rokyerhartout, they are playing on the official site's "Hair Radio" streaming radio station, interspersed with tracks from other recordings of the shows, covers of the tunes and songs of the era.

Gavin sounds amazing on the cast recording. Better than all the clips I've seen. I'm not thrilled with the way "Let the Sunshine In" goes all quiet at the end. The reprise makes up for it, but it's not as energetic.

I saw those. Adorable!
CATSNYrevival0- That is the way it is done in the theater. It is more effective when you actually see it though.
Marriage Equality Rally#359
Posted: 5/21/09 at 6:23pmYeah. I sort of see how it's staged with the rehearsal video on the website so it looks like it might be really effective in performance, but without the visual it's slightly confusing and anti-climatic on CD.

Posted: 5/21/09 at 6:24pmYes, the way it trails off is quite haunting.

Posted: 5/21/09 at 6:26pmI agree that it can be confusing on the recording. Also when you see it, the fading makes sense b/c of where the cast is at that moment.

Posted: 5/21/09 at 7:11pmI'm digging "I Got Life". I like how it has that little bit at the end that I've never heard recorded before. There's a lot of little pieces of music that have never been recorded before.

Posted: 5/22/09 at 10:06pmThe "I'm gonna spread it around the world" bit? That's on the OBC.

Posted: 5/23/09 at 2:01amI pretty much love it, but I'm used to listening to the European tour cast recording which had different vocal arrangements so "Sodomy" isn't as exciting vocally and I miss Adam Lambert's "My Conviction", but other than that this recording is pretty superb.

from Mr Roxy:
"I have not been around the area where it was but does anyone know if the building that housed"Cheetah" is still there. If so, what is it now?"
This is right around the corner from me. The building was taken over by a company that rented out sound systems and equipment for large-scale events (S.I.R. - Studio Intrument Rentals) but was torn down about three years ago. It was totally bizarre watching it come down, roof first, then front walls, so you could see the interior space.
A luxury high rise (a skinny tall building) was built, which is now open.

Posted: 5/24/09 at 12:05pmWhen I went at the beginning of May, Cassie was out too, and we saw Jackie Burns. I thought she was phenomenal, and I'm secretly kinda sad she's not going to be on the cast recording. :)
