City of Angels (1990 Original Broadway Cast) [Cast Recording]
Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Cy Coleman and David Zippel's City of Angels is a seductive depiction of 1940s Los Angeles, capturing swinging jazz, torchy ballads, witty lyrics, and even a Manhattan Transfer-like Greek chorus (arranged by ManTran guru Yaron Gershovsky). James Naughton and Gregg Edelman star as Stone and Stine, respectively a tough Raymond Chandleresque PI and the writer who dreams up his adventures. Randy Graff plays Stone's long-suffering secretary and Dee Hoty the requisite femme fatale. Loads of atmosphere and tasty songs such as "What You Don't Know About Women," "With Every Breath I Take," "You're Nothing Without Me," and "You Can Always Count on Me" make City of Angels a modern classic. It won 1990 Tony Awards for Best Musical, Leading Actor (Naughton), Featured Actress (Graff), Best Book (Larry Gelbart), and Best Original Score. --David Horiuchi

This soundtrack to City of Angels has a mighty tall order to fill. The film is a remake of Wim Wenders' Wings of Desire, and the German director is known for his effective use of music. But where Wenders can call on his friends such as R.E.M. and Elvis Costello to contribute songs, City of Angels feels more like a marketing device. No less than half the selections are by Warner Bros. artists, including some new music by Alanis Morissette, her first since Jagged Little Pill. That song, "Uninvited," is the album's highlight, a restrained modal ballad in the mode of Zeppelin's "Kashmir." The rest alternates between other female stars such as Paula Cole and Sarah McLachlan and bluesy selections from Hendrix, John Lee Hooker, and Eric Clapton. --Steven Mirkin

City of Angels Soundtrack.......2006-06-25
Items were shipped within two days, and I loved the music from the movie.
An average soundtrack resting on the shoulders of one masterpiece..........2006-04-27
Now don't be so quick to hate based on my title here...I do love this soundtrack, but what I mean is that you have one BRILLIANT track and then an album of good tracks...I think the major problem was placing this BRILLIANT track in second place, for placing it on the outset of the album only sets you up for dissapointment. Yes, this track is 'Uninvited' by Alanis Morissette, which is haunting, bewitching and mezmerizing to say the least. Alanis, a wonderfully talented singer at that, puts together her finest piece of music ever and manages to real you in from the first word to the last, and that musical arangment, I mean come on...it's beautiful, eerie and enchanting all at the same time, and when it all breaks down towards the end after she utters the word "slide" and the violins get violent almost it's just one of my favorite pieces of music let alone the vocal masterclass that it is. So there you have it, the biggest reason to purchase this album...and it's a great reason, but the fact that it's the only reason stands to reitterate my opening comment. I mean, there are other good or even great songs like 'Iris' which was radio ready almost as soon as it was recorded, and the song itself is a beautiful and inspired song, one of the Goo Goo Dolls best efforts, and Sarah McLachlan, who possesses one of the most angelic voices ever, delivers a solid track 'Angel' and even Paula Cole delivers with 'Feelin Love' and The Jimi Hendrix instrumental 'Red House' but none of these tracks even come close to touching the power in 'Uninvited'. Some of the songs are good but nothing spectacular, much like the opener 'If God Will Send His Angels' by the glorious U2 and I guess maybe I expect too much but this song just left me saying "Is this for real?" It could have, no let me rephrase that, SHOULD have been much better. Eric Clapton, a genious that he is, delivers one of the most annoying tracks here, I think mainly because it drags on for over 7 minutes! And then there are tracks that hurt to listen to, like Peter Gabriel's 'I Grieve' which is ear-splitting terrible. At least Gabriel Yared's score is just beautiful. So, the album is not a complete let down, but it just had huge shoes to fill beings that one of the greatest songs of all time had graced the track listing...Now they could have followed in Titanics footsteps and released a score only with Alanis adding her masterpiece, and then maybe this would have been a 5 star rating, but the weight of the remaining tracks brought Alanis's beauty down just enough. (By the way, I'm still pretty P.O.'ed that 'Uninvited' did not take home the oscar for best original song...it deserved it hands down!)
Excellent all around.......2006-03-17
I bought this soundtrack after I saw the movie back in 98. I fell in love with every song on it and played it often. When I was stressed out, I would play one of Gabriel Yared's and let the stress drain out of my fingers. About a year ago, I had many of my favorite cd's stolen from the car and this was one of them. It killed me not to have it. I'm buying it again because I truely miss it.
Eclectic Selection .......2006-03-11
Contains an eclectic selection ranging from blues to anthems. Very pleasant listening for most music lovers.
Heavenly.......2005-10-31
this CD is one of my top 5 favorite CDs. as far as soundtracks go - this one and one other are my favs. (the other? you want to know? it's Boys on the Side) it's not that I even like the movie - cause I don't. just that the soundtrack is soooooooo good!
my dear husband, Norman, and I have had great sex to this CD more times than I can count. and I fall asleep to it several times a month. I keep it next to my bed.
the songs -
If God Will Send His Angels - very soft, sweet, sultry, kind.
Uninvited - Alanis Morissette, haunting, sultry, memorable.
Mama, You Got A Daughter - love it! I want a whole CD with just this guy! John Lee Hooker - New Orleans kinda blues - so good. Angel - sweet, Sarah McLachlan. yummy good.
Iris - beyond beautiful. Goo Goo Dolls.
the rest, all good. Jimmi, U2, what a cast! as a compilation - it is very very good.
buy it from a nice seller on Amazon, I did!

Customer Reviews:
Fun Show, Average Score.......2007-02-21
Fun show, ingenuos concept, so-so score, with one exception. The ballad With Every Breath I Take is brilliant. One of Coleman's best pieces.
Cleverness personified.......2006-10-16
A duet between an author and the character he created, each claiming "you're nothing without me," is just one example of how sharp, witty and clever show is, with an unusual score, jazzy and bluesy and very 1940s, and some of the best lyrics I know.
Fantastic Jazz Musical That's FUN!!!.......2006-04-14
City of Angels is an incredibly fun, classy, and jazzy musical that delivers. Stellar vocal performances are provided by the entire cast, particularly the female end. The fact that Randy Graff was the only female from this cast nominated at the Tony Awards that year floors me. Kay McClelland and Rachel York deserved nods for their powerful solos, With Every Breath I Take and Lost Found, alone. These two songs are also the type of sultry, jazz solos that one would expect in the 40's, which is why the show works. The music is completely period with when the show takes place, and that's why I love it. The best tracks are:
3) What You Don't Know About Women
6) With Every Breath I Take (destined to be a classic)
9) Lost and Found (wonderful solo)
10) All You Have To Do Is Wait (FUN! FUN! FUN SONG!!! Hilarious as well)
11) You're Nothing Without Me
13) You Can Always Count On Me (Randy Graff's Tony!)
Great Jazz-Oriented Score.......2005-06-25
1990 Tony winner for Best Musical, "City Of Angels" contains a great score, filled with jazz-oriented melodies & torch songs. Not all the songs are terrific, but most of the score lends itself to repeat listenings. Best tracks include:
Double Talk
What You Don't Know About Women
With Every Breath I Take [beautiful song!]
Lost And Found
You're Nothing Without Me [the show's hit]
You Can Always Count On Me
Funny
Great cast ... great buy!
I love it!.......2005-02-22
This is one of my favorite soundtracks ever! Since I'm going to be working on music for the show, I'm happy that this is the case. It has been in my CD player for a few weeks now, and there's enough variety for it not to get old. But having read through the script makes the lyrics infinitely wittier. Musicals are supposed to rely partially on the lyrics and partially on the script. This show does that perfectly. Without the script, the lyrics are (apparently) lacking. But without the lyrics, the script is missing something. When you put the two pieces together, however, it's really easy to see why this show won a Tony.

Customer Reviews:
Fabulous for any Broadway-lover.......2007-01-30
Packs into 5 CD's a sampling of Broadway tunes from the 20's thru (almost) today, mostly from original cast recordings. Includes not just well-known hits, but also some lesser-known gems. Sound quality is first rate, booklet is informative too. Have given this as a gift to several friends with rave reviews.
Top Shelf.......2007-01-04
This is THE definitive collection of Broadway hits. I have other collections, and none of them measure up. A great deal of care was obviously taken in compiling and presenting this box set. It covers a lot of ground, starting with some long-forgotten but still very enjoyable hits from the days of yore, and finishing with present-day favorites. To the best of my knowledge, the recordings are by those who made them famous. You won't be disappointed.
TERRIFIC CD'S.......2006-03-23
THESE BROADWAY MUSICALS CD'S ARE A BROADWAY LOVERS DREAM. WITH EACH SONG, MEMORIES COME FLOODING BACK. BOTH THE FAMILIAR AND THE FORGOTTEN SONGS ARE A TRUE LISTENING PLEASURE. IF YOU LIKE BROADWAY, YOU'LL LOVE THIS SET.
Great Collection of Broadways greatest Songs .......2005-06-14
This Collection was perfectly made it has almost all the most famous Broadway songs on this 5 cd set. The Music is great and has Broadways greatest treasures like "Memory""People""With One Look""Give my regards Too Broadway" just to name a few of this numerous cd set with over 100 songs. This is a great buy if you like musicals or The music of Broadway
Great Compilation!.......2005-01-17
If you are a fan of the Broadway Musicals, this is a collection that you should purchase. Since I got the 5 disc set I've enjoyed listening to it. The majority of the songs are done by the original singers. The collection is priceless considering that you will have over 100 songs from popular musicals since the beginning of Broadway

Album Description
Top of the British Classical Charts for 10 Weeks! Billboard Top Ten Classical Recording - December 2002! This album gathers together most of the carols I have composed over the years, plus a sprinkling of my arrangements of traditional carols, grouped to form a program which narrates, reflects upon, and celebrates the Christmas story. I have always enjoyed carols ever since I first sang them as a member of my school choir, and it was not long before I began to write carols of my own-in fact my first two published compositions were the Nativity Carol and the Shepherd's Pipe Carol. For any musician involved in choral music, Christmas is an especially joyous time, and I am indeed happy that it has played a part in my musical life for so many years- JOHN RUTTER
Customer Reviews:
Rutter Christmas Album.......2007-05-14
Great selection of music, and well presented. This is however older recordings that do not match the quality of Rutter's latest recordings such as the Te Deum or the Gloria.
Unique and Beautiful!.......2007-03-09
John Rutter, and his beautiful music, is such a gift to the world. This unique Christmas CD is magnificent! Especially touching are two of Rutter's original carols, "Christmas Lullaby" and the joyful "Angels' Carol." The musical selections speak to the soul, helping the listener connect to emotions of joy, peace, faith, hope, and love. This is a worthy addition to your collection of Christmas CDs.
Johh Rutter Chirstmas Album.......2007-02-19
If I were to choose only one Christmas album to ever own, this would be the one. John Rutter is an exceptional composer of religious music, with unusual harmonies. The music is difficult to sing, and because this is his own choir and he is directing it, the performance is flawless. Gives you goosebumps.
Liked it enough to go through a lot of trouble to give it a review........2007-02-07
Great music by John Rutter: Great performance!
John Rutter and Cambridge Singers.......2007-01-18
This is quintessential English cathedral music; beautifully sung. Reminds one of the English Christmas -- warm and serene -- that we've only experienced in our dreams!

not as good.......2007-05-15
Not even close to being as good as the first "Crow"'s soundtrack. Too repeatitive to my ears.
Not nearly as good as the first but it's not without some great tracks..........2006-09-23
Straight to the point. This album is not nearly as good as the first. But Hole, Rob Zombie, Filter, Pj Harvey, Bush (surprisingly amazing with the Joy Division cover... cause apparently this franchise really digs those), and Iggy Pop all have great songs so it certainly isn't a waste of money. But many of the other songs(and artists) have not withstood the test of time. I would say go grab some of the songs off of this, and a couple of the songs of the abysmal follow up (The Crow 3: A Movie No One Has Seen) and call it a day.
Beautifully Gloomy Compilation.......2005-10-16
The Crow: City of Angels soundtrack is an absolutely beautiful, yet utterly gloomy and dark compilation from the best of the mid 90's alt-rock, and hip-hop, scene.
The album features a handful of covers (including Hole's awesome cover of Fleetwood Mac's "Gold Dust Woman" and Bush's adequately dark Joydivision track, "In A Lonely Place"), some b-sides from the best of the rap metal scene (Korn's "Sean Olson" and the ripping Deftones track "Teething") and some of the absolute BEST low-key collaborations of the decade (rounded out by 4 Non-Blondes Linda Perry & Jefferson Airplane's Grace Slick on "Knock Me Out" and my personal favourite track on the disc, Tricky and The Gravediggaz trading some creepy and unnerving verses on the ultra-ambient "Tonite is A Special Nite"). Other alt-rock favourites such as Filter, Toadies and the underrated NY Loose appear also, offering some rare tracks that really bring a smooth and solid cohesiveness to the package.
The album faithfully and effectively carries on the dark and melancholy mood inspired by the films themselves, and there is never really a dull moment on the disc. A teriffic soundtrack album, worthy of picking up for any fans of dark and gloomy rock, harsh alternative or for fans of the movie(s) themselves. Other mentionables include PJ Harvey's "Naked Cousin" and Iggy Pop's energetic live performance of "I Wanna Be Your Dog". Do not pass this one over.
Filter, Bush, the Toadies....Remember these bands?.......2005-07-13
I've been carrying around a battle-scarred copy of this CD for years. While I don't revisit the alt-rock hits at the beginning, I have discovered a jewel near the end of the disc - Iggy Pop's live version of "I Wanna Be Your Dog". It is an absolutely blistering track. I don't know how many people out there are Stooges fans, but this version beats the original on their first album, hands down. Iggy manages to pack more power and sleaze into 3 minutes than any of these other bands can put on an album.
One of the best!!!.......2004-07-23
I HAD to give this CD 5 stars since it is one of the VERY FEW cd's I've bought over the past decade where I like every song (one of four actually, the others being AC/DC - Live, Weird Al - Bad Hair Day and Gravity Kills self titled album). I bought it when it first came out and still listen to it today. The songs blend well together and carry the emotion of The Crow legacy with them. I rate this album the best in the series.

Customer Reviews:
The picture.......2006-12-11
I haven't purchased the CD but the picture of the inside of a church on the cover is not of a British church, like one would assume since it says its a recording of British choirs. This picture is of Notre Dame Basilica in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Just thought i'd let you know. I'll be honest; I'm one to judge things by it's cover and if the company took such care to choose a 'British' church for their British choir CD, I'm willing to bet the music is equally well selected... I'm being sarcastic. But I gave the product 5 stars because I didn't want to hurt its ratings just because i'm cynical. But check out the church if you're ever in Montreal, it's truly beautiful... here I'm not being sarcastic.

long shadows.......2003-03-27
yes, every one is writing about the "fast" songs, which i have no problem with, but they're forgetting about the darkest song in the album-"Long Shadows"- this song is awsome, mad lirics, slow moody beats, and an awsome intro-
along with "Neon Ray", and "Metropol" This cd is one of the best because of its variety-It will always make my speakers drown in style and sound.
Deep Bass... Nice Smooth Rhythm and Beats........2000-08-20
I hate to say this (mainly because that's what everyone else's saying), but the first song I heard by Lunatic Calm was "Leave you Far Behind", from The Matrix. I'd have to say that the energetic pulse and vocals in this song really made me want to learn more about Lunatic Calm, so I came here (Amazon), and listened to the samples. I really liked the samples, and thought they sounded very similar to Fluke's material (another great band), so I decided to buy the album.
Lunatic Calm isn't all energetic pulses, hard bass, and driving melodies though... "Leave you far Behind" is probably the hardest, and fastest track on the cd. Most of the cd is slow, smooth vibes. Everything here is similar to a lot of the material on Fluke's cd, Risotto. So, if you've happened to have heard (and liked) that cd, this is probably for you. Most of the songs on this cd are fairly long, and I guess some people might find them a bit boring. They're definitely not dance tracks, because they're slow, and somewhat mellow, but not by any means ambient, or minimal.
Every song on this cd has a nice, deep bassline that really has a nice rhythm. A few of the songs contain some voice samples, and dreamy, subtle vocals. They fit in very well with the song, and are part of what makes this album so ingenius. The bottom line is, this cd is for anyone who likes breakbeat, trance, ambient, dnb, or just smooth, somewhat layed-back beats. I was very, very happy when I got this cd, and I'm sure it'll stay one of my favorite Techno CD's for a while.
Excellent!.......2000-07-04
I think this is a /great/ album. It takes a little while to grow on you, hence the 4 star rating. Leave You Far Behind is probably the most energetic track on there, so don't buy it expecting rave music. A lot of it is trancy breakbeat stuff. Which of course, is good :)
My favorite tracks: Roll the Dice, Neon Ray, Leave You Far Behind.
be sure to check out their site (lunatic-calm.co.uk), and try their MP3 samples. if you like what's on there, you'll probably like the album too.
There's more to 'Leave'ing.......2000-04-23
When I lost all of my CDs a couple of weeks ago, this was the first one I rebought. The reason: Lunatic Calm is awesome hard core techno. The popular track "Leave You Far Behind" is the kind of adrenaline-pumping song that makes you think you can take Jesse Ventura hand-to-hand. But this surely is not the only reason I am repurchasing Lunatic Calm. Other reviews leave out the a**-kicking tracks "The Sound" and "It Evolves on its Own," in which the mere method that the artists brings you into the beat is, well, really cool. Be advised however, that not all the tracks are as fast as the one on Matrix, but this does not detract from the appeal of the album. I give it 4.5.
Sick! : ).......2000-03-14
Im mostly into rock and punk but when i heard leave you far behind i ran to get it. The CD Kicks!

Customer Reviews:
Can I give it more than 5 stars? Sublime........2006-12-01
It's a treat to play year after year December after December. I love the order of the songs, the lavish orchestral acompaniment, and the boy choir supporting Jessye Norman's astonishing voice. A beautifully produced CD, by far my favorite Christmas album.
It will become part of your Xmas.......2005-12-04
It's a reference. Start your Christmas season with this CD.
Jessye is perfect as always.
The harmonization is another pearl in this work. The balance between her voice and the boy's choir completes the ambience.
Pay special attention to "See Amid the Winter's Snow"
Shockingly beautiful..........2005-12-04
This album is shockingly beautiful. Norman's voice is amazing. The first track alone brings tears to my eyes. This is one of my favourite Christmas albums of all time. If you like Jeysse Norman and you like beautiful, sacred Christmas music, then you should also check out Jeysse Norman At Notra Dame.
It doesn't get any better than this........2005-08-22
This is one of the most perfectly beautiful recordings of any kind in existence. The pure glory of Jessye's voice is enhanced by the moving, glowing arrangements and thrilling accompanying performances. You will not find a better Christmas album, this is a true work of love and art in the spiritual realm. While it fills your ears with resplendant sound it fills your heart with love and hope.
