I realize that nothing has been officially announced (unless I missed it)...but I'll ask anyway...any updates on the cast recording of ROOMS? I know it was recorded and it has been announced that it would be released in late Spring...well, it doesn't get much later than this (summer starts this weekend)...any news would be greatly appreciated! Many thanks!!!
Tonya Pinkins: Then we had a "Lot's Wife" last June that was my personal favorite. I'm still trying to get them to let me sing it at some performance where we get to sing an excerpt that's gone.
Tony Kushner: You can sing it at my funeral.
Enjoyed the show (sorry it closed before I could revisit it), liked the score, will definitely grab it wnhen it comes out.

No new date posted, but: RoomsNYC ROOMS a rock romance cd is going to be released soon! Just got word that there is a Bonus track! twitter.com: RoomsNYC
The bonus track is "Click," a song that was cut from the show during the developmental phase.

somethingwicked is correct. The cast recording of ROOMS will be released somewhere around the September/October time frame by Time Life Records. It will include the bonus track "Click." Just wanted to confirm this information.
Pgenre, I worked as an intern with Geva last summer, the Rochester theatre that co-produced the MetroStage production, so I got to hear the demo. From what I can tell, it's a live recording of the show while it was at NYMF. There's a reader doing a few stage directions.
On Oct. 14, Leslie Kritzer and Doug Kreeger, of Off-Broadway's Rooms will celebrate the release of the show's original cast recording with an 8:30 PM concert at Sweet Caroline's. Penned by Paul Scott Goodman (Bright Lights Big City) and Miriam Gordon, the Rooms event will also offer recorded highlights from the new CD. Next Broadway Sensation and In Therapy With Celine Added to NYMF Events Line-Up
Great to know it is really REALLY scheduled to happen!

I thought I'd bump this thread up as ROOMS is now available on iTunes and Amazon.com (I don't know about other digital distributors?) It's £9.99 for us Brits, not sure about US pricing.
Unsurprisingly I never got to see the show and I don't really know the score beyond the odd YouTube clip. Just listening to the first Rooms and I think I'm going to love this album, bizarre Scottish accents and all...
(shame they spelt Kritzer wrong on the tags!)
