A Chorus Line may be better known, but Dreamgirls was a towering achievement for director Michael Bennett. Loosely based on the Supremes' story, the 1982 musical told a typical show-biz tale of fame, backbiting, and survival. As is often the case for one-night only events, the cast in this concert version (recorded in New York on September 24, 2001) is led by an eye-popping assortment of Broadway powerhouses: Lillias White (The Life), Audra McDonald (Ragtime, Marie Christine), and Heather Headley (Ragtime). McDonald reveals a previously undisclosed comic streak, while Headley confirms her status as a rising star. Reprising the role of Effie Melody White (created by Jennifer Holliday), White belts the classic "And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going." But the beauty of Dreamgirls is that it's so packed with catchy, Motown-influenced R&B numbers that each lead can sink her teeth into some prime material and get a turn in the spotlight. This double-CD set really makes you wish you'd been there when the show was recorded: you can hear the crowd going berserk at times, and the temptation is strong to do the same thing in the comfort of your living room. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

1 out of 5 stars Dreamgirls 2001.......2007-06-27

This was the worst reproduction of Dreamgirls that I ever heard. I was so disappointed the CD went into the garbage. This is one CD that I would not sell to the public because I expect so much and get so little.

4 out of 5 stars Not the real "DREAM" experience.......2007-04-04


Forget about the film sountrack. Get this CD set. And it's far better than the original cast recording which goes lacking. More songs and more everything that makes a live performance just what it is. Live (compared to film where anything can be done to enhance a performance!) -- the energy, the excitement and the performances make this a rare treat for anyone wanting to share in the real DREAM experience.

Isn't a full Broadway revival long over due. But wait: I've heard rumors that a rvial may be "in the works. I certainly hope so. Maybe this time it will receive the Tony award it deserved in the first place.

5 out of 5 stars Absolutely brilliant!.......2007-01-28

There is atleast 5 new songs on this album that were not in the movie! These girls kill it I mean they are just amazing singers, and this all live! This is needed for any Dreamgirls fanatic like me! You are gonna love it! Enjoy! love live laugh :)

5 out of 5 stars Amazing!!!!!!.......2006-12-04

As a theatre lover, this recording is amazing. I actually prefer this recording to the OBC. Sheryl Lee Ralph is okay, but can't touch Audra's Deena. The first time I heard Ms. White's "And I Am Telling You..", goosbumps all over my body. The only weak cast member in my opinon is Heather Headly. Vocally, she just isn't there. Too much Aida, not enough Dreamgirls. But all in all, a great live recording of a great show.

5 out of 5 stars One Night Only .......2006-07-19

I was lucky enough to attend this One Night Only concert performance of Dreamgirls and it was a night I will never forget!! The cast was brilliant and the cd is as good if not better than the Broadway cast recording because it is the entire show not just the songs. Bravo to everyone involved !!!

5 out of 5 stars One of Jerry Goldsmith's Best.......2006-12-30

After watching Hoosiers on DVD a while ago, I was wondering if a copy of the soundtrack was available. Lo and behold, here it is! I think the Soundtrack to Hoosiers is one of the best, if not the best, that Jerry Goldsmith has ever done. All of the tracks are excellent, particularly the first and last. The way he repeats the same musical theme in all the tracks, yet keep them all interesting, is pure genius.

If there's one word to describe the Hoosiers soundtrack, it's this: uplifting. This music uplifts one as much as the movie does, and can be listened to over and over again. 5 out of 5. By the way, this soundtrack is now available on iTunes for $9.99.

5 out of 5 stars Great Film Score.......2005-10-24

If you are a fan of Jerry Goldsmith's film music, then you will want Best (Hoosiers) Shot in your film library.

5 out of 5 stars Great American Score.......2005-10-09

HOOSIRES is one of Jerry Goldsmith's best scores. I really like it. Outstanding and rousing it is, but why is this so hard to find?

5 out of 5 stars A Winner.......2004-10-12

It's no secret that Jerry Goldsmith's prodigious output in the 1980's was marred by slightly below par performances by the HSO Orchestra.
However, Best Shot is one example where the sheer quality of the composition shines through despite lackluster playing. This is Goldsmith at his best - memorable and spirited thematic material that never fails to capture the imagination. Bravo Jerry!!!
