Editorial Reviews
Review
“Lynch, author of Broadway on Record and Movie Musicals on Record completes his three-volume guide to recordings from Die Fledermaus (1974) to Goya (1988). Lynch retains his format, alphabetically listing by title 657 shows and 6,500 songs. Each entry includes the recordings, first performance date, original record label, composer and lyricist, cast, songs, and notes. The volume closes with separate television, studio cast, and movie musical chronologies and performer and technical crew indexes. Admittedly comprehensive rather than complete, this work still provides more data per entry than Jack Raymond's Show Music on Record or Steve Harris's Film, Television. and Stage Music on Phonograph Records. Taken together as a set Lynch's trilogy will serve as the basic directory of the recorded musical for years to come. Recommanded for all libraries that emphasize the performing arts.”–
