"... the score of Skyscraper is one of the weakest to ever get an OBC recording. ..."


Well, I disagree. Though the melodies are stronger than the lyrics, I very much like the opening number "An Occasional Flight of Fancy," as well as "Everybody Has The Right To Be Wrong," and the big 11:00 number/ballad "I'll Only Miss Her When I think Of Her" (which was covered by many pop artists in its day, as I recall.) This score is okay-to-good, in my book.

But the cast recording is only something like 35-minutes long! Which is maybe some kind of a record for brevity among "relatively complete" original Broadway cast albums recorded in relatively modern times.
