You absolute legend. May your theatre visits never appear on the 'Bad behaviour' thread. May you never see an understudy ever again. May your seats forever be upgraded. Just pre-ordered it! Thank you so much for the nod! Damm you Barbara Dickson! There was me hoping to make some money from my copy when times are hard, now no one will want to pay inflated prices for it. I will have to rely on my signed poster from Paraside Found now to make my fortune. Well it's super limited too and apparently not well-known, so I doubt it will curb demand that much. Buy a copy of the 4-CD-Set and have another collector's item a few years down the road  I was actually tempted, since I LOVE Barbara Dickson (she was my first Mrs Johnstone and made me cry so much, damn her) but since I have two out of four CDs, I think it's not worth the expense. |

I have Andrew Lloyd Webber's "Jeeves" in vinyl. It isn't worth much these days.

Visited a local(ish) record shops today and found some great Musical Theatre records there. He had so many and all at a bargain price. Will do some research and return to buy more very soon. Got Evita x 2, West Side Story (Movie), Oliver OLC, Cats OLC, Hair (London) and Mame (Ange-Lans).
Anyone want me to keep an eye out for anything rare there?

Re Spend Spend Spend. I recently picked up a copy from Amazon for £10 so its value has obviously fallen!

I have the Spend Spend Spend CD as well, though I read somewhere that it was going to be reissued? Same with Blondel.
I have a South African cast recording of Tell Me On a Sunday with Kate Normington, which was never officially released, I think.
And Betty Buckley's New Ways to Dream Sunset Blvd CD, and a promo 3 track CD of the US National Tour of Sunset Blvd with Linda Balgord with Ron Boomer.
I have a lot more rarities in souvenir brochures and old bootlegs than CDs.

It was a very limited release, only available in the theatre and at Dress Circle at the time? I do have it and it would be one of those I'd be willing to flog if the price is right since I haven't touched the CD (like most of my CDs) in years. The only "super rarity" I'm not willing to part with is the London Cast Recording of Children of Eden. It came out around the time I first got into musicals and I LOVED it and played it often. So it's a memory I want to hold on (never mind the wear and tear of the actual CD). I do have an obscure maxi-single (vinyl) of Frances Ruffelle singing "Stranger to the Rain" though, wonder if that's worth anything. Do kids today even know what a maxi single is?  I have the rare (playable) Children of Eden too! I also owned a vinyl single of Frances Ruffelle singing On My Own, but a completely different version form the one in the show. Had drums... I have tried to listen to it on Youtube to no avail. Anyone else remember that? Or still have it?! I also have a playable CD of Children Of Eden plus a CD single with Frances Ruffelle and Shezawe Powell (I think that was her name, she played Eve) and she also signed it. |
