Tootsie (Original Broadway Cast Recording) [2 LP]

The new comedy musical Tootsie, adapted from the 1982 film, began previews on Broadway March 29, following an acclaimed out-of-town tryout in Chicago last fall. Variety called Tony-winner David Yazbek's score "strikingly over-the-top: You know something's right when the music itself feels witty." Meanwhile, The Chicago Tribune commented, "The sound has a movie-score quality. many of his tempos are arrestingly up - so much so.that they keep amping the pleasures of the piece."
