Hugh Jackman can be heard on the Debra Byrne (Norma in the Melbourne Sunset Boulevard) CD New Ways To Dream. He duets on No one Is Alone, and (I think)The Perfect Year.

Donnybrook - YES! Any recording with Susan Johnson on it gets my vote!

I would love, love, love for there to be a recording of Hairspray with Kathy Brier as Tracy. Then, I would happy and my dream cast would be singing together. On this recording, I would want them to add "The Madison", and The Gym Scene music as well as the extra dialogue in "You Can't Stop The Beat" and "The Nicest Kids in Town".

A TIME FOR SINGING, Yes! I am familir with it!

And, if someone could ever get the live recordings made during my performing days. There was always someone in the orchestra pit or backstage with a huge recording machine. As far as I know there were backstage recordings of (a partial list:)

ON YOUR TOES
BABES IN ARMS
I'D RATHER BE RIGHT
LEAVE IT TO ME
DUBARRY WAS A LADY
TOO MANY GIRLS
PANAMA HATTIE
LADY IN THE DARK
PAL JOEY
BY JUPITER

I'd love to know what happened to these recordings. Probably thrown out. The sound would be poor, but you'd get a real original cast feel!!!

DOTV above all - but aren't we talking about cast albums that have been recorded on LP but aren't on CD?

Donnybrook - YES! Just cut a new cassette of it from LP this afternoon...so it would be wonderful to have it on CD.

Say Darling (probably soon from London where copyright protection has run out on the old 50s RCA cast albums and they are being released there and exported to the U.S.A. - Call Me Madam, Paint Your Wagon, New Faces of 52, etc.)

The Littlest Show (Joel Grey and lots of other future stars introduced in the show and on the LP).

Happy Hunting has gone out of print on CD - so it needs to be reissued. And if Whoop-Up! is reissued on CD, they better keep the bonus tracks.

Jamaica should be reissued on CD but this time with the exceptional four studio-recorded tracks by Lena Horne for 45 ep release...they are so much better than the same songs on the cast album. If they can reissue Redhead a second time on CD with extra tracks added, they can do the same for Jamaica.

Of course, RCA is deleting their show CDs in general and aren't really interested in keeping them in catalogue let alone re-issuing them again with more tracks. Grab 'em while you can still get 'em.

Oh yeah, in answer to the question about Jackman in Boy from Oz being recorded - it is going to be by Decca Broadway, and Hugh is already plugging it from the stage during the show - when he adlibs and jokes around with the audience.

Wonder which song they cut out today! The ones they were cutting during the first week of previews are essential to who Peter Allen was...but then this isn't a show about Peter Allen, it is a show about Hugh Jackman, Broadway Superstar (and as Dame Edna says, I mean that in a kind way).

The rewritten "Glamorous Life" from A Little Night Music can be heard on the remastered version of the OBCR. I still prefer the original. I, however, would like a recording of the 1990 New York City Opera Cast of A Little Night Music.

Also tossing in for James Joyce's the Dead and a recording of Romance Romance with the 1992 telecast cast. I love Alison Fraser, but not in Romance Romance. She's all over the place on the recording pitch-wise. And, for kicks, how about Musical! The Musical.
