Reviewer Suggests Taking JB CD on Your Beach Trip!

June 30th, 2006

Star-Ledger staff writer Peter Filichia suggests taking Broadway along for those planning a holiday weekend at the Shore. Here’s what he said about the Jersey Boys’ Original Cast Recording:

Jersey Boys: (Rhino): The story of the Four Seasons becomes an album for all seasons. Of course, a “Four Seasons Greatest Hits” album delivers much of the same material — but how impressive to hear how well Daniel Reichard, Christian Hoff, J. Robert Spencer and John Lloyd Young (as Frankie Valli) ape their sound. There’s some added nostalgia from a girl group doing “My Boyfriend’s Back” and the chestnut “I Can’t Give You Anything but Love.” Best iPod Bet: “Can’t Take My Eyes Off of You” explains why audiences often give Young a standing ovation during the number.

  1. We had the Jersey Boys soundtrack blasting at our beach club during the July 4th fireworks at Point Lookout, Long Island. All the kids were dancing and the older crowd just loved it!!!
