Cast recordings have been a staple of Broadway musicals for more than 80 years, but why do some endure with legions of fans while others quickly slip into obscurity? Why do we even like the albums we like?Join host Alex Asp each episode as he and a guest dive into one of the cast albums from a Broadway season. This time, we're going back to the 1975-76 season for legends like Chicago, Pacific Overtures, and A Chorus Line (plus several that many people have never heard of).The Little Things You Hear Together uses the lenses of music composition, performances, storytelling, and more to explore what an album can offer us as listeners. Just for fun, we score and rank the albums along the way to add some drama. Come along and enjoy the ride!
