Is there any website has complete list of cast recording that RENT has?
I'm trying so hard to collect them all,but don't know what else I still need to looking for.
#1re: RENT cast recording....
Posted: 7/25/06 at 11:45pmThere is ONE cast recording. One legal cast recording. Then there is a movie soundtrack. That is all.
#2re: RENT cast recording....
Posted: 7/25/06 at 11:49pmI think Mikey3 is talking about other international cast recordings in addition to the OBCR and OMPS. I don't have a complete list of them, but I'm sure someone somewhere does.

Posted: 7/26/06 at 1:08amI don't think they released anything past "On sort ce soir" (Out Tonight). And I don't think you can buy it, either. It used to be on the Quebecois production but I doubt if that website is even still up/the link still works.

Cast albums are NOT "soundtracks."
Live theatre does not use a "soundtrack." If it did, it wouldn't be live theatre!

Posted: 7/26/06 at 9:52amI know there's a live recording of the Spanish cast out there, but I'm not sure how legal it is or where to find it. But it exists! Good luck!

Is this a way to listen to clips to these other casts online? I'm a real Renthead and would love to listen to the show in other lanuguages.
Thanks

Posted: 7/26/06 at 10:13amI know it's not exactly what you're looking for, but you can go to the various Amazon.coms (amazon.de, amazon.ca, etc.), search for the albums (it's set up exactly like American Amazon, so you don't need to speak the languages to search) and then you can listen to song clips. I listened to parts of the German soundtrack that way. "Rent" sounds funny in German.

Gee, from "There is ONE cast recording. One legal cast recording. Then there is a movie soundtrack. That is all.." to "They're dead hard to get.. there's Spanish, German, Icelandic, Italian... what else..." in the space of about six minutes.
Congratulations! You're the new mayor of Contradiction City.

Shame it never got a UK cast recording from the original 90s run. Saying that we had too many of the Broadway cast in it at first to really justify it.
I would have loved for the disco, dance, pop music version of Rent that is known as Rent Remixed to have got a recordinng
The show was so horrid. I do have a naughty CD of the show which i listen too when i want a giggle. Listening to an emo version of What You Own or a 20s Burlesque version of Out Tonight always makes me smile lol

They did make a five song sampler for that production.
