| But of course a new recording is never guaranteed. I still think it's a shame they never did one of the (multi Tony-winning) original Broadway Falsettos, instead just repackaging the off-Broadway recordings of each piece as a "new" double CD. Even though by that time the material had changed a good deal. It would have been nice to get an official record of that cast and those changes at the time. | |

| I'm pretty happy with the 2 off-Broadway cast recordings which were combined into a unit. As much as I love the show itself as seen on stage, I rarely listen to the show's recording, but that's just me. Nevertheless, I prefer the original set of recordings to that of the '16 revival. I thought the '19 tour of the revival was better cast and acted than the '16 Broadway version. My biggest regret is the lack of a cast recording for the Broadway or touring productions of James Joyce's The Dead. It was my favorite new musical that season and I thought the score (sung by that incredible cast) was haunting. I was told that 2 different labels were in negotiations for respectively the Broadway and tour productions, but they couldn't close the deal for either. The cast album of the Pittsburgh Irish & Classical Theatre production was an acceptable substitute, but I really miss hearing the renditions of Howes, Nixon, Brown or Prince, Ripley, Skinner, Walken or Bogardus, Spinella, and the others. |
