If you already own the High School Musical soundtrack, this live version may be a bit redundant; on the other hand, many of us just can't get enough of these songs, and it's fun to hear the stars of the movie perform them with live energy against a background of screaming fans--who occasionally sing along at the top of their lungs, as on "Breaking Free." The biggest change is that Zac Efron (Troy) didn't participate and was replaced by Drew Seeley. But Seeley acquits himself well of the task, particularly on his two big duets with Vanessa Hudgens, "What I’ve Been Looking For" and "Breaking Free." The former, as fans of the movie know, gets repeated in a super-poppy version sung by Lucas Grabeel (Ryan) and Ashley Tisdale (Sharpay), the kind of energetic performers who so often steal the spotlight from the nominal stars. In addition, Hudgens, Seeley, Tisdale, and Corbin Bleu (Chad) boost their solo careers by getting to perform bonus songs; they are from their respective albums but completely fit in the HSM sound. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

4.0 out of 5 stars Lets Put on a Show, June 27, 2007

Those fans of High School Musical-If you remember the old Mickey Rooney & Judy Garland (KIDS LETS PUT ON A SHOW) movies, it is similar in vein..has taken the High School Musiacalmovie one step farther than the film did, The Concert.

Lets say it this way, ITS great entertainment!if you have not gone, go to the show. I wanted to go with my nieces and could not. I did viuw the concert DVD and I was Hooked. Note you do not need to see the movie to enjoy this show

These young preformers (all from the cast of HSM) put on a show that capture the spirit of the movie..thanks to their talent and the magic of Disney. It is great family entertainment, which many have gone away from.

The soundtrack recording is a live version of the show and allows the CD audience a chance to relive the moments and groove with it again. Long after the stage show is a memory. This could play on Broadway for the closing Disney Beauty and Beast

and on disk two is a 5 cut DVD on the concert to enjoy, Is it worth it. Well its NO Mickey and Judy, but it works as great fun-so listen and watch the magic with your kids, relations and others who are tween aged

It's so nice to finally hear the true voices of High School Musical without studio interference. I was lucky enough to see the tour, and this cd confirms one thing: that Zac Efron did very little singing on the original soundtrack. Drew Seeley sounds exactly like the voice on the origianl cd, and I am glad that he is finally getting the chance to show who was really behind the voice in the original movie. Everyone else sounds great too, the audience is having an amazing time, and there are some new arrangements. All fans of HSM should buy this without question.
