Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Better than the broadway version
This London version of CATS "blows away" the broadway version. Anyone who has listened to both will surely agree!! If you think the broadway one is better, then you don't "know" music or musical talent when you hear it. There is so much passion in the London cast. They are not "going through the motions". A must have for fans of musicals and the theater.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Okay - good for the London Cast hankerers
I am happy to see an abridged version of the Original London Cast recording of CATS available in the market, especially to the US market. I don't really consider this to be the finest cast recording, but I am willing to let the beginning purchaser and those who own the Broadway soundtrack try this out. I am a little bit more enthusiastic about the abridged London soundtrack because you needn't tire your ears and feel unhappy from listening to too much of its underpowerdness. Of course, we have Elaine Paige and Brian Blessed singing very well as Grizabella and Old Deuteronomy, and we have complete versions of "Gumbie Cat" and "Ad-Dressing."

You should get this beautiful recording!It's the best!I might not have the Hightlights cd but I do have the compleate recording!Of course Ms. Paige gives a better interpretation of Grizabella.And Mr. Blessed is Old Dueteronemy!This is the''Dream Cast''!This recording also features the missing ''Billy McCaw''!And the original music to ''Mongojerrie and Rumpulteazer''.It also includes the original ''Addressing of Cats''!In all this is a must buy!But don't take my word for it buy it yourself and you'll see that this import is the best of the best!
