 An Amazing Dolly!
Submitted on: 2009-02-17 |

| I've been in three productions of Dolly and now own three cast albums. And this is the best of the bunch! Wow! Wow! Wow!, fellas! What an absolute treat to hear Carol Channing recreate her starring role...thirty years later. The rest of the cast is great including the marvelous Florence Lacey as Irene Malloy. The orchestrations are very exciting and make my heart jump...especially "Put On Your Sunday Clothes". It's great fun hearing the Waiter's Gallop, in fact I immediately start to sweat when I hear it since I was a waiter in two productions. I can't say enough for this great cast recording. Thank goodness someone had the brains to make a recording of this production. |

| I have'nt heard the Original Original (from 1964). I can only assume this is a case of The Emperors New clothes and no one had the courage to kill this recording at birth. Whoever had the idea that asking Carol Channing to revisit the part of Dolly Levi was worthwhile deserves to be drummed out of the Entertainment Industry. In case there is any confusion this recording is dire. It sounds like Walter Mattau after a very heavy night on the tiles (I have no reason to assume Walter M ever had a heavy night on the tiles). The only reason to buy this is to give confidence to anyone who fancies trying musical theatre and thinks their voice is not up to scratch. If this can reach Broadway there is hope for anyone. I am only familiar with a few recordings of Dolly but would suggest that so far Barbra Striesand in the movie is the best bet if its music you enjoy. |

 Variation on Original Cast Album w/ Plus & Minus
Submitted on: 2006-07-01 |
|
| The 1994 Farewell Tour revival album of Dolly is smart, snappy & of interest to fans, tho I doubt it replaces the original cast album for warmth & charm. Channing is amazing but not in good voice (if you doubt she ever had a good voice listen to her on the legendary Jazz Baby CD). The revival version of Ribbons Down My Back by Florence Lacey sets a new standard for that number. At times the chorus energy seems a bit forced rather than hitting the right tone for this tuneful highly agreeable musical adaptation of The Matchmaker. This version should not replace the original, but make a good addition to anyone's collection of major Broadway musicals. |

 RETIRE DOLLY
Submitted on: 2005-06-17 |

| FIRST THE GOOD NEWS-THIS IS THE FIRST NEARLY COMPLETE RECORDING OF THE "DOLLY" SCORE INCLUDING "THE WAITERS GALLOP" THE FRANTIC AND ENERGETIC DANCE THAT PRECEDES THE TITLE NUMBER. NOW FOR THE BAD NEWS-WHETHER YOU LIKE HER OR NOT THE CHARM ABOUT CAROL CHANNING IS HER VOICE WHICH SOUNDS LIKE A STRANGULATED DUCK-ON THIS RECORDING AND WELL INTO HER SEVENTIES SHE SOUNDS MORE LIKE A COMATOSE DUCK. SO MY SUGGESTION IS BUY THE ORIGINAL CAST ALBUM WHEN HER UNUSUAL VOICE HAD ITS VIBRANCY AND BUY THIS FOR ITS COMPLETENESS WITH NOSTALGIA FOR WHAT USED TO BE. |

Dolly (and Carol) are back where they belong!

| HELLO DOLLY! is still one of musical theatre's crowning-glories. The original 1964 production catapulted Carol Channing into the annals of Broadway folklore and the role became her signature performance. In 1994, Carol Channing and DOLLY! came back to Broadway for a limited-run revival. Channing has lost few steps since originating the role and turns in a fabulous performance. Like a fine wine, her performance and portrayal of Dolly grew richer and more honed. Channing was surrounded by a strong cast including Florence Lacey as Irene Molloy, Jay Garner as Horace Vandergelder, Michael DeVries as Cornelius Hackl, Cory English as Barnaby Tucker and Lori Ann Mahl as Minnie Fay. Florence Lacey sings a deeply-affecting "Ribbons Down My Back", DeVries and English are wonderful with "Dancing" and Jay Garner is the perfect stuffy foil to Channing's manic and free-wheeling matchmaker. There are many differences to the original 1964 cast album, including the addition of a new, longer Overture, and the extended sequence to "Dancing". Sound quality is also very impressive, though the original cast album's sound quality is still as fresh as paint. Get this superb CD today (or buy both albums if you have yet to discover the joys of this landmark Broadway show). |
