher and Higher, and By Jupiter on it. The only real cast recording is Yankee. But I'm going to pretend Higher and Higher counts. Just because I have it here. All we get are four songs sung by Shirley Ross- who didn't even sing all four in the show...
Can anyone write a melody better than Rodgers? Really? Just incredible. These aren't even the famous songs, and the melodies are just perfect. However. There are cheesy orchestra show choir arrangements that are driving me Vegas. This is not what was in the Shubert Theatre. Overall. Grade. C- (It's not even fair to consider this a recording...)
