Mamma Mia! The Musical Based on the Songs of ABBA: A Decca Broadway Original Cast Recording (1999 London Cast)

Put together by Abbas own Benny Andersson and Bjrn Ulvaeus, Mamma Mia! manages to cram over 20 of the Swedish supergroups songs into a threadbare plot. It goes a little like this: Young Sophie is getting married and shes trying to identify which of three men is her father. Thats about it. Wisely, the musical doesnt mess around with the songs, save for the insertion of some dialogue or for having some of them performed by a man (it works amazingly well). Abba fans will jump on this import of the London production, but traditional fans of musical theater should consider it as well. After all, Andersson and Ulvaeuss songs have always felt as if they were more than isolated pop gems and actually belonged to a longer narrative. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

Two years ago I had the opportunity to attend Mamma Mia on Broadway in NYC with a couple of friends. It was great! Immediately after, we went to a music store and my friend purchased the CD. Driving home from Minneapolis for 4 hours, we put in the CD and sang our heart out. The music is wonderful, the movie is great! I soon purchased my own copy and have all the songs memorized. At our memorial day program this past spring, our friend sang "Thank You for the Music" dedicated to all the fallen comrades and friends and family that had recently passed on. It was very touching. Yes, I love it!

I absolutely love this CD and have played it many times. I thoroughly enjoyed the music. I also have the soundtrack from the movie, but this CD is much better. This one also includes "Thank you for the music" as a separate piece. And that is my favorite from the whole play.

That particular song was just sung during the credits in the movie and its not even listed on the play list, so you really cant access it separately. Its just part of the last song, "I have a dream" on the movie CD. And there is a very long pause before you even get to it on the movie version. You could miss it if you didnt know it was there.
It was worth buying the Broadway sound track for that song alone.

Rented the movie "Mama Mia" before purchasing. I am glad I did. Very disappointed as ABBA is one of my favorite groups and was looking forward to adding this to my collection. I could only take the first 10-15 minutes. Gratuitous foul language and over the top performance by the actors soured this for me. I would expect the exaggerated gestures, facial expressions, and volume at a live performance where the audience is far from the actors. But in a movie where everyone is 5-10 feet fron the tv set it seemed odd and out of place. Maybe if I would have watched a little longer things would have improved, however, by then I was totally turned off.
Love it!!!

If youve only seen the movie version of Mamma Mia, youre in for a treat, as this recording features 24 songs (much more than was featured in the film) all sung beautifully by the 1999 London cast.
