Musicals reccomendation

Having listened to clips from many versions of the soundtracks to RENT and Les Miserables, I have a suggestion to anyone who wishes to get either of these. If you wish to get decent Les Miserables music, get the London version. RENT, get the original Broadway cast recording. Neither is perfect, but they are the best I have found. There are some really hideous performances of some really great songs out there people - always listen to clips before making the final purchase.
