Sometimes you can go home. At least for a little while. I bought the cd because my mom used to play it when I was a kid. She even sent me on a blind date whith her friends daughter to see the Toronto production in the early 80's. The musical was better than the date :)
But after listening to the sound track I forgot how over the top some of the songs are. Let me say though I am into music I am not a huge "musical" fan. It was nice to bring back memories of growing up but I'd rather stay rooted in the present...
I WRITE MODERN DAY ADVENTURE ROMANCE NOVELS. I LOOK FOR INSPIRATION WHERE EVER I CAN FIND IT. IN THE WOMEN I LOVE, IN NATURE, IN THE HEARTS OF MY FAMILY, IN GREAT ART AND GREAT MUSIC. I AM A BEST FRIEND TO MANY PEOPLE I AM A MAN OF HONOR AND INTEGRITY A "STAND UP GUY"....
THIS WAS A GREAT MUSICAL AND I AM ESPECIALLY FOND OF THE SONG
"THE IMPOSSIBLE DREAM"
"MAN OF LA MANCHA", IS A TIMELESS CLASSIC...
NOW MORE THAN EVER MANKIND NEEDS TO STAND UP FOR FREEDOM....

I like the music because, I saw the show, and when in high school I was in the band and we preformed the title song and born free at a foot ball half time show. and it has always been one of my favorite peices of music.
I wanted to purchase this particular album because it was the original cast. I love it, it truly takes me back to Richard Kiley's greatest performance. I decided to buy it when I recently watch the old movie version. TERRIBLE. Great CD and in perfect condition.
