Posted: 11/12/08 at 3:19pm"Platinum" (Starring Alexis Smith). I saw it in Philly 3 times for the music before it moved to Broadway. It had a short run. Alexis Smith was nominated for a Tony for it (I'm almost sure). But it was never recorded.

I too would love to see a Cry-Baby cd
and more than anything, this: 
You're reminding me of people you hear at the movies asking questions every ten seconds, "Who is that? Why is that guy walking down the street? Who's that lady coming up to him? Uh-oh, why did that car go by? Why is it so dark in this theater?" - FindingNamo on strummergirl
"If artists were machines, then I'm just a different kind of machine...I'd probably be a toaster. Actually, I'd be a toaster oven because they're more versatile. And I like making grilled cheese" -Regina Spektor
"That's, like, twelve shows! ...Or seven." -Crazy SA Fangirl
"They say that just being relaxed is the most important thing [in acting]. I take that to another level, I think kinda like yawning and...like being partially asleep onstage is also good, but whatever." - Sherie Rene Scott

I second MrSweetNAwful. I'd love to have that Threepenny recording.
And add me to the Cry-Baby list, as well.

Posted: 11/13/08 at 11:50amDance of the Vampires. Even if the script sucked, the music is flipping amazing in any language.

Sign me up for all the obvious ones--Carrie, hell even Lestat (surely there'd be enough interest in releasing a limited edition at least), a complete 1971 Follies... (it's ironic that we got a better quality cast album for Anyone Can Whistle than for Follies--Hal Prince and his brief feud with Columbia Records, where Follies woulda been given a double disc, deserves a lot of Hell for that).
I feel bad complaining what with Little Fish finally being recorded, but I'm such an obsessed fan, I wish some of LaChiusa's other shows were recorded. Speaking of Hal Prince, his off Broadway production (one of the most expensive off Broadway productions ever) of LaChiusa's Petrified Prince deserves a recording. Lovers and Friends, The Highest Yellow, and his Japanese dark production of Nutcracker (which I can find very little about though it was by director Amon Miyamoto who's so famous for his Sondheim productions there) are works I'd love to hear.
Ten or so years back I heard plans for a full recording of the great Menken/Ashman God Bless You Mr Rosewater. There's a lot of unrecorded (professionally) Menken out ther ebut this tops my list--a great score and one that deserves more exposure.
I'd like Dance of the Vampires and (menken) Hucnhback of Notre Dame English recordings as well

I don't know if this counts....
but I would love a recording of "A Little Night Music" with Kendra Kassebaum from the upcoming concert....

Posted: 11/13/08 at 4:50pmI would love an English recording of Dance of the Vampires with Chuck Wagner or Marc Kudish as Von Krolock.

Kissynose, I see you mentioned No No Nanette (Encores).
I'd like to second that, and Mara Davi was wonderful in the title role!

GeekGirl06, there is a cast recording of "James Joyce's The Dead". It's not the original Broadway Cast, but still... Pittsburgh's Irish and Classical Theater recorded their cast's production. It wasn't released to stores, but if you made a donation to their company, you could get one. They still might have some left.
I wish that there were a complete recording of the original cast of "The Golden Apple" and a complete recording of "Falsettos" with Mandy Patinkin and Barbara Walsh and a studio recording of "Lolita, My Love"
