Does anyone own this?

I have only just now discovered the wonders of Dresscircle.

Apparently they have three Les Mis karaoke CD's, does anybody know if they're any good?

I also see lots of stuff that I would LOVE to buy... Shame that my budget doesn't really allow it.
They also have some sort of statue with the Thenardiers, quite drole.

Ooh, is it the 4-disc one? That one's usually running pretty expensive when it surfaces on eBay, and I've heard it's good... but I haven't ever attempted to afford it, so, I can't vouch for sure.

I have some "backing tracks" from the usual illegitimate sources, and they all sound like crappy MIDI versions. Who knows, maybe the CD ones are better.

I've got it.

It's fun singing along, but the backing tracks sound pretty tinny and fake. I would suggest getting other backing tracks if you can find them, since the only thing I like about owning it is that I don't have to ignore the other harmonies when I'm trying to sing along. Another positive is that it has a lot of the songs (though Confrontation is noticeably absent.)

The CDs with the recorded actors are awful as well. I listen to it occasionally, just for a laugh--it's really that bad. I've never heard a less enthusiastic Gavroche in my life.

So if you want backing tracks for fun, I'd say get it, but if you want it for recording, I think you'd have better luck finding another one or getting a piano recording.

Ah okay. Same Sad

Thank you Smile
