I am a firm believer in serendipity- all the random pieces coming together in one wonderful moment, when suddenly you see what their purpose was all along.

Kristin Chenoweth could barely control a Great Dane she trotted onto the stage. "Great, they gave me a dog that weighs five times what I do", she quipped. For the record, she weighs 93 pounds, and has a Maltese.

Sorry folks. This thread exists hundreds of times over the last few years. Use the search feature to find many, many suggestions on original cast recordings to add to your collection. Just go back a week or two.
"Soundtracks" refers to filmmovie scores/soundtracks
"Orignial Cast" refers musical recordings.
Locking this thread, because it's redundant.
