I'm searching for a cast album, if such a things exist, of Rodgers and Hart's "I'd Rather be Right." I'm especially interested in finding a recording of one of the songs from the show, namely, "A Little Bit of Constitutional Fun." Any suggestions? Many thanks...

I think James Cagney does a version of "Off the Record" in "Yankee Doodle Dandy" from that show.
Not a cast album, but one of the songs....

Sadly it's one of the MANY Rodgers & Hart shows that still remains unrecorded.

I'd love to hear the full score myself. "Have You Met Miss Jones" is a wonderful song.

There was a noncommercial recording of the show released a while ago. It seems to be very difficult to find, though.

I believe the recording is of a college production done in the midwest (Ohio?) in the late 70s.

Do you have the recording, Wilmingtom?

There was a very very short time where audio clips from an older fully orchestrated production surfaced on YouTube. They quickly vanished never to be heard again.
