...which would it be?
Specify!
Mine would definitely be Spring Awakening. I never get bored of it.

Hmmm...
Does it have to be a cast album? Can Barbara Cook at Carnegie Hall fall into this category?

Posted: 3/8/09 at 4:12pmI can't decide which recording specifically (I guess the OBCR) but WEST SIDE STORY.

Ooh, that is such a difficult decision! Probably the recent Sweeney Todd revival recording, but I'm sure that decision will change based on how I'm feeling tomorrow!
Actually I'm already having second thoughts. I think I'd go for CHESS (the London concept cast recording).

Posted: 3/8/09 at 4:25pmProbably Andrew Lloyd Webber's "The Woman in White." One of the few entirely full recordings -- and "live" from Opening night. Great story, as well as score, too!

Posted: 3/8/09 at 4:37pmOriginal cast recording of Ain't Misbehavin'. It's perfection, plus I'd never be bored.

Posted: 3/8/09 at 4:39pm"Merrily We Roll Along" OBC (Actually tied with "Caroline or Change")
#13re: If you had to listen to one cast recording for the rest of your life...
Posted: 3/8/09 at 4:41pmI second "Ain't Misbehavin" and add "Sophisticated Ladies" and "On Your Toes" both of which take me back to the period instantly (oh my God I'm Man in Chair.)
#14re: If you had to listen to one cast recording for the rest of your life...
Posted: 3/8/09 at 5:01pmOh, no, wait! The OBC of Merrily We Roll Along. This is so hard to do.

Posted: 3/8/09 at 7:38pmThe OBC of Ragtime all the way
#19re: If you had to listen to one cast recording for the rest of your life...
Posted: 3/8/09 at 7:45pmI do love the OBC of Ragtime and any Sweeney Todd recording, but I think Les Miserables is my choice, because it's easy for me to sing along with every song and I never get tired of it. The problem is, though, that there's no 'perfect' cast recording for me-- all four have some cast members I really don't like. So I guess it'd be my own personally tailored version of Les Mis.
