Featured review
What a wonderful surprise to discover this DVD. I could listen to John Raitt's voice forever. His voice and towering, elegant presence are as thrilling now as they were when I first saw this production on the west coast. The songs, in themselves are wonderful and brought to life by Raitt's magnetic voice, they make for chills upon chills. As always, Mary Martin is a joy. Her portrayal of Annie is spirited and convincing. This year, Bonnie Raitt, John's daughter, won a Grammy - one of many she has won. Sweet to know his fine talent shines through the next generation. It is difficult to overlook the aspects that certainly would not be tolerated today, But it'is well worth accepting this arose in a different b time. We can appreciate that we have moved ahead with some stereotypes and prejudices while not dismissing the pleasure of viewing this production.
