You're welcome. Enjoy it...I hope. From listening to the original Broadway cast recording so many times and listening to everything up to Pretty Music on the London cast recording, I already imagine my perfect Parade production...

all the revisions made for the show in London + the original Broadway orchestrations (which would mean new orchestrations for the new songs) = heaven

Well, folks, I've finished listening to the recording. And my biggest complaint about the recording is Where Will You Stand When The Flood Comes. It seems so tiny with the reduced orchestrations. Listening to this song on the OBC scares the living spit out of me cuz it's such a terrifying song.

That said, apart from one disappointing song, I love the London cast recording of Parade and now I really really really really really want to see a production of this show with the changes made to the London production and Don Sebesky's orchestrations. That and the cast has to sing the first half of the chorus of The Old Red Hills of Home a capella in the finale like they do on the recording. That would be sweeeeeeeeeeeeet.
