OK, now could someone please explain why you want this?
Because as with every Broadway show, there are people who like it and want a cast recording. And for many, they want it because they like the cast and because it is different from the film soundtrack. The cast recording is for those who wish to relive the experience of the Broadway show, not the film. Those who don't like the show or don't want the recording won't buy it. So what?

Huzzah indeed! Maybe we need to set up some kind of program...buy them at the HH and ship them to all the fANADUs that can't wait until January.
Of course Annie will be on it, she sings the show every night!

Amen, sista backup! We need to help out fellow fANADUs all around the globe, and get those cast recordings out ASAP!
I have a feeling this CD is going to be like a drug for me! YEEHOO!

Posted: 10/17/07 at 8:56amI hope they record the taps for Curtis' big number. I'm a big sucker for the sound of taps on CDs.

I just noticed this was added to PS Classics website...

Xanadu 
As announced this past week at all the theatre websites, we’ll be recording the original Broadway cast recording of XANADU on October 29th, and looking to have it in stores on January 8th. But because we recognize that it’s going to make a great holiday gift, we’re aiming to have it on sale exclusively here at PS Classics (and at the Helen Hayes Theatre) the first week of December. More info as it becomes available!
I know there's nothing new but I CAN'T WAIT!!!!

So I was just on the PS Classics website. It says there that the CD will be released December 11th.
Anyone else excited?!?!?!
Question, is there anyway to pre order the CD (aside from Amazon). Usually when you pre order from the record company, they send out the orders a bit earlier. There is no where to pre order on the PS Classics website nor on the Xanadu site. Am I missing something?
?

It will probably UP for pre-order on Dec. 11 on PS Classics website : Let's hope !

The official release date is January 8, 2008.... But it will be available at the Helen Hayes Theater and on PS Classics website on (or around) December 11, 2007.
So if you order it on Decemmer 11 from PS Classics that would be like pre-ordered. The only other place you can pre-order it now would be from Amazon but I would wait for PS Classics to have an order form (or go to the theater, which is what I'll do.)

Thanks Jay!!
Hopefully they'll just release the CD on Dec. 11th instead of opening pre orders that day.
I did read somewhere that the CD will be on sale at the theatre and PS Classics the first week of December.
