It would be a pretty short album if it was just the songs.

Bud, Doug, this show is fantastic! I don't need to hear another note. You know what? Let me give you a few notes:

Bud: your undeniable charm carries through for over an hour, and I must single out your brilliant diva performance as Helvetica, the damsel in distress. The music you wrote sounds great and is brought to life by a nifty three-piece band of Jersey's finest. You certainly know your Broadway musical tropes!

Doug: you give the titular figure in your musical a likable, smart-aleck vibe that is completely on point and seemingly reminiscent of Elder Price for some strange reason. Historically inaccurate as Gutenberg! might be, your libretto is the perfect blend of touching and downright hilarious. Who knew that such scant research could lead you and Bud this far?

Herzlichen Glückwunsch on a successful Broadway run, and your Tony nomination for best revival of a musical!

The CD includes a booklet with photos and a synopsis of the show, and the case includes a note from the playwrights. No lyrics.
