As you may know, Of Thee I Sing was the first musical to win a Pulitzer Prize as "best play." I've read the script, and it's terrific, but the jokes are extremely dated now, and if it were staged, it would as a reminder of times gone by. The music by those incomparable brothers is great.
I don't know if the original cast was ever recorded, but here's a version of "Wintergreen for President":
