Blue Pear Records
Blue Pear Records was a semi-fictitious record label based in Longwood, Florida, which is best known for re-issuing rare cast recordings of obscure Broadway and off-Broadway musicals in the mid-1980s. The lack of production credits and other helpful identifying information on the LP sleeves has generally led to the assumption that they are bootleg recordings.
==Origins==
The first LP to be released by Blue Pear Records, dating back to 1975, was not actually a theatre-related recording but, rather, an anthology of audio bloopers from the third season of ''Star Trek''. Between the cancellation of the TV series in 1969 and the release of the first motion picture adaptation in 1979, there was a huge groundswell of interest in ''Star Trek'', and a consequent demand for related media. Outtakes and bloopers, which had survived from the annual 'gag reels' prepared for the amusement of the original cast and crew, became popular when they were screened at fan conventions in the early 1970s by Gene Roddenberry himself. However, only the gag reels from the first and second series were made available in this way, while bloopers from the third and final series remained something of a Holy Grail for fans of the show.
As documented on the liner notes for the Blue Pear LP, a copy of the third season bloopers was found on a set of reel-to-reel audio tapes that were alleged to have been discovered in a trash can at Paramount Studios in Hollywood. The person who found the tapes subsequently pressed them onto a vinyl LP with the title ''Trek Bloopers: Rare Third Season Bloopers Never Heard Before'', which was issued under the label name Blue Pear – an obvious pun on the word "blooper". In an era before home video recorders (not to mention the internet), the Blue Pear recording of ''Trek Bloopers'' remained highly sought-after by Trekkies for some time. The LP cover featured a simplistic caricature of Leonard Nimoy as Spock (credited to an artist with the initials MDL), while the reverse had a track list and perfunctory liner notes. Along the bottom was the name of the record label, a small (trademarked) logo depicting a cluster of blue pears, and the rather unhelpful contact address of Longwood, Florida.
