Any news of a Visit cast recording?

I just hope that Jay isn't the label to release it so we can actually get it by 2025

Jay Records seems to have a relationship with Kander, and they DID manage to get THE SCOTTSBORO BOYS out fairly quickly. (It was available by the time of the Broadway opening.) I'm hoping it's PS Classics or Ghostlight. I'd actually love for Tommy Krasker to produce this one.

I'm sure there is a very small chance that it WON'T happen. It seems like a given. Hope we find out soon. Updated On: 3/31/15 at 02:21 PM

I will weep if Jay picks it up.

Wasn't SCOTTSBORO recorded right after the off-broadway run, making it available for the Broadway run?

THE VISIT would be smart to get this recorded and released ASAP, making it available for Tony voters.

Yes, but it only took the summer to mix. Unlike other Jay releases that take a few summers and then some...

It would be smart for them to do what you suggest, ljay. I think these producers are fairly smart, and I hope they're smart enough to take up your suggestion.

I agree. The producers, mainly Tom Kirdahy, have been very smart so far, especially by being the last musical of the season to open. Also, having that gorgeous commercial playing on the major NY networks can only help things.

Is The Visit one of the few shows that hasn't announced a cast album yet? Fun Home already has a cast album, Honeymoon in Vegas has been released, On the Town is finally out, On the Twentieth Century is being released in May, Finding Neverland will at least have the concept recording, Gigi and The King and I have been announced, An American in Paris and Something Rotten will almost certainly be recorded even though they haven't announced yet as far as I know. That just leaves It Should Have Been You, The Visit and Doctor Zhivago, yes? Have I missed anything?

I didn't know they had announced Gigi and The King and I! That makes me happy.
The Visit desperately needs a recording, if only to complete my Kander & Ebb collection.

An American in Paris has been recorded by Sony Masterworks for a June release.

Still no news I guess.... Fingers crossed that there's an announcement soon.

I REALLY want a cast album for this.

I love the score, too, and since seeing the show keep watching the moving and in every way spellbinding clip of "Love and Love Alone" that the production formally issued.

There was a sign at the souvenir stand at Gigi that the cast album would be available 6/15/or 6/16 .

I also hope for one of The Visit. Looking forward to Something Rotten & Dr Z. The latter may be a question mark as the critics may not be kind but time will tell.

Something Rotten will be recording their album at the end of April, right after they open, according to a cast member.

Any word on a 'Hamilton' cast recording?  Will they fit it in before opening on Broadway?

Hamilton will be recorded over the summer and released in September, per a tweet earlier this week from Miranda.

Has anyone heard anything about a recording of It Should Have Been You?

Nothing on ISBY, but The King and I annouced one not long after starting previews.
