Review

This collection of Bard-inspired Broadway tracks includes (three versions of) "Brush Up Your Shakespeare" by Jonathan Freeman, Harry Groener and Guy Haines, plus many others at least slightly concerned with the greatest English poet -- "Too Darn Hot," "Darn That Dream," "What Do I Know?" and "Sing for Your Supper." ~ Keith Farley, All Music Guide
