Posted: 1/30/15 at 1:12amWith the original cast recording having only been released a year ago this February, and the show opening at Circle in the Square in April, how do you think they approach the recording? With many of the original cast recording members transferring to the Circle production, would they record a whole new cast album to be sold as the OBC or would they just continue selling the Original Cast Recording?

^ Untrue. There are three different cast members for the Broadway cast. Emily Skeggs, Oscar Williams and Zell Morrow. Perhaps they'll be a new recording, but it's doubtful.

Posted: 1/30/15 at 4:04amIf they make a bunch of changes I could see PSClassics just recording the new material and rerecording songs with new cast members like they did with the Grey Gardens cast album. At the very least I wouldn't mind a reissue with the new artwork.

And the current recording is pretty wonderful. I wouldn't expect a new one to he made
It makes no financial sense.

Posted: 1/30/15 at 12:59pmLike CATS said unless there are substantial revisions, which doesn't seem too too likely, they're likely not to even reissue it with the new artwork.

Posted: 1/30/15 at 1:07pmOh yeah, the boys.

Posted: 1/30/15 at 2:42pmA re-issue isn't unprecedented- Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson's cast recording was re-issued to reflect its Broadway artwork, for example. I certainly would not find it unwelcome, since I think the Public artwork for Fun Home was garish.

Posted: 1/30/15 at 2:43pmThe boys are barely in the show. The only real difference is Emily Skeggs. No need for a re-recording.

Posted: 1/30/15 at 3:14pmThey aren't "barely in the show". There are three new actors in it, which was the point.

Posted: 1/30/15 at 3:25pmI understand what "the point" was. I stand by what I said.

Posted: 1/30/15 at 4:00pmI feel like they'll do a new recording. It'll help when the Tony's roll around.

How will it help with the Tonys? That doesn't even make sense.

Does anyone know if they are making revisions?
Grey Gardens made a few changes for Broadway and PS Classics released a new recording.

If it's the artwork I remember, it's taken directly from the graphic novel. I like it.

Posted: 1/30/15 at 8:18pm^The covers I've seen are a shade of blue or green and have different art. I haven't seen the bright red artwork used for the graphic novel.

Oh, I have the download from iTunes and it's the blue artwork with the red background from the book. If you haven't read the book, it's lovely. The tone is a bit different. It's wonderful in a different way. Definitely worth checking out if you haven't.

^Such grammer

Holler will probably never have a cast album and Fun Home already has a spectacular cast album.
