As soon as the bed is made, I'm making a vat of bolognese sauce that I will hopefully fit into the freezer.  I've got to use up some ground beef and pork before it goes bad. I can use it for lasagna in a couple of weeks, and I'm in the mood for some spaghetti tonight.

DR JOHN G I am not sure......however I will say that my first exposure to Webern, Scriabin, and Hindemith was when I played (among other parts) a disgruntled record shop customer in the stage version of Cactus Flower.

Yesterday on TCM I watched Going Steady with Miss Molly Bee and a few other folks.

It was a Sam Katzman/Fred F. Sears/Clover Production from Columbia in 1958.

That got me thinking about the other Molly Bee movie I saw....The Chartroose Caboose.  I looked on the IMDB and it seems that it is now a lost movie.....all of the Panavision prints and the negative was burned up in a fire in one of the Universal Vaults several years ago......

Gone forever.......

I am a bit late today because I went ahead and did my weekly shopping since I needed to buy some furnace filters.

The sauce is assembled, but I think I may have added too much ground beef and pork.  The dutch oven is filled to the absolute brim, and I'm letting it all boil away for a while.  The sauce needs to thicken up a bit.

You can never have too much pork!

Good Morning - nothing really going on.  Just had my first vocal rehearsal for Frozen Jr. I decided I'm only dealing with kids that can carry a tune since I'm recording the ensemble vocals.  It's a class project, so half of them really have no interest in what we are doing anyway - so I got permission for the principal and the classroom teacher to form a vocal ensemble.  We'll see how that goes.

DR George:

What you're seeing as distortion is more a function of the three-camera process itself. Smilebox isn't creating that. Whenever you're seeing an occasional weird spatial relationship between people or things, that's going to be there when you're watching the flat screen version as well.

I'm sure that BK can better explain, or correct this if I'm off track.

It's time to take How the West Was Won off the shelf, too, because now I'd like to check both versions myself.

Ahh...thanks for the info.  Doesn't mean that I'm not a little still frustrated at the distortion. ::)

Thirty-five years ago today my reconstruction of the 1935 Cole Porter-Moss Hart musical "Jubilee" received its first performances at Town Hall, directed by Jimmy Brennan and musical direction by Greg Dlugos.  The cast included Roderick Cook, Paula Lawrence, Robert Fitch, Alyson Reed, Carole Shelley, Davis Gaines, Reed Jomnes, Patrick Quinn, and a very young, very beautiful Rebecca Luker in her second New York performance.

Thirteen years later BBC Radio-3 broadcast a performance directed by Ian Marshall Fisher with musical direction by Kevin Amos.  The cast included  Denis Quilley, Vivienne Martin, Gavin Lee, Sarah Payne, Sally Ann Triplett, David Malek, Elizabeth Counsell, and David Firth.  I will post a few numbers from each of those performances.

I discovered how that Soundcloud problem happened happened yesterday.  It's either a glitch in Soundcloud or in my computer. I cannot explain it, but I discovered today that the page might change but the URL link doesn't necessarily change with it.

I am interested in seeing MA RAINEY'S BLACK BOTTOM (which somehow sounds salacious).

I was in a production of the play in Indianapolis in the late 1980's.  We were scheduled for six weeks - we ended up playing twelve weeks.  We were then brought back for another four weeks.

Then we went to some Play Festival in Norman, Oklahoma, after winning the Indiana Festival.  We won the national title and traveled to Ireland for the International contest.....where we did okay.....

For the first half of the run, I played Ma's manager - then I switched to the studio owner for the rest of the run.

That's pretty cool, Jrand!  Congrats on the success of your production!

Oy! I've come across that problem, too. And if I found the solution to it, I've forgotten what it was. Big help, I know.
