When I'm trying to sell so many rare London recordings, the question is why is the Dress Circle website still down? #patience

Judging by the banner ads, I'd say yes, this site is used to sell things. :)

As Jazz Singer star Neil Diamond sang... "Hello Again."

Since I haven't posted in almost two months, and holiday gift buying season is right around the corner, I thought I'd give my listings a bump:

I want these so badly, but being a 17 year old working at subway I can't afford them.


Theatre is my life. No one can take that away from me.

That's funny; I'm selling my collection so I can afford to eat at Subway! It's like The Gift of the Magi.

#60The rent is due... Rock Bottom Prices!
Posted: 12/4/12 at 11:46am

I have just lowered the price on 3 of the 4 remaining discs. Considering the rarity, these are crazy low prices:

A reminder that even though The Good Companions is listed in the LP category it is, in fact, the CD. You will see that this is noted in the Seller Information.

As always, thanks for looking!

Next to the Judi Dench recording of A Little Night Music, the Original London Company of Spend, Spend, Spend is one of the rarest of all cast albums. I thought it would be one of the first to go, but here it is. Proof that you never can tell!

Back when I was doing "Disc of the Day," I wrote the following upthread:

Notably, Spend Spend Spend won the Evening Standard Theatre Awards, Critics' Circle Award and Barclays Theatre Award for Best Musical. It was also nominated for an Olivier Award as Best New Musical, but like The Lion King & Mamma Mia!, famously lost to Honk!

It was nominated for a total of seven Olivier Awards and won for Best Actress in a Musical. The great Barbara Dickson (who stars as Viv and is well-known for Evita, Chess and Blood Brothers) won against competition which included Rachel Leskovac who played Young Viv.

Adding to the collectibility of this disc is the fact that it never received a full distribution. It was only available at the theatre and through mail-order (I'd imagine Dress Circle acquired some copies too).

My Amazon listing for this album:

http://www.amazon.com/Spend-Legend-Nicholson-Original-Company/dp/B009219GI0/ref=?ie=UTF8&m=A2CBRI5F6XRI96

Barbara Dickson sings The Scars of Love:

Clips from Spend Spend Spend plus Michael Ball presenting Barbara Dickson with her Olivier Award live onstage following a performance. Imagine if the Tonys were presented this way...

If you don't buy it from me, buy it from someone because the one copy listed on Amazon.co.uk is listed at £850.00! Crazy!!!

#62Adding Discs... (The Beautiful Game Promo, Reba in Annie Get Your Gun)
Posted: 12/19/12 at 6:31pm

How did this thread get 75,590 views? Wow!

Hi all-

I just added the promo for The Beautiful Game. It is listed as a collectible under the OLC, but as noted in the listing:

IMPORTANT NOTE: This is not the pictured original cast recording, but as stated on the cardboard case, "This special limited edition CD includes a selection of songs from The Beautiful Game and an exclusive interview in which David Frost talks to Andrew Lloyd Webber and Ben Elton about their new musical." The discs contains 9 tracks and runs approximately 37.5 minutes. Numbers are a mix of demos and recordings from the workshop.

In a couple of minutes, I'll also be listing the two song promo of Reba singing You Can't Get A Man With A Gun and, one of my favorite songs, I Got Lost In His Arms.

The link in my original post will take you there!

#63REBA!
Posted: 12/19/12 at 9:27pm

Sorry it took me so long to get Reba listed. Amazon was being temperamental. Item is listed with the following IMPORTANT NOTE: "This is NOT the item pictured/listed, but it is the exceedingly rare two song promo CD of Reba McEntire singing You Can't Get A Man With A Gun and I Got Lost in His Arms. The CD runs approximately 8.2 minutes. Cardboard holder shows some signs of wear but is in relatively good condition. Free upgrade to First Class shipping!"
