There will also be a special edition with a DVD but only 19 tracks in the CD (without karaoke tracks). However, this special edition will be sold in some of Shiki's theaters or webshop only, rnrnInformation about the special edition on webshop:rnhttp://gdsk.jp/shop/goods/goods.aspx?goods=02346-00

I've just compared these two recordings and they are most definitely different, with different solo vocals if not backing tracks or chorus. There are different vocal inflections, elongations of syllables etc. Whether they are different takes or a different cast I don't know but it's most definitely a different recording.

I wrote to Disney Theatrical in January 2012 and they confirmed that this is indeed a new recording of The Lion King. I hope this helps.

The link of disny.co.jp I provided above still works, Just delete the "rnrn" at the end (I don't know why it happend when I copy-past the link). If you can read Japanese, you can find the cast information of THIS NEW RECORDING on that page, which is not the same as the TRUE original Tokyo cast recording.

It seems that the limited version(CD +DVD) of this recording i added was deleted.......... However, thank God finally other guys could support the idea this IS a new recording. Thank you both.

Oh, I found the CD+DVD version was moved to the original Tokyo cast recording. Please move it back to the 2011 Tokyo Cast as it should be.
