Our Take

Ah, darling readers, brace yourselves for a delightful dive into the forgotten gem that is "Lost Broadway 1961". This compilation of original cast recordings from Broadway's obscure musicals is a real treat for those craving something off the beaten path.

The album kicks off with a bang, showcasing the quirks and charms of the forgotten world of 1961 Broadway. Each track is a time capsule, transporting you back to a era where musical theatre was experimental and daring, before the days of jukebox musicals and Disney adaptations.

From the whimsical melodies of "Smokey Joe's Café" to the haunting ballads of "Subways Are for Sleeping", each song is a little nugget of gold waiting to be unearthed. The vocal performances are top-notch, capturing the essence of a bygone era with flair and finesse.

But it's not all sunshine and rainbows in Broadway's forgotten past. The album also delves into the darker, more obscure side of musical theatre, with tracks like "The Conquering Hero" and "Sherry!" offering a glimpse into the underbelly of 1961 Broadway.

Overall, "Lost Broadway 1961" is a must-listen for any musical theatre aficionado looking to expand their horizons. It's a treasure trove of forgotten classics that deserve to be rediscovered and celebrated. So grab your top hat and cane, darling readers, and prepare to be swept away on a journey through a lost era of Broadway magic. Tally ho!
