My Fair Lady (Original 1956 Broadway Cast) [Bonus Tracks Version]

I love it all!!!! Julie Andrews is absolutely amazing and so is the whole cast.

I feel like I should correct one point I keep seeing in these reviews. When Julie was in My Fair Lady in Broadway, she wasn't 15-16. She was actually 21. And I adore this album, though Julie, Rex, and Stanley haven't completely found the characters yet like they have in the London album. (I always say, if you wanna know how the songs are sung, listen to the Broadway album. If you wanna hear the characters, go to London. [And saying Rex is better here because he songs more is a bit idiotic. Singing = Emotion in musicals, and Higgins is an emotionless character.])

Too angelic not human.

julie andrews did not play as eliza! it is a good soundtrack

I used to play this record on my fisher price record player and dance around my bedroom when I was little! Every little girl should get the same chance! I still love it as a 35-year old!

I think she was 21 when this was recorded because she was 19 when she 1st starred on Broadway in The Boy Friend ((: I'm so glad they recorded the original cast ! Julie Andrews... you're truly MAGNIFICENT!! 

Can you believe that Julie was only 15 when she sang this on broadway!? Love Julie!!!

I'm a young theater fan. I haven't explored it very deeply yet. What I have done is bought Stephen Soundhiem's lyric book. He noted that My Fair Lady was the most enjoyable musical he ever saw. I hadn't looked into My Fair Lady, but when I did, I saw why. The score, the lyrics, the singers, it's all brilliant. Highly recommended.

This is the first thing I bought for my iPod, and I absolutely adore it. I can somehow never get "I COuld Have Danced All Night" out of my head. It and all the other songs are catchy and witty. Julie Andrews, my favorite singer, makes such a beautiful performance, and her cockney accent is much better than Marni Nixon's in the movie. Rex Harrison does a much better job in the play than in the movie. Both he and Stanley Holloway sing more. Although the orchestrations are better in the movie, the sound quality is better here and the leads are much stronger. I HIGHLY recommend this for any fan of musicals, Julie Andrews, or oldies.

well there is nothing much I could say to convince you to get it if your mind is made up not to and you don't like these sort of things....HOwever it is VERY good. I was delighted to hear Julie and know she was the original...just a bit of trivia...did you know that Audrey Hepburn even told Julie Andrews she should have got the role? By the way...only 16.
