Absurdly enjoyable --New York Times

Product Description

Rock Of Ages is a Tony nominated smash hit musical comedy currently running on Broadway and starring American Idol's Constantine Maroulis and Amy Spanger. In 1987 on the Sunset Strip, a small-town girl met a big-city dreamer - and in L.A.'s most legendary rock club, they fell in love to the greatest songs of the '80s. It's a hilarious feel-good love story told through the hit songs (including several medleys / live mash-ups) of iconic rockers Journey, Styx, REO Speedwagon, Foreigner, Pat Benatar, Whitesnake, and many more. The album was mixed by Michael Barbiero (Appetite For Destruction, ...And Justice For All).

5.0 out of 5 stars Almost as good as being in the audience!, June 2, 2009

I saw Rock of Ages both off and on Broadway and totally loved this very original and creative rock concert-Broadway musical. Though I was looking forward to the cast album, I was not anticipating a recording that completely re-invents the actual theater experience, but New Line Records and Rock of Ages have brilliantly managed to do just that, thanks to the well-chosen bits of actual dialogue from the play, d'Arienzo's clever musical book and the outstanding talents of the cast.
Break out your wine coolers, order in some 'delicious Arbys' and be prepared for a rawking 80's good time with this extremely well done Broadway cast recording.

5.0 out of 5 stars IT ROCKS!, June 2, 2009

By	E. Hayes (CT) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Rock Of Ages: Original Broadway Cast Recording (MP3 Download)

After seeing the show four times I could not wait for this to come out and I'm happy to say I am not disappointed. Everyone's singing is so tight, the dialogue that ties the music to the scenes is priceless, and it's very true to the story--like being at the show again! Especially enjoy the songs with James Carpinello (as Stacee Jaxx) where he channels his inner rock star! Someone not familiar with the play might be wondering what the chit-chat is about, but if you've been lucky enough to see it (or just love the 80s), you will LOVE LOVE LOVE this cast recording.

We are soooo excited to get this CD! It's already available on iTunes and it is fantastic! Constantine's voice resonates with such rich clarity. The entire cast does a fantastic job, and by listening to the songs in the order listed here, you can close your eyes and be back at the show instantly. And if you haven't seen the show yet, GET THERE! Congratulations to the Cast of ROA for their 5 Tony nominations, and especially to Constantine for his Nomination for Best Leading Actor in a Musical! Can't wait till June 7th to see if he wins it!
