CAST RECORDINGS OF 2016: A PERSONAL LOOK

I know it’s a little bit late for this, but I finally had time to do my list of the best recordings released in 2016 and, just for fun, I also decide to create the “Jorge’s Place Awards”.

Before crucifying me for my choices, keep in mind that I love the traditional Broadway sound and I have strong difficulties to enjoy other music styles. So, everything that sounds like rock, country or folk hardly have a chance to catch my narrow-minded ears.

The only thing that really seems odd to me is naming two CD re-releases as Best Cast Recordings of 2016. They weren't recorded in 2016 or even released on CD for the first time in 2016. They just fell out of print for a while and are now offered to be burned on demand on a CD-R. Seems like an Honorable Mention at best.

You're right, I shouldn't have included re-releases on my list. So I just changed my list and I created a few more "awards", including one for Best Reissue.

Thanks for your comments.
