Review

Entertainment Weekly (7/10/98, p.77) - "...Alan Cumming's emcee is so lasciviously guttural, his phlegm seems to be in your throat, compared with Joel Grey's distantly sinister harlequin. But Natasha Richardson's modest Sally Bowles quite resembles originator Jill Haworth's, making Liza the anomaly. The new disc is splendid..." - Rating: A

Title Note

Principal cast: Natasha Richardson (Sally Bowles); Alan Cumming (The Emcee); Ron Rifkin (Herr Schultz); Marie Louise Wilson (Fraulein Schneider).

Recorded at Hit Factory Studio 1, New York, New York on April 13, 1998.

CABARET was nominated for a 1999 Grammy for Best Musical Show Album.

"Willkommen, Bienvenue, Welcome!" With those now-immortal words, the MC of CABARET draws his audience into Berlin on the eve of the 1930s. Beckoning us into the Kit Kat Club to forget our troubles, Alan Cumming sets the tone from the start of Sam Mendes' 1998 revival of the show. This is a CABARET with all its sleaze hanging out--in saying what the plot cannot, the decadent cabaret numbers reflect the characters' indecision and horror at the political events outside the club, which in the end ensnare or overwhelm each of them.

Mendes could hardly have asked for a more effective cast--Cumming captures the mood of each of his commentary numbers perfectly, from the introductory seaminess of "Willkommen" to his frightening "I Don't Care Much." In Natasha Richardson's "Maybe This Time," the tight spotlight cutting through the smoky air is practically audible. Both received Tony Awards for their performances onstage. The only real competition for this stunning cast recording is the original Broadway cast, reissued by Sony in 1998 with additional tracks from John Kander and Fred Ebb's demo records. The polished, chilling presentation of the revival makes the choice an easy one.
