The singing is a bit cheesy, but not only is this the first ever live performance of The Rocky Horror Show but it is all sung by those in the movie... Tim Curry, Patricia Quinn, Little Nell and Richard O'Brien. However, there is no Susan Sarandon, Barry Bostwick, Peter Hinwood (Rocky) or, obviously, Meatloaf.

I really enjoyed this album. The stage show is so much faster and more energetic than the film. OK, so the album may seem a bit rough compared to later versions of Rocky Horror, but this is the first cast recording and the enthusisasm and energy of the cast make this a lot of fun. Out of all the Rocky Horror albums, this remains my favourite because of its originality.

One thing you have to remember about Rocky Horror is that it was a stageshow before being a film. The stageshow was small. So small, in fact, that its largest initial audience was around 50 people. This is the origianl cast recording, completed in under 24 hours, and marketed like tomorrow doesn't exist. The band is small and tinny, the vocals are a little dodgy to say the least at times, but it does feature 2 songs not available on the film sound track. Buy it - if only to see how the Rocky Horror spiralled into the success story it is nowadays.
