I went to purchase the Boop CD and no source has it available. Was anyone able to purchase a copy before it became ‘temporarily out of stock’ 3 days after its release?

It was 'out of stock' the day of release. I bought mine on importcd. They have it on backorder now but they are pretty good at fulfillment. Good luck!

I don't think it's coming out — it looks like the Redwood vinyl release that was canceled the minute they announced the closing. I think they're just trying to cut their losses.

what a shame if cancelled. While the show was a misfire, the score was ebullient and fun,

What a bummer 

I was looking for these vinyl releases of cast recordings - i usually buy them when the prices drop a little 

 

I understand it costs a lot to press vinyls but not sure about CDs - imho it should cost less and sell more

According to Amazon, this CD will now be released on August 15. Excellent news!

order now and get a new set of steak knives, lettuce spinner and pocket fisherman. This is a sad gasp for Foster to get another Grammy. Although, if you order six CD's, you ca have a set of Boop! drink coasters.

Thanks Carlos!! What a gift for linguistics. I am the not miserable , I guess I would be if I was a BOOP  investor or someone invested in a studio recording of a flop.

Investing in a cast recording might be a bit of a long term game here.  Lots of not that great shows have lives in licensing for secondary and amateur markets; many of the things that detract from BOOP as a whole (most of the subplots) might be quite a nice selling point to amateur casts wanting to cast broadly in terms of age and talent.  The songs are pretty catchy, and although the Broadway production has lots of pizzazz and choreography it's the kind of thing I could see being a bit of a crowd pleaser to, frankly, less demanding audiences that are happy with a change of wash to symbolise colour versus black and white.  If you've got a soundtrack out there, people will use it as a reference for their own production - it's a pretty major part of licensing.

Well, either that, or David Foster funds its production entirely from his own funds as he has probably got the cash to spare to produce an album.
