Yes, he did. Wagner released "Dancing In the Moonlight," a CD that he sold through B&B's web site and at his singing appearances. The CD featured several of the songs he sang on B&B, including the title track. He doesn't have a lot of time for music with his work on B&B, but he still does a handful of gigs a year, including coming to one of the casinos in Connecticut at least once a year.

Also from B&B:

Ronn Moss released a CD in 2006 called UNCOVERED and did some touring to promote it, and I think he's working on a new CD with PLAYER now. Baby Come Back, however, is still his main claim to musical fame.

As someone mentioned, Thorne #2 Jeff Trachta sang with Bobbie Eakes on the show. They released a few CDs in the 90s during the height of the Thorne/Macy story and even did a concert in Rotterdam that was worked into the story on B&B. Trachta also played Danny Zuko in GREASE on Broadway in 1996 (which was also worked into the show), and he is currently doing a one man show that went from Vegas to Reno to Palm Springs that I think includes some music in it.

John McCook has a background in musical theater. I think Darlene Conley had some musical theater experience as well, since she and McCook appeared as part of that Rotterdam concert headlined by Eakes and Trachta.

Winsor Harmon released a country CD a few years ago, but he never sang on B&B.

Kyle Lowder and Mackenzie Mauzy both sang and that was worked into the Rick/Phoebe story when KL came to B&B.

Well he sang with Nadia Bjorlin way before that on DAYS. But Kyle Lowder is a trained opera/classical singer even before he started acting. To quote his bio: Kyle was accepted into the prestigious All-State Choir, consisting of the top 280 rated singers in the state of New York. He received a perfect rating of 100

Btw. Adding Nadia Bjorlin to this list. She's trained in opera as well.

Oh, and Arianne Zuker sang on a soundtrack for DAYS.

Bryan Dattilo recorded some CD's a while ago.

Peter Noone,former lead singer of 60's Brit group Herman's Hermits was on ATWT during the 'Scotland' storyline.

John Wesley Shipp recorded an album during the height of his popularity as Kelly on GL in the early 80's

Jane Badler(Melinda OLTL Natalie TD Meredith FC) recently released a CD in Australia where she has lived for many years.

I think Wally Kurth(Justin DOOL Ned GH)also recorded a CD

    • Six minutes into watching today's episode, and there's Joey...... Ugh!!
    • We have to deal with more Tide and Febreeze - that’s really what’s paying the bills for the show, so it’s a necessary evil. 
    • It is interesting that Ann lasts as long as she does as a character on the show. I assume the show chose not to renew her contract, but I don't know for certain. I also believe Millette Alexander's contract wasn't renewed after she last appeared at Christmas in 1982. Looking back, I really wish that they had ended up pairing Sara and Mike Bauer versus Sara and Adam. Sara and Mike were already good friends, and it would have been an interesting twist in 1978 if Sara and Mike had a fling after Dean Blackwell's death, Sara turning to Mike for comfort after Dean's death. Mike and Sara certainly could have been a tentpole couple moving forward, unlike Mike and Elizabeth.
    • I wish they’d inject some of Colby’s real life energy, and yes, fashion sense, into Kat. 
    • Like I've said before, I think the show is often a very strange (and admittedly fascinating to me) mix of very old-fashioned, purple dialogue and classic soap opera structural elements - right down to the insanely blatant, virally successful product placement for P&G - mixed with other dialogue or material that tries desperately to be current and hip. One moment it will remind me of very hokey old B&B stuff or expository stuff out of the '60s, and the other it'll look and sound like the Prospect Park soaps. Some of the hipper dialogue or material (Chelsea's sexuality, etc.) works for me, others are pure cringe. Same with the classical stuff, like the characters (particularly the elders) gathering around to recap plot, make grand pronouncements about each other or their children/family, or make grave portents of the future. Then there's the whole piano thing lol. It's a weird mix, but not one I'm mad about atm so much as mystified by. As a longtime soap fan it is very compelling to examine even when parts of it really don't work, because so much of BTG feels both very old and very new at the same time. I do think they need to dump the Bell (or maybe more accurately Brad Bell) school of dialogue MVJ has been working from for years, and bring in more of the naturalistic GH house style she and Guza worked from in the '90s and 2000s. If that means dumping a lot of the dialogue people so be it (I do think some are good). OTOH the Bell style seems to work for a lot of the social media and probably offline audience that isn't me, so who's to say. I don't think Dani is at all in the latter-day Carly though. She's not on quite as much, and she's far from always right. I do think they are definitely playing it down the middle with the Duprees while waiting to reveal more, but I do think they want you to see them both ways or divide the audience on who they are. Which seems to have succeeded because some people are baffled.
    • Might this show be a black stereotype? Angry crazy acting women like Dani and Leslie. Cheating punk men like Bill and Ted who didn't keep it in their pants. Angry black men like Martin. Promiscuous black man wanting the white girl. Dirty black cops. And so on?

    • That would require Dani to think about someone/something other than herself.. and we all know Dani only thinks about Dani.  Including her butting into Nicole's business instead of just being a supportive sister.
