File:Gleev3deluxe.jpgFile:Gleemadonna.jpg

With the second half of Glee season one in full force, there’s no better time than now to preorder the next soundtrack titled Glee: The Music, Vol. 3 Showstoppers.  Two versions are up for preorder; the deluxe edition contains 20 tracks, while the standard edition has 14 tracks.  All these tunes will be performed during the remainder of this season.  Both versions will release on May 18.  Order physical copies at Amazon (standard/deluxe) or digital ones at iTunes (standard/deluxe).  Note that these soundtracks do not contain any of the Madonna songs performed during the “Power of Madonna” episode.  For those you’ll have to pick up the Glee: The Music, The Power of Madonna EP (Amazon/iTunes), available today.  Check out the track listing for all three soundtracks after the break.

Gleeks: Glee Season 1 DVD & soundtrack up for pre-sale; broadway reunion is coming

News Graphic

It looks Glee: Season 1 will be split up into two volumes, and it makes sense.  Firstly, when the 4-disc 13-episode DVD box set was made FOX had not yet renewed the show, thereby granting it 9 additional episodes.  Second, although this might sound unfair (but, in fact, it kinda is), FOX has a ton of music rights to pay for; by shipping two volumes of DVDs and soundtracks the network can recoup its money for all the rights it had to pay for over the length of the season (and gear up for Season 2 (which has not been confirmed yet, but still)).  So, in sum: Glee Season 1: Volume 1 – Road to Sectionals DVD will pack the initial 13-episode run.  (It will also include bonus material (ie. behind-the-scenes, audition tapes, performances, etc..)  The soundtrack, Glee the music Season 1: Volume 1 will include all of the main performances debuted during the first half of the season.  Look after the break for the full 18-track listing.

There will be a full season DVD released after the entire first season airs, and purchasers of Volume 1 will receive a voucher that can be applied to that full set.  Glee will be going on a haitus during the holiday season and will return just in time to make sure it finishes in mid-May during the usual TV sweeps period.  The Volume 1 DVD and CD would make great holiday gifts, giving Gleeks and non-Gleeks the chance to watch (or re-watch) the first half of the season.  Purchase the DVD and CD on Amazon and preorder the CD on iTunes.

Now on to the next bit of news.  Lea Michele’s (Rachel’s) Spring Awakening co-star Jonathan Groff will be joining the cast of Glee in the near future.  According to EW, he will be featured in “five or six episodes” and will play the lead male singer of Vocal Adrenaline, our Glee club’s arch-nemisis and biggest competition.  Glee’s co-creator Ryan Murphy calls him a “miva” (or “a male diva”).  I’m not really a spoiler type but I’ll give you this: EW also claims that Groff “will also serve as a potential love interest for Michele’s Rachel.”
