This is not the question. Chita was allowed to make a cast recording before Williams was. Beanie was not. This is an entirely different situation. As if the Mary Martin recording of Dolly was the first one, and there was never a Carol Channing recording.

Huh? Please re-read Zelgo's post. I was responding to this statement: "I think only Spider Woman's vocals were replaced, but everything else remained the same."

Zelgo has already acknowledged that this statement was incorrect.

Sorry. I wasn't reading the thread in order.

I actually spoke to the number of transpositions made on the 2nd recording, so yes, it was all newly recorded. Also, the Broadway orchestra is tighter (and the trumpet section has a better time with the "Where You Are" dance break).

No problem. I tried to be as careful as possible with my wording, but despite several edits I still mistyped "revival" instead of "replacement".

Regarding the various Blood Brothers recordings, there was never an OBC album, but three of the replacement leads -- Petula Clark, David Cassidy, and Shaun Cassidy -- made a comprehensive album of the score in 1995 some time after leaving the show. It was called "The International Recording."

Ironically also in 1995 three of the original Broadway leads -- Stephanie Lawrence, Warwick Evans, and Mark Hutchinson -- while apparently in a London revival of the show, made another cast recording of the score under the First Night label. It was called simply "London Cast."
