BK,

I am surprised....

No, SHOCKED!....

 :o :o :o

That you've never seen THE LEGEND OF HELL HOUSE.

It's one of my all time favorite haunted house movies; was released the same summer as THE EXORCIST.

And, it was either written by or based on a story by Richard Mathison.

Speaking of haunted house movies: Have you ever seen THE CHANGELING with George C. Scott?  That's another goodie.

Absolutely no idea what I will watch this weekend.

Maybe there will be something in today's  mail.

We watched GENTLEMEN PREFER BLONDES the other night.

I hadn't seen it in over 20 years, and I was surprised at how well it holds up.

Indeed!  How did THAT happen?  It's almost impossible to comprehend.

I think I saw it at the Fox on Hollywood Blvd.

THE CHANGELING, on the other hand, I totally missed back in the day.  Watched it for my first time on DVD last year.

DR Elmore:

Why did McGlinn do the BRIGADOON?  Please excuse, I haven't read the notes yet.  Was it to capture the complete score?  It wasn't a reconstruction project, was it?

No,  I've heard that it was an emergency stopgap after McGlinn's arrogance and foolishness resulted in a canceled complete OKLAHOMA! recording. I had heard BRIGADOON was its replacement and EMI had to pay off the contracted OKLAHOMA! performers that were unused in BRIGADOON. The full score and parts used in the recording were the Tams-Witmark rental materials. I think it's one of McGlinn's best, but that was why his EMI contract was not renewed, and he was once again unemployed. A total fool.

Here are Karl Harpur and our producer, three-time Grammy winner Judy Sherman. I firsat worked with Judy on my first recording, John McGlinn's SONGS OF NEW YORK. She also produced all of the NYC Gay Men's Chorus recordings for Telarc and Virgin Classics. I've known her for nearly 30 years.

LEGEND OF HELL HOUSE and THE CHANGELING are two of the best ghost story films.

Friday morning greetings!  Oh, dear, it looks like I forgot to log out before I went to bed.  That usually happens when I've overtired, which I was last night.  A really bad dream woke me at 7am, earlier than I would have liked.

Anyway, today is a much quieter day, with some puttering here at home until after lunch.  Richard and I will go to the Y this afternoon and do a little grocery shopping on the way home.

Tony Danza was supposed to be in HONEYMOON IN VEGAS before that got delayed (I think) a season, so "they" :) are doing "Who's the Boss" parody lyrics in the Times comment box, too!

DR MBARNUM very nice picture of Jeffrey Stone.

So are we talking about William Reynolds or James Anderson?

It was Jason Evers, if it is the situation I think you are asking about.

I just had great news: Karl Harpur's work visa finally came through and he and his girlfriend will soon relocate to Los Angeles to try for an acting career. His cousin Colin Egglesfield is doing very well there. It couldn't happen to a nicer person and I am thrlled for him and wish hm a huge success.

Enjoyed Filichia on Friday today. I think I would like to see "Bring It On." I mean, heck, it's the closest to a Mickey-Judy show that we're likely to see for awhile,  right? Unless they revive "Babes in Arms."
