Posted: 9/12/12 at 9:56amYes, a little under-whelming but I guess ok for a concept album. I wish they would have held off for a OBCR.

Posted: 9/12/12 at 10:14amThe script on HYDE is all that I don't like. I think 99% of the cover is great. I'm so excited to get my signed copy in the mail and to see the show in October when they come to Houston!

Posted: 9/12/12 at 12:00pmare there any production photos or photos of the sets out yet?

Posted: 9/12/12 at 12:24pm^ You can see a bit of the costumes at the first curtain call, no set pics officially released just yet. Cox's Lucy outfit looks a bit like Eder's from the first national tour.

I can personally never get enough of this show, so I am pretty thrilled.

Since I've never heard one or ever seen J&H I am thrilled to have this one. &I'm so excited to get it before I see the show.
Plus anything with Constantine's voice on it is a good thing.

Posted: 9/12/12 at 5:41pmI wasn't expecting much for the cover, but really? The goal is to sell them at the merch booth on tour, right? You'd think they'd at least use the same logo. Maybe it cost more money to pay the guy who designed the art for the tour to use it on the CD cover?

Posted: 9/12/12 at 6:08pm. . . but it's not a cast album. It should look different then an OCR would look. JMO but I'm easy, I ordered one.

Posted: 9/14/12 at 9:10amI hear the "St. Paul's"/"balls" line has been changed (at long friggin' last). Anyone know what the new one is?

Some of these orchestrations are kind of bizarre. Even more bizarre than the ones they're using in the show.
Jekyll & Hyde#167
Posted: 9/21/12 at 12:30amDoes the band play a little bit of "'Til You Came into My Life" at the beginning of "Take Me as I Am" or was that just my imagination?
Jekyll & Hyde#168
Posted: 9/21/12 at 12:31amThe orchestrations are really weird. I wish they included "Murder" since it's probably the most heavily rewritten number in the show.
Jekyll & Hyde#169
Posted: 9/21/12 at 12:36am^They're really weird in the show too, but not as weird as this. I knew it wasn't going to be the same, but geeze...
Jekyll & Hyde#171
Posted: 9/21/12 at 12:57amYeah, I think actually prefer the show orchestrations to these. I do like "Confrontation" though.
Jekyll & Hyde#172
Posted: 9/21/12 at 1:22am
lol at the music they play at the end of "Dangerous Game."
Jekyll & Hyde#173
Posted: 9/21/12 at 1:39amThe Confrontation is pretty great too. Overall, it's not bad, but they should have waited and made an actual cast recording.
Jekyll & Hyde#174
Posted: 9/21/12 at 1:46amJust saw the show last night. I'll be brief with my thoughts. Teal Wicks is perfection. Constantine sounds really good, but his British accent is very Daniel Radcliffe. Deborah Cox sounded really good, but I think she riffed just a little too much. The set was fine, but I really hope they flesh them out, as well as the orchestrations, when it reaches New York. I thought some of the projections were just a tad out of place, but I thought that some of them worked well The staging for "Murder, Murder" and the Confrontation were done very well, I thought. Overall, a good evening at the theatre, but they need to flesh out the set/orchestra before they reach Broadway.
