There was never an official soundtrack released of the movie ON THE TOWN but some selections have turned up in some of the Rhino CD compilations.

A British studio cast recording of the film score was released on LP but has not been released on CD.

MAGGIE FLYNN is coming on CD from DRG later this month. Latest info I have says it will be out on Feb 10, but that may change. (DRG 19123)

Some months after the OBCR of COMPANY was release, Larry Kert came into the Columbia Studios and they tracked his voice over Dean Jones' voice. The Lp was never issued in the U.S. but was released - briefly - in London when the how played there. In 1994 Sony set up a new label called Sony West End (to compliment their Sony Broadway line) and they released this version of COMPANY in the U.K. (and also in Canada) as SMK 53496. It was not released in the U.S. but some stores like Footlight brought it in as an import. This CD was in print a few years but eventually dropped from the catalogue, as were the others in the series.

To find the U.K. release watch E-Bay and Amazon marketplace but it will be an expensive item. Frankly I think it is overpriced as technically it is not great. You can tell Larry Kert is not in the same studio as everyone else, and you can faintly hear Dean Jones' voice in the background. Larry Kert's version of "Being Alive" was added as a bonus track to Sony's 1998 reissue of the OBCR.

If you look up any title on the Cast Album database (use the link in my previous message) you will find info on any commercial records and quite a few non-commercials as well.

There were songs from LOOK TO THE LILLIES on one side of an LP (PLEASURES AND PALACES was on the reverse) and it appears that has come out on CD. Beware these Blue Pear discs as hey are often dubbed from sound system tapes and quality is quite poor.

There is a CD of LOVELY LADIES listed but it this bootleg from a "live audeince tape" (which means given the technology of the time it will probably be unlistenable.) I had heard that Bruce Yeko was planning a studio cast album of the score but haven't heard much about it.

Nothing on Georgy Girl, although audeince or sound system tapes are probably out there. (I do not collect these since the sound quality is so poor, and legally I cannot use them on my radio show.)

Some of the cut songs from FIDDLER can be heard as bonus tracks on the recent reissue of the OBCR. Also on this recording you can hear "When Messiah Comes"

It is also on one of the LOST IN BOSTON albums. Ther were 4 volums released all featuring songs that were cut from shows. All 4 contain a wealth of great material and are worth invstigating.
