This is a place where you could post your faovrite cast recordings and why. Give plenty of details, this way people interested in buying a new cast album, they canc ahck this board. You may also include your interest in what made this cd appeal to you...art work..word of mouth....etc. :)
My favorite is WICKED because it comes across very well to disc, it's very clear, it is pleasing, and I can lsiten to it over and over and it doesn't grow old.

Posted: 7/5/05 at 12:53pmHmmm... I think that Into the Woods is my favorite recording. I've never seen the show, but I feel like every emotion and every plot point is very clear and very entertaining on the recording and, therefore, I do feel like I've seen it. Plus, the performances of "Agony" (both) and "Moments in the Woods" are total gems.

Posted: 7/5/05 at 1:04pmThe Last 5 Years because the music is beautiful, Sherie and Norbert are wonderful, and I never get tired of it. Also, its harder for me to skip songs on this CD than any of my other CDs.

RENT is by far the one I never, ever get tired of.
PIPPIN, because I think it's an amazing score and I enjoy singing along.
The odd one here...I thoroughly enjoy listening to CATS. For some reason, it's just darn catchy.

Posted: 7/5/05 at 3:01pmRENT - becuase of the energy, story behind making the show, the cast, and the show itself, the lessons you can learn from it, and the good music.

Posted: 7/5/05 at 3:02pmWicked is great because you can listen to the music OVER and OVER (for me it's almost been a year). Right now I'm liking Funny Girl. I actually like 'I Want To Be See With You'.

2. Tick, Tick...BOOM!
3. Aida
4. The Last Five Years
5. YAGMCB
2. Great buckets of Spoffnor, they're going to sing!
3. "I love shrubs that are historical." -Johnny and The Sprites
4. "We're not singing it to you, we're singing it for us." -Rosario Dawson, about La Vie Boheme
5. "The best moments in reading are when you come across something - a thought, a feeling, a way of looking at things - which you had thought special and particular to you. And now, here it is, set down by someone else, a person you have never met, someone even who is long dead. And it is as if a hand has come out, and taken yours." -The History Boys
6. "Pass the parcel. That's sometimes all you can do. Take it, feel it and pass it on. Not for me, not for you, but for someone, somewhere, one day. Pass it on, boys. That's the game I want you to learn. Pass it on." -The History Boys

Rent, just because.
I also love The Last Five Years!! One can listen to that CD at any point of time. When your life sucks, when your life is awesome, when love sucks (ugh), when love is awesome...there is a song for every emotion on that recording.
