TOD 1:

Mary Poppins was the first soundtrack that I owned and I was a precious 3-year-old spelling supercalifragilisticexpialidocious and talking about a man having dreams of walking with giants and carving his niche in the edifice of time.

TOD 1.5:

The family had The Sound of Music soundtrack but it was never as popular with me, largely because I loathed (and still do) "Sixteen Going on Seventeen."

I thought Edie Brickell had a fun take on that deathless song in Bright Star called Whoa, Mama.

The soundtracks for Hello, Dolly! (given to us by someone in Germany and without a dust jacket) and Finian's Rainbow.

TOD 3:

At Long Last Love. Made me a Cole Porter fan, even if the singing isn't the world's greatest. The music and those songs sold me.

TOD 4:


The soundtrack to New York, New York. I still know every sax note Georgie Auld hit in those jam sessions. He dubbed the playing for De Niro and it's delirious. Much better to listen to than to watch

There are most likely many others, but I can't think of any right now. I still have New York, New York on my iTunes list.

David is running late (very typical) so I had to change the reservation to twenty minutes later - I'm starving but I guess twenty minutes won't make too much of a difference.

Then finally, my niece and I are going to the drive-in!  We're going to see Ghostbusters and Finding Dori.  My niece hasn't been to a movie in any cinema in about four years because of her hearing condition, but since you use your own radio for the sound, she can control the volume and finally see something on a REALLY big screen. :D

I am curious at a regular movie theatre is the sound too loud or not loud enough?  The drive-in sounds fun.

It's usually too loud, but that's not the only problem.  She has hyperacusis where certain frequencies can also be painful.

Topic of the Day:  I don't remember the first soundtracks that I owned, but the earliest that I can remember my family having were "My Fair Lady" and "The Sound of Music."

I'm at my sister's and my niece and I are about to leave for the drive-in.

Be back later...and not before tomorrow.

Back from a really fun birthday dinner with the Wechter.  I had my filet, we split a small Caesar and a shrimp cocktail, and we split a baked potato and I was super good about the amount of butter, so I think all in maybe around 1200 calories, but even if it was 1500 I still jogged off two hundred so I'm fine.

For some reason, I had the soundtrack of SOUTH PACIFIC, rather than the OBC.

I always loved Mary Martin, so don't know how I ended up with the movie.

I can't remember if I had the soundtrack recording of MARY POPPINS, or if that was one my mom had in her classroom.

And I would sing in the choir for concerts because she always needed tenors.

I remember the Price / Warfield PORGY AND BESS belonged to her classroom, but it spent a great deal of time in my bedroom.
