"COLOR PURPLE" ON COLIN HOLMES MAGIC OF THE MUSICALS 22ND MAY 2016.

THE COLOR PURPLE.... ANGEL RECORDS.

Tracks played....
Overture / Our prayer / Lily of the field / Shug Avery comin' to town / What about love /  Act 1 Finale. / The color purple / Any little thing / I'm here.

An emotional gosspilly jazzy musical. Not something you sit back and relax to, as it covers black
slavery and abuse and death. There are some moving tracks and exceptionally sung on this recording
reminding us that even in a recording studio  the performers know how to orally act.  Tragedy and
a little happiness on disc. ****
