Rockin' Zydeco Party album
$7.69
The Warren Brothers have a lean and clean rootsy sound, craft solid songs, harmonize sweetly, and have an appealingly self-deprecating sense of humor. They're even engaging on TV, where they have their own reality series, Barely Famous, on CMT and have judged on Nashville Star. So why aren't they more compelling on record? It's the same problem that plagues many Music City behind-the-scenes pros -- they have the skills and talent, but they don't have the presence that makes them recording stars. BNA/RCA Records tried to make the duo into stars at the turn of the millennium, but the public wasn't biting, as their singles and albums stalled in the middle of the charts. The label responded by dumping the ...

| | 110 In The Shade: The 2007 Broadway Revival CD (2007) Original Broadway Cast
Rockin' Zydeco Party CD music
$14.79 
At the start of his liner notes to this 2007 Broadway revival cast recording of the 1963 musical 110 in the Shade, theater critic Peter Filichia addresses the main drawback of cast albums, that you can't see the actual production, only listen to "a CD of mostly songs, with connective dialogue." Ironically, that actually may be an advantage in this case, however. The show is based on N. Richard Nash's 1954 Broadway play The Rainmaker, which, as its title suggests, is about Starbuck, a conman who comes to a small Texas town in the 1930s that is suffering from a drought and promises to bring rain. While he's there, he takes the time to romance a local spinster named Lizzie. When Nash came to adapt his play into the musical book to accompany Tom Jones and Harvey Schmidt's songs, a decision was made to tilt the story a bit more toward the spinster, hence the change in title. But it was still an ensemble work. 110 in the Shade was only a modest success on Broadway in 1963-1964, running 330 performances in a season in which it was overshadowed by Hello, Dolly! and Funny Girl. None of its songs became popular outside the theater, and it was not revived on Broadway for more than 43 years. When it was, the reason was that four-time Tony-winning actress/singer Audra McDonald, one of Broadway's major stars, agreed to play Lizzie. The good news is that McDonald is outstanding in anything she does, and she is certainly outstanding in 110 in the Shade. The bad news is that the show was not written as a star vehicle for Lizzie; if anything, Starbuck remains the major role. (In fact, the revival restores "Evenin' Star," a second-act opening number for Starbuck that was cut before the 1963 opening.) Also, Lizzie is meant to be a plain, aging woman who spends most of the evening being humiliated and only at the end comes to see herself as beautiful and empowered. It is not the part for an actress whom the audience views as a gorgeous star from the moment she steps on-stage. Despite, and in part because, of her brilliance, McDonald is essentially miscast. The Roundabout Theatre Company, ...
