Hey folks: I'm going to be doing some driving and I need a good cast album for the car. Since I've had kids and live in Los Angeles, I've been out of the loop for the last couple years as to what's on stage. Any suggestions?
I like high energy shows (I tend to fall asleep while driving, so keep that in mind :) I appreciate it.

Posted: 2/1/11 at 1:28amI once listened to the 92 revival of Guys and Dolls in order to keep me awake on the road since I knew all the words and could sing along to keep me awake. I would also recommend Hairspray and Little Shop of Horrors for upbeat.
