Well, you've read the notes, the notes were so last night, and now it is time for you to post until the night cows come home.
-
And the word of the day is: CAMARADERIE!

Well, this is real interesting...Listen to haunting notes from an 18,000-year-old conch shell trumpet (https://arstechnica.com/science/2021/02/listen-to-haunting-notes-from-an-18000-year-old-conch-shell-trumpet/).
Archaeologists in 1931 assumed the shell was only a broken drinking cup.

I was so devastated to read that Mary Wilson passed away this week. She was actually my favorite Supreme. Of course, I love Miss Ross, but she got to be a bit much. Mary was just heaven on earth. R.I.P. Mary. I hope you and Florence are singing together forever.

I'd read that earlier. :( She died about a month before her 77th birthday.

Is it still snowing in Tums?

Angela Lansbury is my favorite GYPSY recording. And I love Roz in the movie.
-
I wish Angela had done A LITTLE NIGHT MUSIC.

I don't think so.

Well, she did play Madame Armfeldt in the most recent revival...but I'm sure that that's not what you meant. ;)

Ah, no. I wish she had played Desiree instead of Ms. John’s.

I was able to lighten the images so that they could be seen.
-
Well, good night, George.
Good night, Tom.

And now, I'm off to bed. I get to sleep in for the next three days! That'll be nice!
Have a good day, all!

Angela Lansbury is my favorite GYPSY recording. And I love Roz in the movie.
I concur!

And good morning, everyone.

I awoke this morning to find that I am in Facebook jail for 30 days.
For an unflattering cartoon of 45 and his first lady that I posted to a friend's wall in July 2019.
To a page that no longer even exists.
-
My copy of Jerome Kern Revisted, Volume 3 arrived yesterday. :)
-
Good morning, all!
-
Today is laundry day, so I want to begin that in the next thirty minutes.
-
DR TCB, I saw the original Broadway cast in A Little Night Music, and I thought Ms Johns was absolutely glorious. Much as I love Lansbury who was perfection in Sweeney Todd, I can't see, or vocally hear, her as Desiree. Six months after I saw A Little Night Music, I saw it again, and Johns was out. I saw the beautiful Barbara Lang, her standby, who gave a competent performance and no more.
-
My favorite Gypsy recording? Merman, hands down. That is one great cast recording. My first recording was the soundtrack, since I'd seen and loved the film. The Lanscury recording is very good and I wish I'd seen it, but I always return to Ethel.
-
I've seen in performances of Gypsy Bette Midler, Patti LuPone, and Tyne Daly, who was the best, but I find her recording, like her Call Me Madam, hard to listen to without the visuals because you can hear the pitch problems too clearly. In 1998, Daly played the Elsa Maxwell role in my reconstruction of Jubilee, and she was the best - and most pleasant - of the three leading ladies.
-
Good morning, all.
-
Onward
-
Two!
-
I saw Patti LuPone, Boyd Gaines, Laura Benanti and David Yazbeck in Gypsy. It was one of the best nights of theater I’ve ever experienced.
I have only seen the show live one other time. That was in summer stock, and it didn’t quite work. The ferocity was downplayed.
I hate the Rosalind Russell version, though Natalie Wood is good. Bette Midler is better, but not by much.
-
Of the recordings, Ethel is best and a bootleg of her final performance suggests she would have been outrageous. I own but never listen to any of the others. The overture never sounds quite right, too smooth or too perfect, the wail of the trumpet too pretty.
Tyne Daly was sick the day they recorded the album, according to all concerned. Which could be why she’s so bad on it. She sounds much better in all of the clips I’ve seen. (She doesn’t sound like herself—just like Bette Midler in the new Hello, Dolly!)
Of the other recordings I have, I like them in this order:
Angela Lansbury
Bernadette Peters
Patti LuPone
Bette Midler
Lisa Kirk/Roz Russell
-
I own the Imelda Staunton DVD, but I haven’t watched it yet.
-
Liza Minnelli sang a bunch of the songs in various venues. I’m glad she never played the part. I’m glad Barbra hasn’t either.
-
I would love to hop into a time machine and see Karen Morrow play Madame Rose.
-
Saturday.
I may go to the grocery store early in the morning.....just because of the snow. I don't need a LOT of things.....but it never hurts to have stuff.
-
On Tuesday afternoon I finally go in to have my plate fitted for my lower partial.....after ALL this time....it's been since December 21 last year!
Then we'll see how long it takes to get it done.

A taste of Karen.

I enjoyed reading about MR BK's thoughts on GYPSY.
My first experience was the movie and the soundtrack - which I still enjoy. I like Rosalind Russell a lot.....and of course Natalie Wood....the Baby/Dainty Junes are another story......"I want to ACT!"
I have never seen it live - although I was in a production at our theatre which I didn't much like....for various reasons. The actress playing the lead didn't understand the character at all - neither did her husband the director.
She thought Rose was a heroine and everyone would love her as a great mother - she played it that way.....weird.
-
And that is that.
-
It's about time to take the laundry out of the dryers.
-
Good morning, all.
-
Good conversation about the GYPSYs. Here's something I'm wondering:
How have the original orchestrations fared through all of these revivals? Leaving aside any necessary transpositions, if any, which of these productions have utilized the originals with a full orchestra, and which have juiced or outright altered them along the way?
-
Good morning!
-
Thanks for the tip about Gypsy on YouTube, BK! I'm watching now.
-
The laundry is finished but not yet put away. Annabelle and Thatch fought over the opportunity to lie on the warm towels. Annabelle won

Saturday morning greetings!

Doesn't she usually?

We are bracing for a snow-pocalypse that's supposed to start tomorrow evening. By Tuesday midday we could have about 8 inches of new snow on top what we already have. The older I get the better I understand why senior citizens go south for the winter.
-
I'm up, I'm up - almost six hours of sleep.
-
That's terrible about Singdaw in jail, but something is clearly wrong with the Facebook algorithms because that's happening to a lot of people - old posts from years ago causing Facebook jail - ultimately, that's why I was there for three days - two posts from last year, neither identified. I'm telling you, there's a class action lawsuit here - because they don't give anyone a way to contest these things or complain and clearly they're glitching and causing this crap.

They have thinned out over the years. The Peters production had a tiny band and it sounded tinny, thin and underwhelming, almost an afterthought.
-
Watching an Iranian film called Taste of Cherry about a man who wants to commit suicide, but also wants to make sure he's properly buried. I imagine the film will ultimately be uplifting, but the journey is depressing. I have made it to the halfway point. It's not long, so I'll probably stay with it. I'm just not in the mood for it.
-
I'm skipping to the end.
-
.....but it never hurts to have stuff.
This would make another great epitaph!
-
I'm just not in the mood for it.
So would this.
-
I will need several headstones for all these epitaphs.
-
Yes DR GINNY it is scary weather. We shall see what happens.
-
Good morning.

I'm skipping to the end.

-
I enjoyed your show last night, BK. I don't know if you can tell I watched it.
I have to say, though, that there is only one person from my past that I would enjoy having find me. And he was like a brother to me.
-
Good Morning. I have never seen a professional staging of Gypsy just a community theatre version and a high school version. The high school version was great. However, I haven't really grasped on to the fact that everyone loves this show. I guess it has to do with the performances? I don't know. The score is great, the book is definitely "of it's time", but I just don't "get it".
As for recordings -
Ethel
Angela
Tyne
You can keep the others. After reading Patti's memoire, I've decided I am not a Patti fan at all. I've seen her in Sweeney Todd where she played the tuba - and I actually loved that production as a whole because of the talent of the performers - and I've seen her in a cabaret act, which was fine. Bernadette has grown on me over the years, and she was amazing in Hello, Dolly and Bette was not when I saw her. I always thought that Bernadette was wrong for the role (Mama, not Dolly) from the beginning.
I haven't seen either movie all the way through. I guess I should see the first one, though. Bette is hit and miss with me.

Many of our complex neighbors go South for the winter. Mostly we have just taken a vacation and gone someplace warm. Last year we only went to Chicago & froze. We then went to DC where it was comfortably cold.
-
This winter, of course, we are home in the snow. We have been lucky that until yesterday it has been a decent winter.
-
I enjoyed your show last night, BK. I don't know if you can tell I watched it.
I have to say, though, that there is only one person from my past that I would enjoy having find me. And he was like a brother to me.
Have you tried finding him?

It's absolutely ridiculous. They let you off easy.

Up from a nap. Watching the last of The Trip to Greece. The setting is incredible, the food is making me hungry.
-
Back from a breakfast at Hugo's - patio seating. I had eggs benedict instead of pasta papa. The poached eggs were underdone, which I find very gross, but it was still pretty okay - the potatoes were great. Jinky's does much better eggs benedict but there you sit outside, while Hugo's is a covered patio with heaters. Then I picked up some packages and finally came back home. She of the Evil Eye is now gone and I'm listening to another delightful Saint-Saens opera, called Prosperine, another in this series that look like books - beautiful packaging, except this copy arrived torn to smithereens with a completely smashed and separated spine, so it goes back and they'll send another. I can tell you this did NOT happen during shipping - the Amazon package showed no signs of anything untoward. Some idiot pulled this off the shelf and sent it.
-
Ninety minutes to Zoom audition.
-
It's a lazy kind of day. Was up at 4:00AM, then around 8:30AM went back to sleep for about 2 hours.

It's a hibernation vacation!

Gratuitous post #75.

Well. I knew the bastard would be acquitted, but it still hurts.

It does, indeed.

I have been listening to Kristin Hannah's latest, The Four Winds, which deals with the Dust Bowl Era. It's funny, but listening to these people brave the elements to save their land helped when I had to get out in the backyard just now with clothespins and sheets, both of plastic and fabric, to cover what I could of the olive tree and the fig. I don't know that either will be enough.
-
I have been waiting awhile for this to be available at the library. The estimate is another three weeks.
Have you read "The Worst Hard Time: The Untold Story of Those Who Survived the Great American Dust Bowl" by Timothy Egan? If not I highly recommend it.
-
My neighbors Ann and Jen earlier today brought me the most wonderful hot and spicy sausage and bean soup that Jen made. I'm having it for dinner.

Sounds wonderful. Tomorrow, I'm planning to make a sausage and bean soup, too, but this one has red cabbage in it as well.

Not all. Each unit gets one guaranteed spot (the two showing are for M3 and M4) and mine (M2) is my garage, but I'm using it for storage, so I can't park there. Any uncovered parking spot is open for anyone.

During my march up and down and around our home I saw a few neighbors struggling in the snow. I prefer speed and was able to move fast inside. I turned on Pandora, listened to music and also danced a bit. I also took breaks to watch the trial with Keith & do laundry. I finally stopped at 5 miles.
-
I was feeling very good until we received a text telling us to stay inside. Our dear friend in Portland is in the ER with a splintered elbow.
Now we are very worried about her.

Sorry about your friend, DR Jane.

We were alerted that there was a drive-by shooting in our neighborhood this afternoon.
Also, there have been increased carjackings in general and a catalytic converter was stolen from a car in our parking lot. Yikes!
-
DR George, thank you for sharing your winter wonderland with us.
-
Had Zoom auditions and I basically told Doug that everyone could have a callback, because I knew that would be a positive thing for all the actors and it enables me to split them into two groups of eight (cast is eight actors) and then mix and match. I'm pretty sold on who I think will be best but am not solidifying that until I mix and match.
-
One from Column A, as it were.
-
Sorry about your friend, DR Jane.
Thank you. They were able to fix her dislocated elbow-ouch. Hopefully no surgery & just a cast. Her boyfriend has taken over texting info to us.

-
DR Jane not sure what you mean about the Walk at Home videos not being walking. She has 100s of them. And then are all walking. Although some are more intense than others.
-
What I saw was more aerobics, to me, than walking. How do you walk in place unless on a treadmill?

Good night, everyone.

Listening to the opera of The House Without a Christmas Tree - I'd heard a brief sample on YouTube and while I've never liked the songs of its composer, Ricky Ian Gordon, who was, for a short time, the flavor of the month with B'way gals, I chanced it. He clearly loves Mr. Sondheim, but this just kind of meanders along - occasionally you get the beginnings of a tune only for it to disappear in a miasma of musical notes. His orchestrations aren't great (presuming he did them), and kind of ape Michael Starobin. He wrote several operas, including The Grapes of Wrath.
-
Had some ribs for dinner - small portion this time, which was fine.
-
This afternoon I played guitar and sang at a baptism for my co-workers new baby. It was lovely. Then it was the 5:00pm Mass - first weekend with the open church (no more than 100) It was fine. People can follow rules, after all, we've been at this for almost a year. I got a notice that it's possible teachers will be vaccinated soon, so here's hoping! Speaking of which, my COVID test was negative this week. So, we keep doing whatever it is we do!

Agree completely.
-
They let me go early from the theater. The band, which was supposed to play 90 minutes, hadn't even started playing Talking Heads bigger hits by that time, 80 minutes in.
But I'm glad they did. There were at least four big accidents on the way home, all because of slick conditions. It's freezing out there, but the precipitation isn't snow. It's rain, I guess.

Oh, no. :'( My condolences to Fred and his family.

I had no idea how old Fred's dad was - 100, to be exact. That's something! I gather the real drama here is what Skip posted on Facebook, that Fred's brother is a real jerk and kept this from Fred until the last minute.

Listening to music.

And why shouldn't I be?

Tonight I watched FOLLIES (2011). It was obviously recoded by someone in the audience. You can hear all of the music, but for the dialogue, you have crank up the volume, and it is still hard to understand all of it.
My poor neighbors, when I forgot to turn it down before the music started.

I have neighbors on both sides of me, and have to be concerned about the noise level, also. That's one thing that I don't like about community living. ::)

I suppose I could get headphones, again. Actually, I think I have some that I bought for my dad. I wonder if I can hook them up to my TV. I'll have to find them and see.

I will say that this production did better with the ghosts, and they actually made the Loveland section make sense. Watching it made me realize what a loss Jan Maxwell’s passing was.

I've seen clips of that production. I agree about Jan Maxwell.

What I saw was more aerobics, to me, than walking. How do you walk in place unless on a treadmill?
You're actually marching more than walking in place. I used to have a set of her videos...actual VHS videotapes!
I would rather move even if I don't go far. I mix up a bit of running and dancing with my speed walking/pacing.
I thought you meant you wanted to move out of the condo. LOL!

My condolences to Fred, Skip, and all of the family (except his brother).

Yes. Exactly my sentiments.
