A Special Place: Songs from the Heart [Cast Recording]

Editorial Reviews
Jason Fine, critic Rolling Stone Magazine
"Sweet - but never saccharine - melodies and arrangements, and lyrics that are witty and fun. Some wonderful vocalists: I particularly enjoyed Rebecca Luker's 'Be My Valentine' and Lillias White's 'A Little Love.'

Michael Feingold, The Village Voice
"The roster of known quantities, ranging from Lillias White and KT Sullivan to Heather MacRae and soap star Brian Lane Green, is as miscellaneous as Ost's songs, which jump from country rock to old-style show tunes to cabaret style comic patter numbers. He holds his own well in all these and other genres; someone should probably hire him to write a Broadway show."

Best Kept Secret.......2005-02-21

Personal favorites are "In Between The Lines" by Alice Ripley and "Count to Ten" by Brian Green...unfortunately not the Brian Green from 90210. Some of the songs are less than memorable, but on a whole its a must have for Alice Ripley/musical theater buffs.

Great collection of broadway style songs.......2000-11-10

Great collection of broadway style songs. VERY talented vocalists in this collection! One of the finest I've heard.

A Very Special Place.......1999-11-23

"A Special Place: Songs from the Heart", is indeed a very special CD. The songs and arrangements are unique, clever and lovely, and the performances are superb. Highly recommended listening.

A Special Place glows with contemporary Broadway sound........1999-03-16

Any one looking for a cutting edge yet still good old fashioned Broadway musical should listen to this CD; any producer wishing to give Broadway the musical that it needs should look to Mr. Ost for the score.

Delightful--GO GO GO GO BOB OST.......1999-03-15

Any album with KT Sullivan has to be entertaining and this fine collection is certainly that. Bob Ost's music runs the gamut of musical styles and will delight every musical theatre fanatic from here to Tokyo.
