4.0 out of 5 stars Nearly as good, April 16, 2002

By	"lord_oberon" (Waltham, MA, USA) - See all my reviews

The music of Ellegies is some of the most moving I have ever heard. The premise of the musical was that the monologues were from the perspective of those who had died from AIDS and the songs were those who were still alive (only the songs are featured on the album).

The only problem with this album is that it isn't as good as the newer version (which I also have). The newer version has the monologues and stars of the stage that are more famous. However, the orginal cast album does stand on its own and is the perfect addition to any collection.

In addition, if you go to First Knight, the label's, webpage you can get more information.
