Well, you've read the notes, the notes were a place called home, and now it is time for you to post until the cows come home - they're currently looking for a place called home.

And the word of the day is: VOLPLANE!

That's pretty darned cool that you got the signed Sondheim book, BK! Someday, I hope to get a Sondheim autograph.

And the word of the day is: VOLPLANE!
A play by Ben Jonson, adapted as "Sly Fox" for George C Scott

This went unanswered a few days ago, so I'll try again:
Question for BK:
If memory serves, when you left Varese Sarabande you took your catalog to The Label Whose Name Can Not Be Spoken (TLWNCNBS).
With the demiise of the high-jacked TLWNCNBS, what happened to the catalog?
I ask becasue I was looking up the Cast Reording for PLAY ON and found no new producers (just off label sellers).
der Brucer
Or do I need to wait for the book?

der Brucer
I thought a "pastie" was something Gypsy wore.
I await with "eagar anticipation" ("bated breath" is on Holiday) to try the "buttered peans".
I'll leave the "Spotted DicK" jokes to thr serfs.

Re BK's notes about bottled water. It certainly has become a huge industry and it seems as if no-one can travel about without the obligatory water bottle. In the London Underground (subway) they actually have notices in the summer recommending that you don't travel unless you have water with you - as if you're about to take a dangerous trek across the desert! Mind you, the London Underground is probably hotter than the desert in the height of summer.

Morning all.
That is all.

good morning to all

Good morning, all.

It was really cold last night.
Waiting for spring and summer.
And the parade on Saturday. Good home town silly fun. :)

Off to work.

Good morning.

Good morning, all! I had a long convoluted dream that I hated to leave: I was at a concert of something I'd worked on and Sergeant Aborn, of Tams-Witmark, was there' he mentioned he had a project that he would like me to look at. Then my friend Curtis and I were producing a series of recordings of "high school musicals" for Tams-Witmark. We invaded this rehearsal space and all these associates of Curtis' were singing and playing music as we rehearsed the first musical. Then the alarm went off.
Today, I will take the proof of the vocal score to City Center and go over fixes with Joshie. It's the first day of the PIPE DREAM rehearsal, so I may stop in and say hello to Rob, Mark, and others. I'm helping him proof the new scores for the Victoria Mallory-Kurt Peterson act that Jonathan Tunick is scoring.
DR Der Brucer, I can't guarantee that I am completely correct about BK's catalogue of recordings, but I believe TLWNCNBS, when the creeps folded it, remaindered all of the CDS. When I need a promo copy, I go to Amazon.com marketplace and look for the cheapest "very good" used copy. I would never buy from them after 2001, and now that they're out of business, I feel I did my bit to help it along.
And now . . . more coffee.

DR Elmore I am also confused about your twitter problems. When you go on twitter you only see the tweets of the people you follow. But even if say you followed 500 people. Twitter even lets you put people into lists. So you can just view one category of people at a time. This is what I do. For example I follow alot of authors. I have them all in a folder called "authors". So any time I wat I can just look in that list and I see only their tweets.

The weather is mild here. But i am excited for next week when the temps are supposed to be very mild. It is supposed to be 60s to around 70. I am gonna get my bike out!

Curious-Where Do You Send The Letter?

Good Wednesday morning!
-
I was astounded to read in this morning's paper that they had 8 inches of snow at the coast yesterday.
-
I was also astounded to discover that I cannot get the 3rd CD of the new BEN HUR set out of the damned case.
-
Opening the case is easy but getting the da** disc out of the case is becoming increasingly more difficult. Is it because I'm getting old???

I seem to be getting as well the damned tweets of every person I'm following, not simply their tweets. I wouod swear everyone tweeting our E&T DR Jose, for exammple, is also sending them on to me. So, I have to say that, even if I weren't sifting through a million of "I'm at the bakery," the pornographic ones an orchestrator friend sends out thinking he's funny, as well as the others are a perfect waste of time and sense.

It doesn't help either that there seems to be no way to contact the fools running this stupid concept.

Ah, that's the rub!
And I am off to Encores!

I have asked myself that, too. Have they come up with child-proof (meaning adult-proof) CDs and DVDs?

Congrats, BK, on the book find. Naturally, I'm happy for you and only a teensy bit envious.

I used to have the address - the envelope is around here someplace.

"Ben-Hur" set...getting the 3rd disc out:
Open the back section of the jewel box ever so slightly. Insert finger between back of jewel box and the leaf on which the 3rd CD rests. Push to the left...then open the case.

Are people enoying the multi-cd release of the music from Ben-Hur?

Wednesday morning greetings! It's another bee-yoo-tee-ful day here in SW Ohio and Richard and I have a fun date set for tonight. We're going to the Dayton Art Institute auditorium for the Dayton Metro Library-sponsored appearance by Rick Steves (http://www.ricksteves.com). Dayton is a stop on his Road Trip USA and, frankly, I'm more excited about his visit than President Obama's visit last night to attend the basketball game.

By "to the left" do you mean toward the front of the case? It's not working for me. >:(
-
I just got it out! I had to squeeze the little clips that hold it in.

Now once I tape the CD back together everything will be wonderful. ;)

Yes, that is what I meant. It was a matter of not opening the case completely but jiggling those inner plastic leaves so that they would turn.
FSM has apologized for the packaging. It's the same packaging they used on an earlier set of musc from "Lassie" films, but the problems didn't crop up with that one.

You can unfollow people if you don't like their tweets. Or make a special list of the people you find worthwhile. Then you can just look at that list.
It makes it much easier to read only the tweets of interest.

I getcha now--my problem wasn't with the leaf (I did have a problem getting the first leaf open, so I know what you're talking about). The problem was the leaf was open, CD was "available," but it simply would NOT detach from its holder. I think one of the clips was broken. Once I pressed on them, I heard something "click," and now it detaches and reattaches just fine.

Twilight Time fans....."Bite the Bullet" Blu-ray starts shipping today. "Demetrius and the Gladiators" won't ship for another couple of days (or, until it arrives back from the plant).
-
I was also astounded to discover that I cannot get the 3rd CD of the new BEN HUR set out of the damned case.
Try this: Hold the hub firmly and press down on it while you lift the CD from the side. It's worked for me every time.

I'm up after nine hours of beauty sleep.

That didn't work for me. Like JMK I ended up breaking off one of the clips which solved the problem and the disc is still held properly in the tray. I think there must be minute variations in those jewel cases making it harder to get the disc out in some of them.

I am back from Encores! Joshie and I have gone through the DEAREST ENEMY vocal score, looked over Jonathan Tunick's charts for the Mallory-Peterson event and the work Joshie is doing for Jonathan's big band cocnert at Birdland next week. I have several scores to proof while I wait for te next fresh hell to roll down the pike.

I also tried holding down the hub and I was bending the CD to such an extent I thought it was going to break in half.
-
I didn't have to break one of the clips--I think it was in the wrong position somehow. Once I squeezed them, there was an audible click, not like something breaking, but like something going into its correct position.
-
der Brucer - elmore's explanation is basically correct.
After I learned the hell they put BK through, I only purchased used copies of recordings from their inventory so they would never see a cent from me! Nobody dumps on my friends.
So, BK, when are you going to get an "in" to Paramount so we can get the soundtrack of "Oh, What A Lovely War!"?
-
I'm feeling surprisingly energetic today. I'm trying to figure out what it might have been in what i ate yesterday.

My friends Ron and Patrick are tring to get me to go out to our local gay bar this Friday night.
I just don't know that I am in the mood to sit around feeling old amongst a bunch of annoying 20-somethings while dance music I don't know is blaring.
I told Ron that if he could get them to play some Bollywood music I would go.
PS: I have not been to this bar before. Last time I went to a gay bar in Salem must have been well over ten years ago, and that one closed down several years back. Even then the only guys our age were the lushes (among them, one of my ex boyfriends) who are usually drunk as a skunk.
I have, on the other hand, during these last 10 years, been to gay bars in Portland where the clientele is better, and they have naked dancers on stages.
-
I think I would rather spend my Friday evening enjoying a good (or bad) movie on television or at the theatre....I still haven't seen WE BOUGHT A ZOO.

By the way, has anyone checked out the new show GCB? I watched last Sunday's episode and enjoyed it...it was nice to see David James Elliott and Annie Potts on TV again.

I've tried to put the word out that I would buy back Haines His Way and the Sherman Brothers Album, to no avail. I know they've sold back masters to a few singers - I've told the singers what to ask for and how much to offer. I would only do the Sherman Brothers album if they had the hard drives so that I could completely remix it from scratch - as most know, the idiot who did the mix left off half the band tracks and didn't comp vocals.

My question for ASK BK day.....what do you think is the worst-sequenced Broadway Cast LP?
-
My question for ASK BK day.....what do you think is the worst-sequenced Broadway Cast LP?
Well, most of them are sequenced in show order, but I do know, for example, they moved Grapes of Roth on Promises late in the program, which I hated and put right when we reissued it. I don't like when they move stuff around on a cast album - but in the LP era sometimes it was out of necessity due to how much you could put on one side of an LP
-
I always thought it hilarious on the London cassette recording of "A Little Night Music" that they broke "In Praise of Women," so that it starts on side A and then finishes on side B.

Not that I know of, I never opted out of it. I remember having it but never noticed it was gone until people mentioned it. It's not in Chrome or Internet Explorer either. Although if a word is underlined in squiggly red and I right click on it Firefox does offer choices to fix the word or add it to the dictionary. Is that what you mean by Firefox having a spell check? Now that I read your other post I think that's it. The spell check is not on the HHW site but it's part of Firefox.

Flying causes dehydration so it is important to drink water. I tend not to when I'm flying but do force myself to. I prefer my own bottled water only because I can keep it next to me instead of needing a tray to hold the plastic cup. Recommendations are NOT to drink the tap water on a plane & airlines don't always serve bottled water, another reason to carry ones own water.

Twitter even lets you put people into lists. So you can just view one category of people at a time. This is what I do. For example I follow alot of authors. I have them all in a folder called "authors". So any time I wat I can just look in that list and I see only their tweets.
I seem to be getting as well the damned tweets of every person I'm following, not simply their tweets. I wouod swear everyone tweeting our E&T DR Jose, for exammple, is also sending them on to me. So, I have to say that, even if I weren't sifting through a million of "I'm at the bakery," the pornographic ones an orchestrator friend sends out thinking he's funny, as well as the others are a perfect waste of time and sense.
You can unfollow people if you don't like their tweets. Or make a special list of the people you find worthwhile. Then you can just look at that list.
It makes it much easier to read only the tweets of interest.
I've reached the conclusion that there are no tweets of interest!
;D

DR Matthew I'm glad you are improving. Be careful not to do too much too soon.

My wife was as Costco today, and some employee pushing a merchandise cart accidentally ran into her back.
>:(
My wife has had 3 back surgeries.
She's now lying down with a heating pad on her back and will be going to see her doctor tomorrow.
:-\
Oh, your poor wife. I hope she is much better by tomorrow. Did someone report this?
-
I'm waiting for news from DR Dan (the Man).

For the spell check issue, it might be a browser setting. I use Firefox and it indeed tells me if a word is spelled wrong

My friends Ron and Patrick are tring to get me to go out to our local gay bar this Friday night.
I just don't know that I am in the mood to sit around feeling old amongst a bunch of annoying 20-somethings while dance music I don't know is blaring.
I told Ron that if he could get them to play some Bollywood music I would go.
PS: I have not been to this bar before. Last time I went to a gay bar in Salem must have been well over ten years ago, and that one closed down several years back. Even then the only guys our age were the lushes (among them, one of my ex boyfriends) who are usually drunk as a skunk.
I have, on the other hand, during these last 10 years, been to gay bars in Portland where the clientele is better, and they have naked dancers on stages.
Portland has always had nice gay bars. The ones I used to frequent when I lived in Portland are probably all gone by now. However, they never had naked dancers when I lived there. Does Oregon still have the crazy law where taverns must close at 12 or 1, and the cocktal lounges could stay open until 2.
-
I always thought it hilarious on the London cassette recording of "A Little Night Music" that they broke "In Praise of Women," so that it starts on side A and then finishes on side B.
On a record or a tape? I remember having several tapes that split a song in half.

By the way, has anyone checked out the new show GCB? I watched last Sunday's episode and enjoyed it...it was nice to see David James Elliott and Annie Potts on TV again.
I had no idea this show would be so funny. I'm really liking it so far. But it's not really what i was expecting.
-
I also miss the spell check option (i use IE). I am fairly good at spelling. But sometimes when i type quickly i can make mistakes. And i hate typos. Plus sometimes when i don't know how to spell a word i used to like being able to check the spelling before i posted.
-
My ask BK question for the day:
Can you please return the "spell check" feature to HHW?
If I knew how I would. This site is so antiquated it's a joke. And there's no one around to fix it, make it easier, or tell me how to do things. Ridiculous, but the way it is until I just have the whole damn thing redesigned.
-
DR MBARNUM... I think you can get spell check back if you surf HHW using the FIREFOX browser.....I think it depends on the browser you are using whether to have SC or not.
Nope, spell check is not available in Firefox. I use it and it's not here.
It is when I use Firefox.

Taverns have stayed open until 2 am in Oregon all of my bar going days, so that law must have changed prior to 1984.

Okay, yes it was the early Seventies.

der Brucer - elmore's explanation is basically correct.
After I learned the hell they put BK through, I only purchased used copies of recordings from their inventory so they would never see a cent from me! Nobody dumps on my friends.
You dump on me.
That's right! I do.
You always hurt the one you love.
Around 3pm, I was suddenly quite sleepy and an hour later I awoke. I've been proofreading ever since. I did have one unpleasant email to deal with as well.

I always thought it hilarious on the London cassette recording of "A Little Night Music" that they broke "In Praise of Women," so that it starts on side A and then finishes on side B.
Remember 8-track tapes?? Just about every song was broken up into chunks because of the limited amount of room. :P

Yes, DR George. My friend demonstrated his brother's 8-Track for me once. I was dumbfounded when I observed that songs were broken up between tracks and thought why would anyone buy one of these?

Well, it took me longer to drive to the doctor's office than the amount of time he spent examining me. But I sort of expected that since I was a new patient to him (my regular doctor has gone AWOL from that office.)
Anyway, he told me I have a malicious bug that's been going around that totally wipes out its victims. He told me that he's seen several basketball players from a local high school that were in worse shape than me! He prescribed an antibiotic and, as a precaution, sent me to the labs to get a chest x-ray (because of the crackling in my lungs)
So I plan on taking the rest of the week off from work and just loaf around the house. Maybe I'll do a SMASH marathon!

VIBES THE MEDS WORK QUICKLY!!!
Does this "bug" have a name?
When do you get the results of the x-ray?

DR Elmore I am also confused about your twitter problems. When you go on twitter you only see the tweets of the people you follow. But even if say you followed 500 people. Twitter even lets you put people into lists. So you can just view one category of people at a time. This is what I do. For example I follow alot of authors. I have them all in a folder called "authors". So any time I wat I can just look in that list and I see only their tweets.
I seem to be getting as well the damned tweets of every person I'm following, not simply their tweets. I wouod swear everyone tweeting our E&T DR Jose, for exammple, is also sending them on to me. So, I have to say that, even if I weren't sifting through a million of "I'm at the bakery," the pornographic ones an orchestrator friend sends out thinking he's funny, as well as the others are a perfect waste of time and sense.

Well, that's because you don't follow *me*! My tweets are sublime bits of whimsy that detail the absurdities of this world, along with what I had for lunch.
-
Thanks, DR TCB! (Though I'm wondering if watching 5 hours straight of SMASH might hinder my recovery...)
It would probably ruin my health (if that is possible).
-
Thanks Laura and Jane!
The doctor had s name for the bug but all I can remember was that it sound like "mala-copy"?
I had to take 2 antibiotics as soon as I got home, and as always happens when I take antibiotics, I fell right asleep for 2 hours. So I guess they are working one way or another...

I think that Raoul looked better at a distance, as well.

Two antibiotics. I hate taking even one. I suggest when you finish the antibiotics you follow them with an equal round of Lactobacillus acidophilus.

I had to write a piece on Appalachia for the producer of the Christmas show. That's revving up again.

I have to question the wisdom behind this POTO 25th Anniversary concert. There must have been a great deal of time and expense spent in redesigning and restaging the show. But for what purpose? The concert seems to celebrate the original long running show by blowing it up and over-inflating out of its already larger than life proportions. The Les Miserable concert managed to keep itself a stripped down version of the show (while over emphasizing the performers and the music, which wasn't a bad idea.) This Phantom concert strikes me as over-packed and leaves me not wanting more...

Finally finished one set of liner notes. Whew! Will do the next one later tonight. I've been teetering on the verge of feeling sick but am fighting like a tiger not to succumb. I've sucking down Coldeez, I sat in the Jacuzzi, and I'm resting.

My question for ASK BK day.....what do you think is the worst-sequenced Broadway Cast LP?
Well, most of them are sequenced in show order, but I do know, for example, they moved Grapes of Roth on Promises late in the program, which I hated and put right when we reissued it. I don't like when they move stuff around on a cast album - but in the LP era sometimes it was out of necessity due to how much you could put on one side of an LP
Maybe that explains SWEET CHARITY, which had been tops on my list of frustrating LPs...

I've tried to put the word out that I would buy back Haines His Way and the Sherman Brothers Album, to no avail. I know they've sold back masters to a few singers - I've told the singers what to ask for and how much to offer. I would only do the Sherman Brothers album if they had the hard drives so that I could completely remix it from scratch - as most know, the idiot who did the mix left off half the band tracks and didn't comp vocals.
So do they own all the tapes or only those that belong to the "other label".
-
Listening to a rough mix of the STAGE benefit - this one Sondheim. I'm at a loss most of the time as to who is singing - save for Len Cariou. I've asked for a list of the singers and songs. Next we mix their Bacharach show, then ALW, then I'll go over and we'll finesse all of them - then we have to rush and have all three done by the end of April.

Not sure what you mean? The label that went under owns about a hundred of my productions. Varese owns a handful of the more expensive recordings and all the film music recordings I did.

bk, I was wondering what had happened to the attempt to buy back the Sherman Brothers album since you'd mentioned at that Kritzerland show you were trying to make that purchase. Do you think that they're refusing to sell both albums to you out of spite, despite finding out who a snake the person who betrayed you was? I have no ideas about how to acquire Haines His Way, but what if Mr. Richard Sherman tried to buy the Sherman Brothers album instead of you?

I'm afraid it's probably hopeless. You'd think, as you say, they'd have figured out who the real villain of the piece is (there is no doubt for those who read my book), but I only know that after having sent a message to their son, who sells their stuff on amazon privately, he denied he was their son and refused to answer any questions - whether he did as I asked and forwarded mine to his mother is anyone's guess, but my guess is he told her about it and she told him to deny it was him. It wasn't too hard - selling only releases from one label out of Louisiana (Lafayette, to be exact), which just happens to be where these people are from, and a username that's the same as his mother's save for a different first initial. It seemed positively weird and nuts to me, but I dropped it after that. There's something seriously wrong with all these people.

But you answered the question.
But I will ask this
I thought that either Original Cast Records or footlights took over the label and was distributing them.

I don't know what the exact deal with - I do know that if you look on eBay and amazon all those sellers selling this stuff sell because they bought CDs at rock-bottom blow-out wholesale prices - so, just guessing, they just dumped as much as they could to get whatever cash they could.

Favorite line from tonight's episode of "Happy Endings":
You know what I was thinking about…if Mary Tyler Moore married and then divorced Steven Tyler, then married and divorced Michael Moore, then got into a three-way lesbian marriage with Demi Moore and Mandy Moore, would she go by the name Mary Tyler Moore Tyler Moore Moore Moore?

Well, it took me longer to drive to the doctor's office than the amount of time he spent examining me. But I sort of expected that since I was a new patient to him (my regular doctor has gone AWOL from that office.)
Anyway, he told me I have a malicious bug that's been going around that totally wipes out its victims. He told me that he's seen several basketball players from a local high school that were in worse shape than me! He prescribed an antibiotic and, as a precaution, sent me to the labs to get a chest x-ray (because of the crackling in my lungs)
So I plan on taking the rest of the week off from work and just loaf around the house. Maybe I'll do a SMASH marathon!

I went to Costco this evening and bought a $7.99 two-pack DVD...the documentary "Young@Heart (http://www.amazon.com/Young-Heart-Joe-Benoit/dp/B001BBAVKQ/ref=sr_1_1?s=movies-tv&ie=UTF8&qid=1331791786&sr=1-1)" and the movie "Once (http://www.amazon.com/Once-Glen-Hansard/dp/B000X1Z0BU/ref=sr_1_1?s=movies-tv&ie=UTF8&qid=1331791874&sr=1-1)."
And the "Once" DVD includes a free .wav version of the song, "Falling Slowly." :)
