Profanity Ruined This CD For Me
The Four Seasons are far and away my favorite music group from the 1960's. I have their albums, CD's and videos. My elementary music class loves singing their songs and I wanted to give copies of this CD to my students. They are to the '60s what ABBA is to the '70s. That said, I was disappointed with The Jersey Boys which I hoped would be equal to the Mamma Mia CD. My main complaint is two uses of the "F" word on The Jersey Boys. If you don't mind this on your CD I suppose you will like it, but I think others should be made aware of its inclusion. However, this sure ruined the CD as far as I'm concerned. I'll stick to listening to the CD of the authentic Four Seasons.
LET'S HEAR IT FOR JOHN LLOYD YOUNG AND PLATTSBURGH, NY!!!
There are already enough reviews written about this high-voltage, always entertaining Original Cast Recording. My two cents' worth: Great re-incarnations of the original Four Seasons' hits. EVERYONE in the cast is marvelous, especially John Lloyd Young as Frankie Valli. I'm sure everyone here in Plattsburgh, NY -- a friendly town of 18 thousand plus on Lake Champlain 61 miles south of Montreal -- is very proud of Mr. Young, the Plattsburgh High School grad. His proud mom is a member of Temple Beth Israel and has to pay for her tickets -- just like everyone else -- when she wants to see him on Broadway.
Terrific Cast Recording!
Many people, including myself, are pretty tired of the lackluster "catalog" musicals churned out these days. There are obvioulsy exceptions (I thoroughly enjoyed "Mamma Mia" & "Movin' Out"), but most are dull.
