London Revival CastLondon Revival Cast. I'm not really sure if this is actually a London revival cast, but that's what I'm going to call it. :-) This recording was my first exposure to the show, and I really, really enjoy it. There is enough of the dialogue, along with the music, to completely follow what's going on, and the cast is really great. I especially like Malcolm Sinclair, Steven Pacey and Lucy Tregear. But everyone is really good. If you don't know anything about the show, I'd recommend this recording as a great introduction.

Original Broadway CastOriginal Broadway Cast. I listened to this recording for the first time in the car the day after I saw the show, and it is a great memory of that performance. The Broadway cast is excellent as well, particularly John Scherer, Martin Jarvis and Don Stephenson. There are several changes in lyrics and a few musical differences that will take me a bit of getting used to, but don't really bother me - I quite like "Wooster Will Entertain You", though I'm also a fan of "The Code of the Woosters". However, the only reason I'd pick the 1996 recording over this one, is because it doesn't have the connecting dialogue to give you the full feel of the story. But once you know the show, this is a great addition to your collection.
