aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh! i thought they made her walk the plank!!! be gone woman!
the wait is killing me. does anyone know if itunes will have it on Tuesday?
I heard of the Pirate Queen, but not the cast recording hm.
wow, i cant stop listening to the songs on Myspace!
"A Day Beyond Belclare" is kind of a life-maker, haha
And wow, i will have a hard time not listening to this recording.
Stephanie as well as everyone else sound gorgeous, and the orchestrations are really full and lovely.
It sounds so good! When we met the producers at the closing show, they kept saying how great the recording was but in the back of my mind, I kept thinking they'd pull a Lestat and not release it.
But this makes me sooo happy! It's so beautiful!
Thanks for the link! It sounds fantastic. I can't wait to get it!

Sounds pretty good to me. I have a trip coming up; I'll probably buy it to listen to on the way there.
having finally heard the full version of "woman" its probably my new favorite by Boublil and Schoenberg... or at least tied for #1 with OMO...
I picked it up today!!!!!! I bought it at a store called 'Colony' on Time Square.
It's a beautiful cd that really does it's best to capture the show. Fans of the THE PIRATE QUEEN will be happy to have it but sadly since it's a single disc, most of the smaller really pretty musical moments are not on it. I've been listening to it all day and am very happy to at least have this.

Thank you for confirming my undying love for Stephanie J. Block. When I saw the show I was blown away and I've never met a nicer actress at the stagedoor.
And now... she's proven herself again with an incredible OBC recording for the show.
It still breaks my heart the show ended as it did. Steph and Hadley Frasier were two of the absolute most talented vocalists on Broadway in my opinion.
I will be visiting the myspace link frequently until I get my hands on the CD itself! CAN'T WAIT.
My CD shipped from Amazon today. One day shipping so I should be getting it tomorrow, I guess. Before it said Thursday, but that was if it shipped on Tuesday.

Mine was shipped today. Trying to "give it a chance" for all you Pirateheads. I bet most of the PQ's wont' be giving the same "chance" to Face the Music, a delightful musical, that gets its cd release on the same day as Pirate Queen.
Will be at "J and R" tomorrow during lunch !!
Came in the mail today!
gah. I hate you. I want mine now!
It is now available on iTunes for the low price of $9.99!
Pre-ordered mine from Best Buy... and still waiting for it to be shipped

I'm not seeing it. Did you just search for "pirate queen"?
Yes I did. Just type in "Pirate Queen" it should pop up!

I found it! But, oddly enough, I had to type in "Boublil" to get anything. For me
"Pirate Queen" still only shows the podcast when I search it.
I'm not this show's number one fan, but listening to the cast recording really makes me realize what a shame it was that this show didn't do better. The album is quite stunning--very crisp and well-produced. I am very pleasantly surprised. With so much talent in the cast, its a shame the creative team couldn't make it work.
