Update on some of Skip's shows

Amazon listing for Skip's (and Ellen's and Tom's) show HERRINGBONE - starring BD Wong and directed by Roger Rees - which was released by Yellow Sound Label on December 2.

I think this Amazon link should work:

And HERRINGBONE was named one of 2014's Top Ten Cast Albums by Talkin Broadway in its Sound Advice column.

Tony Award-Winner BD WONG makes his solo CD debut in a unique concert recording of the demanding one man, Off-Broadway musical HERRINGBONE, in which Wong plays 12 characters who sing 14 songs. It was recorded live at a special event for Dixon Place in New York City. This is also the first recording of this marvelously spooky show by Skip Kennon (music), Ellen Fitzhugh (lyrics), & Tom Cone (book, based upon his play). In two acts, it was recorded with a live audience, and is presented in its entirety in a two CD digipak featuring photos from the production.
