UNSEALED

A stage musical may fail for any number of reasons, but when it does, it takes everything -- the actors' performances, the choreography, the sets, the songs -- with it, and in the case of the music, that has meant, over the years, quite a body of good show tunes that went unrecorded. Producer Bruce Kimmel aimed to rescue some of that music; this compilation presents the first recordings of 18 songs from flop musicals of the 1960s to the 1990s.
