The good news is that Gregory Hines, playing the part of Jelly Roll Morton in this successful Broadway musical, creates a full-bodied character and performs it with conviction and gusto. His Jelly is proud, impressive, and ultimately tragic. The bad news is that he is also fictional: Writer-director George C. Wolfe has distorted Jelly Roll Morton's true story to tell a fable about African-American assimilation and the evolution of jazz. Unfortunately, Luther Henderson's musical adaptation does to Morton's music what Wolfe does to his life, and the result will be frowned upon by jazz fans, even though it conforms to Broadway conventions. ~ William Ruhlmann

Panufnik: Sinfonia Votiva; Sessions: Concerto For Orchestra
$7.99
Michael John La Chiusa's off-Broadway 1994 musical Hello Again, based on Arthur Schnitzler's play La Ronde, contains ten two-character scenes chronicling sexual encounters in different decades of the 20th century -- "The Soldier and the Nurse" in scene two, "The Nurse and the College Boy" in scene three, "The College Boy and the Young Wife" in scene four, etc. As such, it is an ambitious undertaking and necessarily episodic. On-stage, there may have been many unifying visual elements, but on record, the sung-through scenes pass by quickly and sketchily, simultaneously full of deep feeling and passion, yet not presented in enough detail to convey those emotions fully to the listener. Although there are nods to musical styles across the century, much of the music is in a post-Sondheim musical recitative style: it's a musical because the dialogue is sung, not because there are real songs. ~ William Ruhlmann
Recorded at Clinton Studio A, New York, New York on March 7 & 8, 1994. Includes liner notes by Ira Weitzman.

Music composed by Harold Arlen. Lyrics written by Yip Harburg.
Music composed by George Gershwin. Lyrics written by Du Bose Heyward and Ira Gerswhin.
The first disc of this 2-in-1 CD package, the original 1958 cast recording for JAMAICA, marks Lena Horne's Broadway debut. Though only a minor Broadway production, JAMAICA featured fine compositions from Harold Arlen, many of which were written specifically to showcase Horne. Numbers like "Cocoanut Sweet" and "Ain't It the Truth" would sound right at home in Horne's regular performance repertoire.
The second disc features highlights from PORGY AND BESS with Horne and the great Harry Belafonte singing the lead roles. The sessions, recorded in 1959, were directed by Horne's husband Lenny Hayton, and both Horne and Belafonte turn in dazzling performances of well-known classics like "My Man's Gone Now" and "I Got Plenty of Nothin'." Both albums have been long out of print, so this twofer reissue is a welcome release.
These original RCA recordings also feature Harry Belafonte, Ricardo Montalban and Ossie Davis. The Original Broadway Cast album Jamaica is from 1957, Porgy & Bess is from 1959. 28 tracks. Collectables. 2003.

Panufnik: Sinfonia Votiva; Sessions: Concerto For Orchestra
$13.95
Originally released on ABCS (OC3). Includes liner notes by Rick Ward, Jule Styne, Peter Filichia.
The 1964 Broadway musical Fade Out - Fade In seemed to have an unbeatable creative and performing team, including veteran songwriters Jule Styne, Betty Comden, and Adolph Green along with emerging star Carol Burnett. Burnett -- who had debuted on Broadway in Once Upon a Mattress five years earlier and since made a name for herself on television as a co-star of The Garry Moore Show (but was not yet a TV legend in her own right) -- was given a star vehicle in the show, set in 1930s Hollywood, and a strong supporting cast that featured stage veteran Jack Cassidy, comic actor Lou Jacobi, and soon-to-be TV star Tina Louise. The show sold tickets when Burnett was in it, but she wasn't in it for long, and accounts differ as to why. Burnett claimed to have suffered whiplash in a taxicab, but a court that later forced her to fulfill her commitment to the show (after she had signed a lucrative, long-term TV contract) didn't buy that explanation. What is clear is that she began to miss performances, and the show thereafter disappeared, never to be revived, with a cast album that went out of print and was only reissued on CD close to 40 years later. On the cast album for Fade Out - Fade In, Comden and Green turn in the occasionally witty lyric in their often sarcastic style, and Styne (who was writing Funny Girl at the same time) seems to have done adequate work. It's Burnett and, to an extent, Cassidy who make the album worth hearing. ~ William Ruhlmann
Recorded at The Mark Hellinger Theatre, New York, New York on May 31, 1964.
