Saw Jersey Boys on Broadway in December 2006 - the best show I've ever seen. I recently ordered the CD after a friend, who also saw the show, told me it included some of the dialogue. This soundtrack is INCREDIBLE. I don't know why I didn't buy it sooner. I've been playing it over and over again. Can't get enough of it. The cast is superb and the songs sound even better than the original. Great drummer too. I highly recommend it - especially to anyone who has seen the show or is planning to see it. There's talk of a Jersey Boys movie. Let's hope so - with the original cast. In the meantime, get the CD.
