DEAD OUTLAW Original Broadway Cast Recording Thread

It’s also up on Spotify.

Will be listening to “A Stranger” on repeat a lot today, I suspect.

Any news on when the rest of it will arrive? I really hate the new trend of cast recordings coming out in dribs and drabs.

Actually, now that I look at the tracklist, this is the same set of songs they performed at their press/launch concert event last month.

They intend to postpone this release if the show is still running on Broadway (for obvious reasons).

Loving this so far! This is unlike anything Yazbek has ever written.

When this ran downtown, one critic said that the opening ballad may as well be called “Oh, What a Beautiful Evenin’.” With its simple melody, slight twang, and praise for the natural world, who am I to disagree?

“Dead” might be one of the earworms of the season (that guitar riff is irresistible!), and “Up to the Stars” has the makings of a cabaret favorite.

I waited and waited for this and maybe it's me, but these tracks lack a certain spark, a certain grit to my ear. Maybe that energy can only be captured in a live performance. Guess I'll have to go, again. Poor me.

Has anyone heard an update on Part 2 of the cast recording?

The full version is only available only on audible and came out July 17, looks like they had a deal for the rights of the full album based on what I read, so who knows when it will come out on the other streamers.

I don’t understand why they have such a deal.

It’s not like Audible is the sole producer of this show. In hindsight I don’t see this show benefits much from the Audible release. It actually may have hurt the show more than it helps.

David Yazbek did mention on his IG when the Audible recording was announced that a separate full cast recording was also forthcoming --- holding out hope that's still the case

I'm STOKED to find "Normal (Reprise)" performed by Julia Knitel listed on the Track List!

If there was a music category of "Bops About Death," this show would corner the market. Most of them were already in part 1 of the album, but glad to add Somethin' Bout a Mummy to the list
