Editorial Reviews

Andrew Lloyd Webber's epic Cats takes its characters from T.S. Eliot's book Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats. Though the book contains no narrative structure, Webber has created one, although what drew audiences to the theatre in droves was the charm of the feline characters, not the tale of what happens to them. The score is rather fetching but simple, with moments of elegance, as in during the now-standard "Memory." The longest-running musical of its time, Cats is at times overrated, but as a whole it retains the charm that attracted audiences. This version contains Elaine Paige's U.K. Top Ten recording of "Memory." ~ William Ruhlmann and Sarah Erlewine, All Music Guide All Music Guide

January 22, 2006: I am afraid that the people who put the song titles on the CDs and put them in what they think is called proper order made some horrific mistakes thus put me off of wanting to purchase the set to go along with the rest of my Cats collection. I must say it is a shear disapointment.
