 A Joyous Season November 5, 2005
10 out of 11 found this review helpful
Being a 4 Seasons fan from day one, I could not wait for the release of this CD, and I certainly was not disappointed! The Jersey Boys musical brings to life the story and music of four poor guys from New Jersey who became a rock and roll phenomena. You'll be immediately drawn into the past, and you'll love it. Listen to John Lloyd Young's beautiful falsetto countered by J. Robert Spencer's bass. All of the classics are there: Sherry, Big Girls Don't Cry, Rag Doll, and many more. The audio is crystal clear. Close your eyes and you'll believe you are actually at this hit Broadway musical. Don't miss getting this CD.
Jersey Boys - Best Musical on Broadway December 27, 2005

The story of The Four Seasons, one of the best rock and roll groups in the history of rock and roll. This CD gives you the story lines in addition to the musical performances, which will be helpful for those unable to get to Broadway to see the show. If you can see the show, I recommend seeing it first before listening to the CD, or else you'll know some of the background which will tell you some stuff you may not have known, or wanted to have known, prior to seeing the show. A fabulous performance by one and all.

Got to see the Broadway show week before opening and thought one of the most entertaining musicals I had seen.
This album gives new life to some of the pleasures of the show. John Loyd Young is great as Frankie and all 4 do a great job recreating the music of the Four Seasons.
Loved the show and now the album.
You will not be able to sit still...with this CD playing! June 8, 2006

Frankie Valli or John Lloyd Young...which is it? It is hard to tell, they are both so talented. You will not be sorry about buying this CD. It is just amazing...the music is the music we have all grown up with (even us young ones) and this cast of Jersey Boys is the one that will live on in infamy! I bet this CD will even one day be a collector's item.
If you have been to the Broadway Musical this CD is a must! If you haven't been to the Musical...SHAME ON YOU! Get out there and see it. The scenery is simple yet highly effective. The cast incredible feel like you are living their triumphs and their hard times with the characters. The music has you dancing in your seat, singing out loud and at times tearing up.
I swear to you the audience get so excited when these 4 guys start singing songs like "Sherry" you would think you were at an actual Frankie Valli concert! You will too when you hear this CD :)
I loved the music on this CD June 11, 2006

I really enjoyed listening to this cast recording of Jersey Boys. The first track is entitled Ces Soirees la. This is a very fun upbeat opening track. The Early Years medley track is also very good. I love John Lloyd Young's falsetto vocals on tracks like Sherry and Big Girls Don't Cry. He is perfectly cast as music legend Frankie Valli. Walk Like A Man and Rag Doll are two highlights on this CD too. I also enjoyed the track Oh What a Night. I think J. Robert Spencer provides excellent vocals on this track. He is perfectly cast as bass singer Nick Massi. Another highlight on this CD for me is the track My Eyes Adored You. I also enjoyed the song Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You. These songs are very romantic and sweet. I hope to have the opportunity to see Jersey Boys on Broadway someday.
