I'm shocked, SHOCKED that theater concessions would charge more for their fares! Ever buy a drink in a theater? It's outrageous....but if you must have it, and you must have it right now, well, there you are.

Sorry -- when you click on MP3 it links you to the ORIGINAL. Sad.

True, but if you want to wait until January 29th, then its not bad...but for those who can't wait...it's a great deal!

HOW is that a great deal? I'm not pretending that I know how anyone wants to spend their money, but in NO way is that a great deal. It might be worth to you, certainly.


That's a lot of money for 75 minutes of music (isn't that what someone posted earlier?).

"HOW is that a great deal?'

It seems pretty clear what Joviedamian means, dramamama, if you look at what I bolded:

"...but for those who can't wait...it's a great deal!"

lf you can't wait for it, it's a great deal considering the alternative is not having it at all.

I mean, maybe it's not a great deal price-wise, but for me it was worth it to have it 10 days earlier than the official release. Maybe that makes me a little nutso but I'm fine with that.

Eh, getting something for almost twice its price- even a little early- is not my cup of tea.

^ mine either..even though I really, really want it..what's 5 more days?

[Joviedamian]

Is it me, or do the samples on the website sound thin and rushed?

Let's hope this gets a digital release tomorrow too. I asked DRG records directly today but got flippant replies.... Very disappointing!

[Joviedamian]

So is this not a DIGITAL download? I went to AMAZON just now to download it and it only gives me the original cast recording to download! At this time the new recording is audio CD only to ship, not digital.

My CD has been shipped and should be delivered later today!

i assumed that the digital release meant it would be able to download on itunes, however it is still not up. does anyone know when it will be on itunes?

[Joviedamian]

Posted: 1/29/13 at 12:56pm

It is really available for digital release? Now that I come to think about it, I don't remember it saying anywhere about digital release...maybe "online" release is what they meant, as in you can order it online only and not see it in stores yet.

^The original BWW article said digital release.

Posted: 1/29/13 at 2:09pm

Anyone find the digital version to buy yet? OR, did anyone receive their copy of the cast album?

[Joviedamian]

Posted: 1/29/13 at 2:12pm

Yeah, checked everywhere...not digital release yet! Your just able to order it online and have it shipped to you.

[Joviedamian]

Update from the ROUNDABOUT Facebook page:
"Roundabout Theatre Company We're following up with the record company and will let you know where to get the digital download asap. Thanks!"

[Rockyfan2000]

No news of it bring available on iTunes or anywhere else at the moment. Means waiting even longer until the postman brings a hard copy.

[dramamama611]

Posted: 1/29/13 at 6:13pm

Rec'd mine today as promised (via Amazon) -- listening as I type: so far I like it! The packaging is really lovely.
