Fosse (1999 Original Broadway Cast)

Fans of Fosse--the Broadway dance revue highlighting the varied output of choreographer-director Bob Fosse--will undoubtedly want to snatch up this cast recording of the music. Though it's missing a few tunes found in the live production, the disc still presents some of the best-loved numbers that made Fosse famous from musicals such as Dancin', Sweet Charity, and Chicago. Jane Lanier, Michael Paternostro, and Alex Sanchez do a fun take on The Pajama Game's "Steam Heat." Shannon Lewis's sultry "I Gotcha" (from 1972's Liza with a Z television special) is one of the disc's catchiest tunes. The Chicago tunes--"Nowadays," "The Hot Honey Rag," and "Razzle Dazzle"--are also obvious highlights filled with vitality. Unfortunately, synthesized music and unaffected vocals mar a few tracks; "Bye Bye Blackbird," for example, sounds empty and dated without the visual cues. Luckily, "Sing! Sing! Sing!" from Dancin' closes out the disc with a brassy and swinging jazz sound--which is exactly how Fosse would probably want to be remembered. --Jason Verlinde  more

Jazz at its best

This jazz dance music keeps my spirits up and my toes tapping. I was delighted to introduce my 15 year old granddaughter to this Fosse music. She loves it.

A great musical!

I loved this recording. It's one of the finest I've heard in a long time for a B'way show. The Crunchy Granola Suite is electrifying. This show reminded me of DANCING which I saw some time ago in New York.

Where's Fosse?

On stage FOSSE was overlong but at least enjoyable to see some of his best dance sequences recreated. The show was a fine showcase for some of Broadway's best dancers, and some of the numbers generated real excitement, BUT....we learned...
