It is interesting what kind of music they choose to perform and how they structure the CD...
Favorite CD by a broadway star/performer?

One of my all-time favorites is Randy Graff's CD of Cy Coleman music. Great songs and perfect interpretations and arrangements. I saw her once in the audience at Manhattan Theater Club and told her how much I loved that CD, and she seemed almost surprised.

This is so hard! My favorites (yes there are multiple) are:
Alfie Boe-Bring Him Home
Betty Buckely-Betty Buckley's Broadway
Elaine Paige-Encore
Eden Espinosa-Look Around
Megan Hilty-It Happens All The Time
Patti Lupone-Live!
And I pretty much love all of Scott Alan's music.

Agree with Gavin's Quiet.
I've really enjoyed Norbert Leo Butz's Memory & Mayhem 54 Below recording too.

The great thing with human brains is they're fanless, nice and quiet although I'm sure mine whistles a bit sometimes.

I never tire of listening to The Maury Yeston Songbook. Beautiful songs sung by Betty Buckley, Laura Benanti, Sutton Foster, Brian d'Arcy James, Christopher Fitzgerald, Brent Barrett and many others. Just a perfectly romantic CD.

It's only an EP, but Sara Ramirez's. And I also love Matthew Morrison's latest.

I have not particularly cared for my early ventures in area (I will not name names), but after buying Laura Osnes' new CD and two of the (Ripley/Skinner) recordings. I am back in the market.
I have liked Buckley '67 and several of Linda Eder's (does she count?).
Just bought:
Stephanie J. Block - This Place I Know
The Maury Yeston Songbook
Megan Hilty-It Happens All The Time
Alice Ripley's "Everything's Fine"
Keep the recommendations coming...

My most recent favorite is Liz Callaway's The Story Goes On: On & Off Broadway.
Gosh, she has the voice of a trickling brook in springtime!

Definitely Alfie Boe's Bring him home. Michael Crawford and Michael Ball have done some nice ones too. Of course, I still think it would be nice if Terrence Mann did a solo recording. I'd buy it. I love his voice!

I really like Barbara Cook's "Songs of Perfect Propriety," a solo album not of show standards, but of material based on the poetry of Dorothy Parker.
