Hmm I second Jenna Leigh Green. Someone mentioned Jennifer Laura Thompson, and while I really enjoy her, I dont think she would do well with a solo album. I dont know she just seems to be better in the context of a show.
NLB and Mary Testa would also be great albums too! And as for Idina Menzel and Sherie Rene Scott, yes they both have CD's out, it would be nice if Sherie did another one at some point. Idina signed a record deal a few months ago with Warner Brothers and is actually going to be working on another one soon.

Definitely Sutton Foster and Doug Sills!
Also, I'd love a showtune recording from Idina Menzel.
And more duets from Alice Ripley and Emily Skinner:).

"Maureen McGovern, a solo album?
That's just crazy enough to work."
LOL
I know, it's crazy that in all her years in the business she hasn't done a solo album!

Posted: 1/10/06 at 12:57pmSeriously though, on Maureen McGovern, if you haven't heard her albums you should, they are all amazine, though my favorite is her extraordinary transitional album "Another Woman In Love". It is brilliant!

Corine2,
I second your Daniel Reichard (Damn can that boy sing), and raise you a John Lloyd Young. Regular voice though. Leave that falsetto with Jersey Boys. Much as I love it, I want to hear his normal singing voice on it.
#62re: Broadway performers who SHOULD have solo albums
Posted: 1/10/06 at 1:50pmFYI - Lea Salonga has at least 4 solo albums already. Not that more aren't welcome :)

Cheyenne Jackson. I'd be first in line.

Sutton Foster!
Yes she was supposedly working on one, and I heard that from a very realiable source (her musical director), but that was quite some time ago and I'm still waiting.
Anyway, she'll be doing gigs at Joe's Pub and at Feinstein's in the near future, maybe something will come of it.

Have to agree with Jesse L. Martin. I think his voice is terrific and I'd definitely love to hear more of it.
Brian Stokes Mitchell - yes!
Keli O'Hara, definitely.
Daniel Davis also has a terrific voice.

I'm in shock that only 2 other people mentioned Terrence Mann. This man has a lifetime more of talent and experience than a majority of the people mentioned. Eden Espinosa? Christina Applegate? Cheyenne Jackson? No offense to those craving their solo CDs, but let those performers originate a role in a successful show on Broadway before giving them a solo CD.
I'm all about the TMann now cuz of the wonder that is "Rags!"

Posted: 1/10/06 at 8:08pmHugh Panaro and Jenna Leigh Green. I heard somewhere that Hugh Panaro actually does have a solo album, but I can't find it anywhere, so the person is probably misinformed.
