Watched online, good print.

9 songs in the Soundtracks; all Music by Alan Menken, Lyrics by Stephen Schwartz.

Good strong heroine. Weird near-instant understanding of language. Story good enough to hold my attention. 

Fun to hear BC, but MG (b. '56) was less welcome (but he wasn't recognizable all the time.) Didn't really recognize LH or CB; I don't read the cast list beforehand.

I'd really like to hear a c.track, but not sure it's worth $5+ to get the disc.
