After seeing Ms. Buckley perform twice over this past weekend, I have to say that there is nothing like seeing this tremendous talent in person. But, if you want a taste of Betty in some of her finest roles, then Betty Buckley's Broadway is a must-have! This CD is a collection of Betty's most memorable Broadway performances. Among them, He Plays the Violin from the original Broadway cast of 1776. What a flawless performance! And what collection of Betty Buckley's Broadway performaces would be complete without a recording of Memory, from Cats? Among the other selections are Perfect Strangers and The Writing on the Wall from Edwin Drood, and a rousing performance of Rose's Turn from Gypsy! But perhaps the best find for any Buckley fan, at least it was for me, are two songs from Ms. Buckley's performance in Sunset Blvd. These songs, Surrender and New Ways to Dream were previously released on a near impossible to find CD 'New Ways to Dream'. This CD was sold at Betty's performances of Sunset Blvd. Buy Betty Buckley's Broadway. Listen to Betty Buckley's Broadway. And, if you get the chance, PLEASE go see Ms. Buckley perform live. There's nothing like watching this great artist at work. She feels every word, every note she sings. Betty Buckley will take your breath away!!

3.0 out of 5 stars Betty's Greatest Hits, December 29, 1999

By 

Timothy Moreland (NEW YORK, NY) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Betty Buckley's Broadway (Audio CD)

Good overview of Betty Buckley's famous recordings. Most of the songs exist on other records though. If you own all of her CD's you already have most of these songs. Nevertheless, one Sunset BLvd recording does not exist for her listeners. THis is a great CD for anyone who is a newcomer to Betty's voice.

5.0 out of 5 stars Buckley Triumphs, November 28, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Betty Buckley's Broadway (Audio CD)

Fans of Betty Buckley, your prayers have been answered. At last, a CD which traces her career back to her show-stopping perfornance in the original 1776. From there its an emotional roller coaster ride through the shows which have made her a legend,including : Edward Drood, Carrie, Song and Dance, Gypsy and , unforgettably, Sunset Boulevard. For those of us who can't get enough of Ms. Buckley, this is an essential listening experience.
