I've read on several different websites that Rock of Ages cast is in the process of recording its OBCR, but does anyone have any idea when it's to be released? Or has anyone heard any rumors about when it's to be released? I need that cast recording!

I see commercials for the OBCR on TV all the time.

iTunes in June and cd in July.

I read that on the Cry of the Strip blog.

I think we need a new category for the Grammys:
Best Bew Original Score on a Cast Album,
Best Recording of a bunch of already recorded songs strung together for a Broadway Show.

ROA was recorded by New Line Records (and I believe they are also recording the movie soundtrack). This may shock some of you, but I will be buying this original cast album.

We are alike in that respect, Husk.

You complete each other.
You both have everything.

I will get the album - because I, unlike the other posters in this thread, think the music is great.

I heard it would be available in 4 weeks from when they recorded it- and that was over a week ago.

I want one too.

I heard It was produced by the guy who did Guns & Roses "Appetite For Destruction" so it sounds like they're doing it right. A real rock album. can't wait!

It is currently #16 on iTunes Soundtrack (they lump soundtracks and Cast Recordings together - philistines! LOL) chart.

Not bad for a pre-order...

Completest.

So that's what I am.

Thank you. It feels nice to have a name for it.

completist [kuhm-plee-tist]
noun
a collector who attempts to collect an example of every item in a particular field.

FYI
The -est ending is a superlative.
