5.0 out of 5 stars awe-inspiring, 6 Nov 2004
This is the ultimate blood brothers soundtrack. I have seen the musical twice and love it. It is funny and sad. Its realistic and british musical theatre at its best and shows real people and their emotions. Definatly the best recording i hope i can persuade you to get this and i hope you enjoy as much as i do.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Musical Ever Written!!!, 29 Sep 2004
This is by far the best recording of Blood Brothers, the best musical ever written! Actually this is the only recording of the show that I have but I have listened to samples from the others and you can't beat Stephanie Lawrence as Mrs J!! (apart from Linda Nolan of course if anyone has seen the current UK touring production.....if there was a recording of the UK touring cast it would be the icing on the cake!!!) The other recordings are OK but I find Petula Clark can often sound more Irish than Liverpuddlian! The other recordings are perhaps a little out-dated.

If you haven't seen the show live yet then you have missed out on a lot!! No recording could ever do Blood Brothers justice. The sheer emotion of the storyline supported by the incredibly simple yet captivating score will leave you thinking about it for weeks after!

Anyway.....back to the recording.....every cast member on this particular recording has a strong voice and there are no major sections that I would pick fault with. All of the music is included on this CD with the exception of a few, short reprisals/previews of individual numbers (e.g. the preview of "Oh Bright New Day" in Act I). The songs that stand out in particular are the upbeat "Oh Bright New Day", the lush ballad "I'm Not Saying a Word" and of course the heart-rendering ("Easy Terms" later reprised as "Light Romance") and "Tell Me It's Not True" with Stephanie Lawrence never holding back her fantastically powerful voice.

If you only want to buy one recording of the show then this would have to be it!!! The cast brilliantly portray the comical, romantic and heart-breaking aspects of the story, but still leave new things to be discovered at the live performances. Similarly if you have to only see one musical in your life then Blood Brothers would be the perfect choice!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Blow Your Mind Away., 24 Nov 2000
By A Customer
This is the best version of the one of the best musicals around.

If you want a musical with a difference you can't go wrong with this one. If you want a happy, jolly musical go and see Wizard of Oz but if you want something different you're at the right place. It's a story that will move you. You'll be laughing one minute and crying the next.

I should get back to the cd... I've listened to all versions of this show and think that this is the best one. The cast that they've used is brilliant, there are certain people I would have liked to see or hear like Stephen Palfreman who played Mickey in London but nevertheless..excellent.
