Well, you've read the notes, the notes felt like the notes, and now it is time for you to post until the cows come home - they were going to come home on a Monday, but it felt like a Tuesday and they got confused.

And the word of the day is: MARMOREAL!

I don't like going back to work after having a Monday off. I'd much rather have Friday off for the three-day weekend, but that's just me.

And now, to bed.

TOD:

I think it would have to be My Fair Lady/

It was still fresh and new and the excitement of the opening night was still evident

From yesterday:

Ben posted the link for the Archies Sugar, Sugar.

If you think about it the show was ahead of its time. Long before MTV and their music videos.

Finally gave in and joined Facebook. My friend told me I was on it. For the life of me I couldn't remember joining and finally figured out that I must have responded to a friends request to join and never did anything about it.

I've already reconnected with two old friends and one new one who knows BK and now lives in Florida. He's been on several of BK recordings.

And I decided to go through my old phone books to see who else I could see if they were out there and found a DR name in my book and forgot that I knew him by Francis all those years ago!

it will be nice to see if how many will respond to my requests

I woke up rather abruptly this morning

I had a nightmare (or an early morning-mare) Can't remember the last time I had one of those!

It involved a German Shepherd being hit by a car, Would like to know where that came from or any of the other people who populated my dream that I have never met.

Michael · « **Reply #8 on:** September 08, 2009, 04:18:32 AM »

Have to go for blood test today.

I'm back at the office after a nice weekend on Long Island.

I have an appointment for a physical this morning at 11:30.

I have a meeting at the Rockefeller Foundation on Thursday from 3-5.

I'm still working on the Otto Bremer Foundation.

That is all.

TOD: I guess it would have to be the original cast recording of FOLLIES. What a score, and what an original cast!

That would be my answer, too, but I'd also like to have been there as the cast was told about the cuts being made to their songs, how some songs weren't going to be recorded at all, and see the various reactions. I'd also like to have seen the expressions on the faces of the creators as their work was truncated for the recording.

Good morning!

Not quite as cool this morning as the last week, but it was still nice. Mid-80s for the high today. OK, summer. I'm ready for you to leave NOW!

Matt H. · « **Reply #14 on:** September 08, 2009, 05:44:42 AM »

The cloest to a normal night of sleep that I've had in two months. It was 7 hours (though the last hour was kind of restless). And I feel ever so much better this morning. I haven't even had the hand cramps in my right hand that I have endured the last week or so. I am very eager to tell this good news to my therapist today. COuld this be my last visit? I truly hope so!

Matt H. · « **Reply #15 on:** September 08, 2009, 05:47:39 AM »

I am also patiently waiting the arrival of the UPS man since I have a sneaking suspicion that he's going to bring a mountain of review items for me today. Right now, I have only THE COMPLETE MONTERY POP FESTIVAL on Criterion Blu-ray, but I'm not ready to start on those discs.

If the Paramount TV box sets come, I'll start on GHOST WHISPERER. If the Disney kung fu Blu-rays come, I'll start with HERO. If they all come, I'll do whatever comes out first (which I think is HERO and its three follow-ups).

Good morning, all! I slept very well, even with some strange dreams, and awoke at 7:20am, only to go back to bed for another hour. I am hoping I hear from George today about these damned bookcases and possibly doing the work today or tomorrow.

I may need to run to City Center today to pick up a score for FINIAN'S RAINBOW, and I'll know that soon. Beyond that, I've got OH BOY! here and some BABES IN TOYLAND work down at Toyland, so I've got things to do.

TOD: The OBC for CANDIDE, 1956. I've always wondered if any other music was recorded at the time. I still wish Goddard Lieberson had given the recording two lps so we could have had the rest of the score committed to disc by the original cast.

TOD: The commercial recording session that Orson Welles walked out on.

I don't recall the product, but I've heard the tape. Anything that Welles did fascinates me.

TOD:

With this week's release of the remastered Beatles collection already on my mind, I think I would choose to be at the recording sessions for either SGT PEPPER'S LONELY HEARTS CLUB BAND or The White Album.

Matt H. · « **Reply #19 on:** September 08, 2009, 06:27:34 AM »

Guess I'll head downstairs now and await (a) UPS man, (b) 11 a.m. leave time for my therapy appointment, (c) lunch with best friend John.

Thanks for the Travel Vibes.

Tuesday morning greetings! I'll be away much of today, taking my mother shopping.

TOD - Having been briefly in the Recorded Books, Inc. studio, I'd like to have been there to watch Jim Dale record the Harry Potter audiobooks or to watch John McDonough record the Mitford books. Richard and I get such a kick out of listening to them do the various voices, especially when John does the gum-cracking, capri-pants-wearing hairdresser, Fancy Skinner. We also love it when he sings the hymns that Father Tim has selected for the various services at Lord's Chapel.

Guilty Pleasure Department: Betsy and I stayed up until midnight last night watching a show I stumbled across on A&E--Hoarders. Has anyone here seen it? The best part? Betsy, who has shall we say a....."clutter" problem immediately went out and began madly cleaning the kitchen afterwards.

Happy Anniversary yesterday to DR LAURA and her husband!

The party sounds delightful.

MINSKY'S & GAILY GAILY arrived at my house on Friday. Lovely to have it. MINSKY's had been on one of the cable services the night before....I remember having - still have - the GAILY GAILY LP - the main title song "Tomorrow Is My Friend' has always been a favorite song of mine. And Beau Bridges is....Beau Bridges - and he was my favorite, until Jeff Bridges came along.

I am afraid to look. I fear it may hit a little too close to home.
