How is the physical CD? Are the liner notes etc. worth paying the extra seven bucks as opposed to getting it on iTunes?
Worth it! Beautifully put together...full lyrics and photos.
The packaging is up to the usual PS Classics standards and the booklet includes a background article on the show, a detailed synopsis and all the lyrics as well as several color pictures of the production.
Whether you need it depends on how much of a serious collector you are. I HAVE to have the notes and booklet.
At one time when downloads were being promotes, weren't people supposed to have the option of having the CD booklet and J-card mailed to them?
Cast albums are NOT "soundtracks."
Live theatre does not use a "soundtrack." If it did, it wouldn't be live theatre!
I host a weekly one-hour radio program featuring cast album selections as well as songs by cabaret, jazz and theatre artists. The program, FRONT ROW CENTRE is heard Sundays 9 to 10 am and also Saturdays from 8 to 9 am (eastern times) on www.proudfm.com
I know some iTunes releases have a digital liner notes attached, but that's only for some releases.
i would buy the CD. i honestly felt the packaging was really nice and gave great pictures as well some loose sketches of the characters.
