Distributor: BMG (distributor) Notes: As the show's actors point out in the liner notes of LET THE MUSIC OUT!, WILL & GRACE has never relied on a soundtrack, yet music has been an integral part of the groundbreaking TV sitcom's spirit. Cher, Barry Manilow, Elton John, Jennifer Lopez, and many others have guest-starred, and musical moments have been sprinkled throughout the series. This collection gathers songs that embody the essence of the beloved comic cabaret that is WILL & GRACE, along with tunes featuring the actors themselves. WILL & GRACE: LET THE MUSIC OUT! is fittingly peppered with karaoke classics such as Gloria Gaynor's "I Will Survive" and Cher's "Gypsies, Tramps & Thieves," making for a veritable party of an album. However, the best tracks are direct references to the program, as with the Bacon Brothers' cover of "Footloose," recalling a scene in which characters Will (Eric McCormack) and Jack (Sean Hayes) dance with that movie's lead actor, Kevin Bacon. Megan Mullally, who plays the bawdy, eccentric Karen, sings a shockingly subdued and sweet duet with Carly Simon on "The Right Thing to Do." The compilation closes on a honeyed note as McCormack sings a piece he penned with duet partner Barry Manilow, "Living with Grace."
