As the 'top secret' (damn those producers) Bat musical seems to be slipping further away (2010 at the earliest?), just wondering whether Jim/Rink should resurrect 'The Dream Engine' as an interim project (ie through 2009)?
I would suggest they have enough produced & mixed tracks to get an album mastered & pressed really quickly, and it could be the first decent Ravenous release.
Keep 'Children' & 'Body' on the album with the tag 'from the forthcoming Bat Out Of Hell musical'. Can't do any harm?
Jim could do an interview (in half a day) for an electronic press kit (similar to 'Making of Bat 3'), so as not to effect his work (too much) on the musical, and then the band could do some sort of tour in US & Europe.
Great opportunity to get Jim's name back out there, and they may even have a big hit single?
Even if the album flops I don't think it would have a detrimental effect on the musical, as I don't think many people would notice (if it flops).
If anything the album would be a good showcase for more established artists to cherry pick from?
Hmmmmm, I'm either talking bollocks or in need of a new Steinman fix.
