Someone must have stepped up with a ton of cash to get that done!

Not for nothing but I am extremely impressed consistently with Broadway Records. They along with PS Classics are neck and neck as my favorite cast album producers and distributors.

Great news. This may not have played too well in the theatre on this occasion, but this will be enjoyed in the homes and earbuds of the world, for many happy years to come. Hearty congrats to the Doctor Zed team.
Hey prayer works! I guess now I should start praying for more important things...
Just went on Broadway Records website & pre ordered it. Cannot wait for Paul Nolan's " No Mercy"
Now I can direct my prayers for a new Wildhorn show. Maybe he can do his version of Dr Z. Could not get worse reviews & we would get his power ballads which this piece screams out for. Than again, he has so many shows in the pipeline it could be any of them. Would love Havana & an off Broadway Camille Claudel where it might thrive.
What investment would we be talking about to get the recording done?
The roughly 400,000. it costs to record and produce it.
Wow That is a serious hunk of change.
They have to have future plans for it unless this is a heavy duty vanity project.
I am so thrilled to hear this news!
Remember when the 2 giants of cast albums were RCA Victor and Columbia?
Whether you think this musical is good or bad or wehatever I'm glad this show is getting a recording it could just confirm your opinion of the show or could change it
To set the record straight
We saw it and enjoyed it and are glad there will be a cast album.

Yes, yes, yes! There are no words to accurately convey how happy I am about this.
I just tossed out my virtually unlistenable audio bootleg

Count me in as super excited. Thank you to everyone involved!
I'm so excited for this that I added an alert to my calendar so I don't forget! I cannot WAIT to get a chance to fully digest this score. Yes yes yes yes yes!!
It still gets no respect
Even thought it has been officially announced & is now on Talkin' Broadway, Playbill website does not show it in either No Recording Scheduled or that one is being done with a release date.
They did have the announcement on the front page of the website last I saw.
They did but it never made it to the main list when you click on upcoming cast albums

As far as CD's go the pre-order was a splurge but I need to know that I'll be able to listen to this album at my leisure. Now if only I could figure out how to get Spotify to recognize the physical CD's I copy into my music libraries.
Per a friend's FB page, it looks like they recorded right in the theater?
I think it's a recording studio that used to be a theatre. I don't think that was the Broadway Theatre.
I watched part of the recording session live on Periscope yesterday - fascinating to see how spread out the participants are, some on the stage, some in the open space where seats would be (if it was still being used as a theater).
