I saw this play in Nashville TN in June and knew I wanted to get the musical score. I am delighted with the original cast recording. The one thing I would have changed about the recording is on a few songs the music overpowers the singing. I believe this is because the CD was done live during a performance, not is a sound studio. Other than this minor "flaw" I love the CD because it reminds me of the energy and flow of the play. I see the actions as I hear the music. Plus now I can sing along with the songs which I could only "think along" with during the play. I highly recommend this CD if you want to revisit your memories from watching the play. I would give this as a gift to someone I knew saw the play. If you didn't see the play they are still good songs, I just think those who saw the play will enjoy the CD better.Read full review
I grew up with the music of ABBA but it wasn't until I saw a live production of Mamma Mia, that I fell in love with this CD. The music is up beat, toe tapping and just plain fun. Every time I play this, I visualize the fun and the excitement of this feel good musical. I actually bought this for a friend that has never seen Mamma Mia, but she and I have tickets to see the stage version in 2009. In the mean time, I thoroughly enjoy cranking up the volume on the CD player and not being able to sit still, (even while I'm driving)for the next hour.
The CD arrived well-packed and earlier than advertised. Since I have seen the musical version on stage, I was familiar with the songs and story line and the songs. I was really only interested in four of the songs.
