With Easter Weekend upon us, I took on the 2011 Godspell revival recording and honestly, it made me appreciate the show more than I expected.

This week in my cast recording series, I took on The Addams Family original Broadway cast album. Despite this show’s massive popularity in schools and colleges, it has never quite been my thing. But let’s give it another shot.

I’m starting a new series where I listen to cast recordings track by track, hand out a few totally subjective awards, and decide whether they still slap today. First up: The Phantom of the Opera original London cast recording.
