This disc has 19 of the finest, performed by the likes of Debbie Gravitte, Biff McGuire, Dinah Shore, Russ Brown, Rebecca Lurker, Robert Morse, John Cullum, Anthony Rapp, Glenn Close, Bernadette Peters, Colm Wilkinson and Donnie Kerr. This may not be definitive -- a single-disc comp of showtunes couldn't hope to be -- but it's a wonderful sampler of Broadway favorites, concentrating on '90s songs. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
