Haha, thanks. No need to bow. I bought it before it famously went out of print and became the highly sought after item it is today.

Les Miz (around 20)
Miss Saigon (2)
Scarlet Pimpernel (3)

and others

Quasi, isn't "Elisabeth" sooo good? You certainly have more recordings than me, but I have 5, and I can't wait for the DVD that's coming out in December -- finally one in German rather than Japanese.

I have multiple recordings of a lot of shows:

I'm a bum...
I pick which recording I like better, buy it... and then get the songs that are only on the other one through iTunes or my sister...
I'm a poor teenager... who is unfortunately saving up for college... darn education!
I do have two Chicagos and two Sound of Music though.
Oh, I have the two Rents too... I forgot.

23 (twenty-three) different recordings of SHOWBOAT. No kidding!!!
