Yes there is. But it has very limited availability. Look hard.

I got my copy from Best Buy (It was only $8.99) and in addition to the bonus DVD, autographed libretto, hologram cover and bonus CD of Elton John performing the entire score, it came with a second bonus CD of the "Good Vibrations" cast album! What a treat it was to hear that glorious recording at last.
Sadly I went to pick up a copy for a friend's christmas gift and was told it was no longer available. Sure glad I got one!
It's so cool that they got Cyndi Lauper to record some tracks too.
My church is doing this production this spring. I'm really excited!
my copy has Heather headley and adam pascal singing all the songs.

Cyndi was on your CD? She wasn't on mine!
::Yankee calls Sh-k-Boom::
Sh-k-boom is the label on your CD? Mine is Nonesuch.
I smell something fishy going on here.
Has anyone seen my Carrie, The Musical dvd?
I'll trade you my OBC Dreamgirls DVD. it's the one where Jennifer Holiday fell flat on her face off the chair just before her final note of "and I'm telling you"
I have to be honest, my Carrie dvd is only act II.
Didn't the comedians of this board already do this on another thread?

My copy has Idina and Kristen singing "Sail Away"! I hear they are going to do the National Tour with Idina as Lestat and Kristen as Claudia.

The sarcasm is getting fresher and sharper with every new post!
actually I heard Idina was doing both roles.

Aaaw, for a second I had actually hoped....
yet it would really fit my collection next to my "In my Life" dvd
As hysterical as this post is, Bryan you should know that it hasn't been released, so you can quit running around looking for it. It was recorded and I assume will one day surface. I don't know why they don't release it through iTunes or something, so they don't have to actually make CDs that will probably never move, but who knows.
Also look on eBay, the link below has someone who is selling a demo CD.
And I for one, would enjoy a Lennon CD.
eBay Lestat
You know, since so many people have this CD (I myself have 3 copies) how has it not hit the chart yet?

I know! It should have knocked Wicked off at least once by now!
Coincidentaly, my label is RCA Victor and includes a third disc with Elton John's dream replacment cast. Harvey wants more!!!!!!!!
The Lansbury tracks are surprisingly solid.
I'm so excited the national tour is coming to my village hall!
I'm a bit peeved though- the tickets are $5 each! Broadway prices these days!

Is there any student rush, devo, to cut down this immorally high ticket price??
Edit:
@Lorelei: It's just that illegal b******gs rarely hit the charts *lol*

There is a lottery, Franklin, but only for the first 1700 people each day, so what are the chances?
Have you guys discovered the hidden track on the WalMart special edition set yet? 20 seconds after track 18 on disc 2 you get to hear an authentic 35 second long sound clip of Warner Brothers flushing 15 million dollars down the toilet.
On a serious note, Bryan my friend, you are a victim of bad timing. The closing notice for Lestat was posted one day after the big recording session with the band. This is why there probably won't be an itunes release any time soon. There is no rough mix, there aren't even vocal fixes done on this thing. It's just a bunch of raw tracks sitting on a hard drive in a closet somewhere. If the show had closed one week later there probably would be a bootleg version of the album somewhere online. I strongly doubt anyone involved feels like spending one more dime on it.
But please feel free to ask about it again, this has been fun.

Oh my.. I must've got the wrong disc, because that's all I hear!
FW, sounds like you've got yourself a collector's item there.
