Boy From Oz Soundtrack CD

 Peter was great...Hugh may be even better!
While the show itself does not rate with the likes of South Pacific, Guys and Dolls and La Cage the music is still most enjoyable and, of course, Hugh Jackman's performance is unforgettable.

 What a disappointment !!!
If this is a sample of the show...it's pretty lame. Hugh sings ok but the compositions are not good.

 Jackman's great!
Reviews say the show isn't that spectacular, but Hugh Jackman shines in the Peter Allen repertoire. Isabel Keating channels Judy Garland so closely that it's scary -- a bravura performance.

 Jackman is fabulous!
You can't judge the CD unless you have seen the show, which is great. Hugh Jackman is spell-binding in the show, and the music is even better when you know the story line. It's great anyway!

 captures only part of the show's energy
I think I like this recording mostly because I did see the show with Hugh in November. To hear some of the songs without being able to picture what happened on stage does leave something to be desired but when you can...dynamite. Hugh Jackman is superb as is the young man who plays his boyhood self.
