DR ChasSmith, here are Christine Ambrose's first two pages of the P/C she created from my orchestra score for the Show Boat recording.

Okay, I see some sheet music and I do sort of recognize it.

And there's the LIVE original cast recording -- which I gather is so bad sounding it's not even worth it? I can take less than great sound, but everyone's comments about this one make it sound like you'd be rueing the day...

I couldn't hear much worth inviting a repeat listening. Elliot Gould is no Jason Grace.

I've started Soundtrack to a Coup d'Etat, which is up for the Oscar for best documentary. It won't win, but it is awfully good.

Whoa, that's beautiful. From a distance it almost looked typeset. What other scores did she copy, that you're aware of?

I did not go to the gas station.  Dennis was only ONE notch below full.....so it would have only cost $5 or less to fill the tank.

At Goodwill I found a nice black pair of dress pants - which turned out to be brown when I got them home.....a yellow IZOD sweater.....a Broadway Karaoke CD....a nice necktie.....and three LPs....

Gene Pitney's Greatest Hits....Teresa Brewer Songs Everybody Knows.....and a stereo LP of the OBC of MAME with Miss Angela Lansbury [my LP copy is MONO] - and tucked inside the LP a copy of the sheet music for the title tune.  Worth $1.49 to be sure.  And a list of Vocal Selections Books Now Available!

The first book listed.....DRAT! THE CAT!


It's a good sign!

She worked for Chelsea Music until she married and moved to Oregon. We are Facebook friends, but my last memory of seeing her was around 1987, when I last saw Mathilde Pincus at Chelsea Music. So much of her work at Chelsea was for John McGlinn projects. John told Mathilde he didn't want anyone doing his P/Cs but Christine.

Tonight I am hosting a group at church. So far I have made: blueberry lemon biscottis, TWO cranberry orange cakes (the last one went so fast!), brownies with walnuts, chocolate-dipped sugar cookies, blueberry mango mini-loaves, pretzel bites, and baba ganoush.



That sounds great!

Back from a nice lunch with our choreographer. We have our plan and it should all work well. Certain numbers I'll at least get on their feet and sketch out and then she comes and makes it better.

You might recall that I was very concerned in the last two elections for congress and scared that the "Nazi" would win.

That 50-cent surcharge at Waffle House is per egg, not per dish.

It looks good, as long it isn't too spicy for me.

On the way back from one of our outings during our stay in Oaxaca we stopped at an outdoor restaurant for lunch.  We had delicious guacamole with delicious fresh chips, and cubes of the best Oaxaca cheese.

I don’t think I have ever had spicy guacamole. Even with peppers, everything seems creamy to me.
