Ghostlight Records has released a newly remastered vinyl edition of the In the Heights cast album. The special 10th anniversary 3-LP box set, exclusively available through Barnes & Noble, includes a liner note from Tony-winning Heights and Hamilton director Thomas Kail, a booklet with the album's complete lyrics, and a digital download code.
The new release was originally announced by the show's composer and star Lin-Manuel Miranda on Twitter.
In the Heights joins a growing roster of Broadway albums seeing new vinyl pressings, including Miranda's current Broadway hit Hamilton, Hello, Dolly!, Dear Evan Hansen, SpongeBob SquarePants, and Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812.
In the Heights marked the Tony-, Grammy-, and Pulitzer-winning Miranda's Broadway debut as both a writer and performer. Miranda led the cast as Usnavi alongside a company that included fellow Hamilton alums Mandy Gonzalez, Christopher Jackson, Karen Olivo, and Seth Stewart, as well as Priscilla Lopez, Robin de Jesús, Janet Dacal, Andréa Burns, and Olga Merediz. The show won four 2008 Tony Awards including Best Musical.
The show's cast recording, originally released June 2008, debuted at number one on Billboard's Cast Albums chart and number 82 on the Billboard 200. The album was produced by Kurt Deutsch and Andrés Levin for Ghostlight Records and was mastered by Tom Coyne.
