You know, every time I think I know what I'm talking about it's a sure sign that I don't, but I finally got this thing clear. Thanks to everyone for the corrections! There is the original cast concept album, that's the one that I have on vinyl...the one that became a hit with Gillan and Head; then there is the original Broadway cast album with Ben Vareen and Jeff Fenholt, followed by the original London West End album with Paul Nichols and finally the sound track to the film. The re-mastered cd, the one I wish to compare, is indeed of the original cast concept album....Yiiiipee!!! I have a lot of cd's that are better in most ways to the record, but I also have a lot of cd's that can't begin to compare to the original vinyl. We'll see if the fidelity and the surround images improve with the update in tech.
Thanks Again,
Dwight
