The sets of excerpts by members of the original casts of The Cradle Will Rock and No for an Answer, with Blitzstein at the piano, were reissued on LP on several labels and on CD with Bernstein's first recording of Airborne Symphony on Pearl CD GERS 0009 (out of print). The 1964 revival of The Cradle, directed by Howard da Silva from the original cast, was recorded on MGM 54289 OC (two LPs, out of print), while the 1983 revival by The Acting Company, directed by John Houseman, the work's original producer, is available on CD from Jay Records, CD JAY 1300.
