George, Brewery City Pizza says they have cashews for their pizzas, also. What is it with the South Sound and their nuts?

I don't know him well, but we did get him to reconcile with Twiggy and do Room in Bloomsbury on her CD - I was trying to gently give him some direction and he was kind of just looking at me, and Twiggs piped up instantly, "You listen to Bruce, he's brilliant."  Then he listened.

Reconcile?  Did they have a falling out?

Yesterday in the mail, I received a couple of CDs from Dresscircle.com: a CBC Radio Production of Hey Marilyn, and a demo recording of a musical version of The Fly.  What's cool about my purchase of The Fly is that I got it just when it was on sale for only £2.16 (about $2.69...it's normally £4.16).  HOWEVER, if you want to get it on Amazon.co.uk right now, it'll cost you a whopping £86.23, which is $107.42...AND the one seller who has it, won't or can't send it to the US!

:o WTH??

Does that fall into the "I never repeat gossip, so listen carefully the first time" category of gossip?

CD ordered.

The first time I saw THE BOY FRIEND was on the CBS Late Night Movie - which I think had the record for the number of commercial breaks and commercials in the breaks....it was of course hard to follow.

I liked it better when I saw it on DVD and most recently on TCM.  Barbara Windsor - a friend of the Kray Brothers - is not much of an actress in anything, and I'm not sure she was in on the joke....but she is entertaining.

And Twiggy is a delight to be sure - her CD produced by MR BK is one of my all time favorites.

THE MYSTERIOUS MAN has assured me that he wants to produce a serious Allison Hayes documentary [insert DR ELMORE laughing here] and not a sensational one.

They may send someone out to interview me, which would be fine.....he said he has Roger Corman and Mara Corday and a couple of performers he can't mention yet lined up....so we shall see what we shall see.   I will do my best MR BK impression if I get on camera.....

Sorry, BK:

I hated the overblown movie version of THE BOY FRIEND.

I'd seen it done on stage several times.  Loved it.  It was fun. 

But, the film...

 :( :'(

Yesterday I ended up spending much more time with the sounds of Mr. McGlinn than expected, and then I got the request for recording that song, and now I'm a whole day behind on everything.  Fortunately, a day behind doesn't really affect anything at this point, but it's just amazing how easily that can happen.

I slept quite poorly/  I aswoke around 1:30 and got back to sleep some time after 3:00am.  Par of it was anxiety, part was working out an orchestration problem, and part of it was anger aq person making my life needlessly difficult at the moment.

Ten years ago today, around 1:00am, my father William E. Moore died at the age of 85.  He was a kind, decent man with a love for his family and a great work ethic.  I miss him daily.

I had been posting from Ohio daily reports to HHW on his health and decline. I posted this ten years ago around 2:00am:
My father, William Edgar Moore, born Fallsburg, KY, Dec. 14, 1921, passed away around 1:00 AM EST today, about 55 minutes ago.

I will miss him.

I want the new edition of The Boy Friend!

I loved working on Twiggy's "London Pride"album; she and I have the same birthday. when we finished the recording, I rented in VHS every film that she was in, just to spend more time with her.  The strangest? The Doctor and the Devils.
