The new cast recording of Pippin appears to have exit music at the end of the CD.

1. Is it the exit music?
2. Has this been done before? I have close to 1000 OCR and don't recall ever hearing this.

I don't know about exit music on the PIPPIN recording, but several cast recordings (often revivals) include exit music.

Some recent ones that come to mind:

How to Succeed.... 2011
Cinderella 2013

Pippin provides 4 "sing along" tracks at the end:

Corner of the Sky
Simple Joys
Kind of Woman
Extraordinary

Lots of them have exit music.
I always find it weird when it is included, but whatever. Why not, if they want to pay for the time?!

Personally, I love it when the bow music at least is included. It is always a treat when they add the exit music as well. My biggest pet peeve is when overtures go unrecorded....

I don't think the new Pippin recording had Exit Music. Sing-A-Long tracks, yes. lol. The first one that came to mind with Exit Music is the 2008 Gypsy recording with Patti LuPone. There are plenty of others, though.

What a lovely idea! I find the older I get the more likely I am to stay in the theater for every, single note.

I got my 2008 Gypsy CD at the theatre when I saw the show and the last track (except for the cut songs from the original production) is Rose's Turn, but last year I found Laura Benanti's final, post-Rose's Turn scene with Patti and the music that played as the curtain fell, as a professionally recorded track on tumblr. I wonder why they recorded it and didn't put it on the final CD...

I don't think there was enough room on the disc, so they released the following tracks on a bonus disc only available through Barnes and Noble.

Disc 2
1 Let Me Entertain You (scene, dialogue and underscoring) (0:48 )
2 Miss Crachitt (dialogue lines, scenes) (0:51 )
3 All I Need Is the Girl (musical scene change music) (0:21 )
4 Entr'acte (2:48 )
5 You Gotta Get a Gimmick (musical scene change music) (0:17)
6 The Strip (musical scene change music) (0:18 )
7 Act 2 Finale (entire full scene) (2:33)
8 Exit Music (3:34)

I think the Thoroughly Modern Millie OBC also has exit music. I like when it's included, but I always want the whole show recorded as well, so there's that.

Some of the best exit music ever can be found on the OBC of CITY OF ANGELS.

I personally love the bows from the 1999 Revival of YOU'RE A GOOD MAN, CHARLIE BROWN


Bows


Words don't deserve that kind of malarkey. They're innocent, neutral, precise, standing for this, describing that, meaning the other, so if you look after them you can build bridges across incomprehension and chaos. But when they get their corners knocked off, they're no good anymore…I don't think writers are sacred, but words are. They deserve respect. If you get the right ones in the right order, you can nudge the world a little.

Didn't they record the Beauty and the Beast cast album BEFORE they added the overture?

"The Best Little Whorehouse Goes Public" has the Exit Music, which is a terrific Big Band arrangement of "Change In Me". It's up there with the "City Of Angels" track linked above. "Two Gentlemen of Verona" also has the Exit Music, a very fun version of "Where's North".

"Ragtime's final track is "Bows""

Assuming you are talking about the double disc recording that final track is not the bows. It's a symphonic suite.

I believe they did, but that doesn't excuse the London cast recording, the Australian cast recording and the dozens of foreign language cast recordings that also chose let the Overture go unrecorded. It's a short Overture, but it's fun and I love how it sieges right into the Prologue. They should have preserved it.

The late 90's London "Lady In The Dark" includes the exit music, as well as the musical version of "Lend Me A Tenor," "The Goodbye Girl" and "Dessa Rose." All four are quite lovely, especially "Lady In The Dark," but I couldn't find a link.

I'm pretty sure all the extra show material on the 2008 Gypsy could have fit on one disc, but all of the cut numbers wouldn't have fit, so they opted for the cut numbers on the standard release.

Scottsboro Boys has a track entitled "Exit Music"

Well, that was silly and lazy. Just read the back of the case. Listening to the CD in my car. Never imagined sing along tracks.
