John Doyle, nobody’s favorite director, interviews John Kander.

I enjoyed much of it, including the sounds of a toilet flushing three times.

At the very end, Doyle announces an upcoming tribute to Assassins.

I am very sorry for your medical news, DR elmore3003.

It sounds like the doctors have a plan and know what to do. The success rate seems to be high for this sort of thing.

All my prayers.

And it sounds like there are some less invasive options, too, which is a great thing.

145%!!! And close to passing 11K - so $12,500 is not so far-fetched now. Already deciding on the first of the added stuff - each addition, of course, ups the bill but that's why we keep going. Very exciting. Two of the four first edition plays went first thing this morning. If the other two go that will put us well on our way to the 12K. The good news is that the guy who's taken most of the scores and the first editions is in Burbank so I'll save all that postage and meet up with him somewhere.

Got an email today from Triton selling hardbound scripts, several of which were perks.

BK, I just saw a post about the Danny Kaye film HANS CHRISTIAN ANDERSEN. That got me wondering why the film soundtrack was never released. Would it be possible to do a soundtrack recording?

Saw the Triton first editions, many of which were perks and still are. Already some have bids and it's just the first day - they'll all go for more than our perks and some will go for considerably more. Their timing is a little odd, if you ask me - he's very aware of our campaign and probably saw how quickly those moved.

That isn't really the soundtrack; that was Danny Kaye with Gordon Jenkins Orchestra, and I have your CD.  The film orchestrations were by Jerome Moross, and it's never been released as a recording.

I'm sure they don't exist for either film, actually, especially for Hans - Goldwyn doesn't seem to have kept any separate music stems for these films, only M&Es.

DR George I hope your mother's hand feels better within a few days.

Thanks, Jane.  I'm going over tonight to play Phase 10.  She doesn't shuffle the cards, so she doesn't have to worry about that, but holding the cards shouldn't be a problem.

DR Elmore, I'm so sorry to hear that news.

Thank God for the radiation, which seems to be what everyone has for this.

My sister's boyfriend had the radiation just a couple of years ago and now, he's fine. :)

I have an off-label cD of the soundtrack matched up with the White Christmas soundtrack.

The White Christmas part is lousy because Rosemary Clooney couldn’t appear in the recording. I think they had Vera Ellen dub her.

Are you sure it's not the Kaye-Jenkins recording that BK released?

The White Christmas is also the Decca “original cast” of the soundtrack. Peggy Lee (unrecognizable) subs for Clooney while Trudy Stevens subs for Gloria Wood, who dubbed Vera-Ellen.
