There's a good chance that "The Plastic Alligator" was not recorded. In those days, it was common for the jacket and gatefold, if there was one, with everything, including the song list, to be prepared and ready for LPs to put inside before the recording was even made. This is why several cast recordings of the period list songs that were not recorded. I'm not sure but it may be that all the recordings on which this happened were Columbias.
Re Anya: This is a different case. I would think that the two songs listed were recorded. For starters, there are those timings. And it was recorded early, possibly before previews began. If you scroll down to the Trivia & History notes on the linked page, you'll see some info on this. |
