Was there an announcement about a vinyl or CD release date?

So very hard to listen to, very raw.

If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it? These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.

It’s so hard at the theater because it’s the song that gets the least applause…always. I think basically that abuse doesn’t warrant the same kind of cheering and enthusiasm. The audiences have been treated to funny and clever lyrics/dialogue and professions of love and then all of a sudden, a serious depressing topic is revealed. Yes getting your head chopped off it also serious..lol..but this is very real and current. I always hope that Sam (and her alternates) don’t take it personally.

I think the cast knows - I only saw the first Chicago production and it was dead silence except for some gasps and tears. I think that silence speaks volumes and praise for the performance. I've read other audiences react in all manners - major applause, scattered applause, silence. But then, the show gets right back to prior tone with the next line delivered flippantly (don't know that spoiler tag is needed, but just in case:

It's a great album! It's a shame they recorded when Sam was sick because I can hear it in her voice but still!! Will definitely be listening a lot.

i'm sad Abby didn't go up to the high C sharp in that delicious "truthfully" riff but i suppose the bootleg will have to suffice for that. otherwise the album is fabulous imo

To seek revenge may lead to hell yet everyone does it but seldom as well......

I'm sure it will happen, but we'll probably have to wait a couple of months...

So does the Brooks Atkinson now play this recording on a loop, or are they still using the original one?

They’re still using the studio one, which I find baffling.
