Head over Heels Cast Recording?

Posted: 8/3/18 at 12:26pm

It's curious to me that this hasn't been announced yet. Obviously the show isn't a gigantic hit and is on shaky ground but to me recording this is a no-brainer. It's all new (and excellent) arrangements of some well known songs and despite the show's reception in NYC it's likely to have at least some life in regional theatre and, I would think, substantial life in high school theatre. And yet there is no mention anywhere of plans to record this.

Am I missing something? Anybody have any inside scoop on this one?

It think it just depends on who's willing to throw their money away. Granted, as you said, it'll probably have a life beyond Broadway but someone still has to pay for the album.

^^^ True enough, but if there's one thing I've learned and what many a Broadway writer has said, if you want your show to have any life like, AT ALL....the one investment that should be made is a cast album for sure. Everything else could be debated, but when shows never got a cast album, history shows us that most of them died. I can't imagine HoH won't, it sounds like it absolutely should, but we can only speculate for now.

I think a cast recording would be a smart investment for promoting future regional productions of the show and I suspect a recording announcement could come soon.....I am surprised that there don't appear to be any show posters for sale for this....at least not online at Triton Gallery.....are they selling at the theatre? Seems like a no-brainer as a souvenir for fans of the show.

Very interesting....they aren't even selling them on the show's website....they do have clothing and magnets, etc, but no show cards.....I'll have to see if I can find one online somewhere to add to my collection!

Blame the marketing company for Windowcards not being for for sale at Triton.

I was at a taping of Seth Speaks on Sirius Broadway Tuesday and Bonnie said that a cast recording is in their contracts (which I’m sure is typical), but they haven’t heard anything yet. They’re hoping it happens.

Cast recordings are very expensive, and seeing as they're practically asking strangers on the street for investments to keep it running, it may be that they simply have no funds for it.

It's always a no-brainer when it's someone else's money that needs to be spent.

I was wondering if the recording session had taken place on Monday....many of the cast & creatives with the show that I follow on Twitter were very silent online on Monday. I wonder which label will be distributing and when the announcement will happen.....don't usually love jukebox musical cast recordings, but am really looking forward to this one.

Any hints of release date? The rumors are so exciting... and hoping it to be true

A cast member said it was recorded, I think that takes this out of the rumor catagory.

It's odd, however, that no one tweeted about it while it happened. I'm wondering if it were more of a sample/highlights recording then could send out with perusals.

If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it? These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.

They are starting to use the cast vocals and orchestrations in the commercials, so take that for what it’s worth

Honestly, I loved those orchestrations and worked so well with the choreography

Maybe they should stop pumping money into it for weeks on end and put that towards a cast album. It'll further the life of the show far more than another week running will.

The ablum art is terrible. The regular logo would’ve looked great.
