The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas

This is a great CD. I bought it because the play with Ann-Margret is coming to Seattle and I had to sample it first. It includes all the songs and even a new one. The movie only had 7 of the songs from the play in it. I have the original 1978 cast recording on vinyl and I was happy to be able to have them on CD now. One of my favorite songs on this CD is "24 Hours of Lovin." Avery does a fantastic job with it. She gives it some soul. And "The Aggie Song" is pretty hillarious. Now even though Ann-Margret doesn't have all that of a singing voice, I still think she does her songs justice. And it was nice to hear the entire cast singing "Hard Candy Chritmas." So, I love this Cd and you should click on "Buy It" now!!!!!

The record is exactly as described. In great condition for the age. The box it was packed in protected it and the record arrived safely. I would definitely buy from this company again.

Dolly is my heroine need to say nothing more

Absolutely love this record. Delivery was quick and nothing wrong with it.

Ann Margret is such a great artist and this cd shows it. The great price and great packaging made for a pleasant purchase. Will buy other items from this seller, knowing the attention paid to detail. Very satisfied.

Shipped fast and is a great album!

THE BEST LITTLE WHOREHOUSE IN TEXAS is always a delight, and in this new cast album of the recent national touring production starring Ann-Margret, it's even better than ever.Ann-Margret takes on the role of the Chicken Ranch owner Miss Mona with aplomb, offering up a lively performance. She sings lovely renditions of "Girl, You're a Woman", "A Lil' Ole Bitty Pissant Country Place", and a brand-new song written especially for this production, "A Friend to Me".Gary Sandy does well by the character of Mona's old flame Ed Earl Dodd, with fine support from Rob Donohoe as Melvin P. Thorpe and Hal Davis as Edsel Mackay.Avery Sommers adds a soulful voice to the character of the sassy bordello maid Jewel, and offers up a show-stopping "Twenty-Four Hours of Lovin'". Roxie Lucas plays the role of the thankless Doatsy Mae, and sings her self-titled number quite affectingly.Terri Dixon and Jen Celene Little do well by the featured roles of Angel and Shy, with the Chicken Ranch girls offering up a superb rendition of the heartbreakingly-lovely "Hard Candy Christmas".All-in-all, if you love this delightful musical, you'll adore this brand-new cast album!

Ann Margret`s singing voice is quite different from what you`d expect if you heard the previous cast album; however, she purrs her way through them while infusing a great deal of charm and personality to her renditions. Her numbers are not musically beautiful, yet they manage to be touching, sexy, rawnchy and pleasing. You can feel her elgant, strong, glamorous presence which, incidentally, are the character requirements for Miss Mona. The musical arrangements are superb, the energetic entr' acte is a welcome addition to the already familiar musical program. The ensemble is superband Watchdog, the Governor and Jewel all stand out in their solo numbers.The sad note is, the "Doatsy Mae" number does no justice to the original. Although acceptably sung, it fails to covey the furstration, hope and dreams of the character. Overall, this CD is surely worth the price: with its good vocals, wonderful score and general sense of innocent mischief, you'll have a great time listening to this all-out for fun musical.
