Brian Stokes Mitchell's new CD on Playbill Records is a nice listen.
Linda Eder's new recording of Garland standards is a solid effort as well.

Not technically Broadway, but Philip Quast's 'Live At The Donmar' is definitely one of the best purchases I've ever made.

Of my many solo albums, Laura Kennedy sings JRB is by far my favorite.
I also enjoy the Skinner/Ripley duet albums anf Judy Kuhn sings Jule Styne (Ithink it's called Time After time)

I love all of Anthony Warlow's albums, particularly Centre Stage and On the Boards. Also, I don't know if this one counts, as it's not all Broadway tunes, but I simply adore Christine Andreas' Love is Good. A few others:
Davis Gaines - Against the Tide
Lauren Kennedy Sings JRB
Christiane Noll - A Broadway Love Story
Liz Callaway - The Story Goes On
Laurie Beechman - No One Is Alone

Posted: 3/3/07 at 3:47pm"Wearing Someone Else's Clothes" by Jason Robert Brown is a great listen. Matt Caplan may have been boring in RENT, but his solo album, "Overtones," is fantastic.
