Compilation album originally released in 1988, with the original recordings of the promotional singles from Lloyd Webber's most popular musicals at that time: The Phantom of the Opera, Evita, Cats, Requiem, Jesus Christ Superstar, Song and Dance, Starlight Express, Tell Me On a Sunday, and Variations. Artists: Sarah Brightman, Paul Nicholas, Elaine Paige, Steve Harley, Barbara Dickson, Michael Crawford, Marti Webb, Cliff Richard, Yvonne Elliman, Ray Shell, Julie Covington, Paul Miles Kingston, Murray Head, and Julian Lloyd Webber. Pressings of the album post-1992 replaced Ray Shell's original Starlight Express with Greg Ellis's New Starlight Express. This new edition of the album featured an updated cover sleeve with the word "Cats" removed from it's musical's logo (leaving only the eyes), in order to distinguish it from the original 1988 edition of the album. A flaw that was overlooked with the new release was the page in the sleeve insert with photos of the artists. It was unchanged, leaving Ray Shell there, and not including Greg Ellis. The album is now out of print and never was released digitally. The 1996 follow up album "The Broadway Collection: The Very Best of Andrew Lloyd Webber" did receive a digital release though. That compilation album features broadway cast recordings instead of the pop singles on this one.
