Cast Recording Flubs — Page 2

On my Cry-Baby cast album, around the 2:00 mark in "A Little Upset", you can totally hear a license plate fall and clatter on the ground.

James885, I hear exactly what you're talking about on the Miss Saigon recording (for those who can't hear it, be sure you're listening to the Symphonic Recording, not the OBCR), but what sounds like someone saying "No" (as in "No place...") I think is actually a French Horn. It took me a few listens to realize that though!

If you have volume up loud enough, you can hear a lot of pages turning in the OBC of Chorus Line

BroadwayBound.... this was discussed a long time ago in another thread... but at the end of Another Pyramid it's actually Zoser saying "snuff him out" or something like that... completely intentional... i didn't know that was there until someone posted it on a thread... and i'd listened to the CD many times!

"Maybe its just me but towards the end of gimme gimme (from thoroughly modern mille) sutton needs to clear her throat or something"

I've totally always thought that, but thought it was just my CD. She must've had flem in her throat. Gross.

Wow, I've never noticed this stuff before!!! This is awesome!!!!

The end of "The Final Goodbye" in Spelling Bee is not a flub, it is intentional. You can hear everyone in the cast adlibbing, and Jesse Tyler Ferguson chose "How do you turn this thing off." Deborah Craig says, "Check it." Both crack me up each time.

I read that those notes were not really in Lucie's range. In the theatre it didn't really matter but in the recording studio it mattered.

I'm not sure if my copy of Jersey Boys has a glitch or something but at 0:32 in "Big Girls Don't Cry" there's this really weird squeak that sounds like a mouse being stepped on

When the Rent movie soundtrack came out, on "Love Heals," you can hear someone who holds out the final note too long and goes over and continues singing till everyone is dropped out.

On the same soundtrack, Seasons of Love has some rustling that can be heard in the beginning.

I love this kind of stuff!

I can't give you a specific time stamp, but I love the mistakes in the 100 In The Shade overture from the OBC. There is one moment where there is a particularly big muff up with the brass section. Apparently the recording was from a warm up, though, and not intended for release. Still it made its way to my cd and it's great!

Hey, found this:

"There are numerous mistakes during the overture. According to Donald Pippin it was only used as a warm-up for the orchestra and never intended for inclusion on the original LP release. It was released on later CD release, without proper explanation of its existence, leaving many to point out mistakes in the playing."

I always thought Paul Sorvino's levels were off at the beginning of "Gifts of Love" as he comes off extremely loud than fades to normal volume. "DARLING I HAVE to start the bread for tomorrow..."

my next to normal cd has weird static going on in the middle of "I'm Alive" the first time I heard it I thought it was weird interference on my ipod feed from a radio station, THEN I realized I was listening to the cd...lol

also, in "I am" has anyone else noticed the bad autotune on "we've been FINE for so long now"....?? It bothers me

Also on the original cast of Anyone Can Whistle, on "Me & My Town, when the Boys are singing "Do do wah, do do wa", one boy (according to Harvey Evans it was Tucker Smith) does an extra "Do" after the other boys have stopped singing.
