The vast majority of genres of music are just as unpopular...with recording technology as accesible as it is and the internet making practically everything marketable, I would say every show of any signficance should get a recording.

Right now there are very few cast albums from the 40s/50s/60s that have NOT come out on CD:

SING OUT SWEET LAND (Decca)
THE CONSUL (Decca)
THE SAINT OF BKEEKER STREET (RCA Victor)
NEW FACES OF 1956 (RCA Victor)
SIMPLY HEAVENLY (Columbia)
SAY DARLING (RCA Victor)
DONNYBROOK (Kapp)
LET IT RIDE (RCA Victor)
A FAMILY AFFAIR (U.A. - coming on CD from DRG soon)
BAKER STREET (M-g-M - coming on CD from DECCA in 2006)
THE GREAT WALTZ (Capitol)
ANYA (U.A.)
ILLYA DARLING (U.A.)
MAGGIE FLYNN (RCA Victor)
JIMMY (RCA Victor)
CRY FOR US ALL (Project 3)
AIN'T SUPPOSED TO DIE A NATURAL DEATH (A&M)
INNER CITY (RCA)
TO LIVE ANOTHER SUMMER... (Buddah)
DON'T BOTHER ME I CAN'T COPE (Polydor)
CANDIDE (1974 revival) (Columbia)
MY FAIR LADY (1976 revival) (Columbia)
BEATLEMANIA (Arista)
DOONSBURY
LEADER OF TEH PACK

Of course quite a few that were out on CD have been deleted: ONE TOUCH OF VENUS, LUTE SONG, ST. LOUIS WOMAN, PETER PAN (1950 Bernstein version),THREE WISHES FOR JAIMIE, WISH YOU WERE HERE, ME AND JULIET, FANNY, SILK STOCKINGS, MR WONDERFUL, HAPPY HUNTING, NEW GIRL IN TOWN, JAMAICA, WHOOP UP, JUNO,TAKE ME ALONG, SARATOGA, TENDERLOIN, WILDCAT, DO RE MI, SAIL AWAY, MILK AND HONEY, KWAMINA, MR PRESIDENT, LITTLE ME, JENNIE, THE GIRL WHO CAME TO SUPPER, HIGH SPIRITS, GOLDEN BOY, HALF A SIXPENCE, WALKING HAPPY, HENRY SWEET HENRY, DARLING OF THE DAY, ZORBA, CENTERBURY TALES, COCO, PURLIE, MINNIE'S BOYS, SUGAR, OVER HERE, THE MAGIC SHOW, GOODTIME CHARLEY, HELLO DOLLY (PEARL BAILEY CAST), THE GRAND TOUR, I REMEMBER MAMA, MADWOMAN OF CENTRAL PARK WEST, SUGAR BABIES, SOPHISTICATED LADIES, WOMAN OF THE YEAR, SONGBOOK (London cast... on Broadway it was called THE MOONY SHAPIRO SONGBOOK and it was not recorded), A DOLL'S LIFE, DANCE A LITTLE CLOSER, GRIND, THE MYSTERY OF EDWIN DROOD, SWEET CHARITY (revival), CHESS, ROMANCE/ROMANCE, & LEGS DIAMOND
If you see any of these grab them while you can.

DOes Decca Broadway have the rights to DON'T BOTHER ME...? I recall reading somehwere that while they got some Polydor titles others (GREASE for example) they do not control.

Maybe drop Brian Druteman a line and ask about any plans for it.

---

JIMMY and INNER CITY are both on the list.

Both of these virtually went into release in the cutout bins. (I have NEVER seen a copy of INNER CITY without teh cover clipped. Same with SUGAR!)

But if CLOWNAROUND can come out on CD anythging is possible!

Actually FRC2, I left a couple of messages to Brian at the old Decca Broadway board. Didn't seem much interested. Pity.
