Music reviews of Out Of This World (1995 New York Revival Cast)
Music Review: Another Fantastic Porter Score
Rating: 5 Stars
I don't know that this is one of Porter's greatest, but it's certainly great enough, and this recording does it full justice. The cast is excellent. The orchestration matches the original. Comic numbers predominate (Cherry Pies Ought to Be You, I Got Beauty, Climb up the Mountain, I Jupiter, Nobody's Chasing Me, What Do You Think About Men, Where Oh Where, and They Couldn't Compare to You) and they are generally as sly and witty as only Porter could be. The ballads (No Lover, I Am Loved, You Don't Remind Me, Hark to the Song of the Night) are lovely. None is quite as gorgeous as So In Love from Kiss Me Kate, but then nothing else is either. It's great to hear From This Moment On (cut from the show before opening and ironically the only number in the score that became a hit) in its original musical context, though even with as good a job as Gregg Edelman and Marin Mazzie do, you'll understand why the verse is almost never sung.
I would say this is the equal of the original cast album. The voices are just about as strong, though there's a bit of an air of everybody having a good time as themselves rather than being the characters. What this album does do is give us some musical interludes that they couldn't fit on the original cast, almost all of them worthwhile. You Don't Remind Me and From This Moment on are heard for the first time in their proper place in the score. Jupiter Is Coming Down is a brief but cute ditty. The Ballet of the Long Night is wonderful. My favorite previously unheard bit is the orchestral riff on Climb Up the Mountain that comes after the singers finish. It's a marvelous jazzy swing on the number. I would like to know if they did this in the original too, or if this was just the Coffee Club Orchestra having a good time. Either way it's a rousing affair.
One of these days, before it goes out of print again, I'll probably spring for the CD of the original cast, which I only have on vinyl. That too is an excellent recording, only the second Porter score to get a (nearly) full recording, and Columbia also did an excellent job. Encores did wonderful work here, and I am grateful for it. That said, I'm not entirely sure that Out of This World needed a new complete recording - not when Jubilee is still out there waiting for someone to do a definitive complete album.
