Gypsy (2008 Broadway Cast Album) [Vinyl]

The 2008 version stars Patti LuPone, superbly supported by Laura Benanti, Boyd Gaines and a luscious 36-piece orchestra. LuPone sinks her fangs into the role of the indomitable Mama Rose, and delivers the show's epic anthems ("Some People," "Everything's Coming Up Roses" and "Rose's Turn") with the right balance of manic energy and slightly cracked vulnerability.
