Playlist for Sunday, June 30, 2019: Gimme your tired, your poor, your boxed-set!

 I was given a very dangerous gift over the weekend...more Broadway! A boxed set of songs/musicals I had never heard of before. Stuff like The Amazing Adele, Texas Lil' Darlin', and Seventh Heaven. And from musicals I thought I knew, new-to-me songs like "By The Mississinewah" and "Chain Store Daisy". So as you might expect, I've spent the last few days (in a daze) listening and researching and playlist-carving (like a turkey at Thanksgiving, but less dry) to bring them all to you (you're welcome) come Sunday.

 From Texas, Lil' Darlin'...

with yodeling. 

Be prepared.

 Oh, there WILL be a few selections that you avid listeners have heard before, but like color-themed Christmas ornaments on an aluminum tree (still on that wish list!), they all seem to hang together. :) That means Bloomer Girl meets Banjo Eyes, and Where's Charley? finds Me & Juliet. This is not for the weak. It's for the Broadway Brave, those who wish to delve deep into the shows that died in Philly, snuffed it in New Haven (thank you, Addison Dewitt), no national tours, no full cast recordings, without an Encores! revival even! But steady on. You can do this.

Another goodie to sample...

Gertrude Niesen in Follow The Girls!

Maybe we'll get back to normal next Sunday, but I gotta THING for this mothballed, also-ran stuff, and you know that. If I played Oklahoma! and Hamilton every week, you'd get bored, I'd get bored, all god's children get bored. So turn up the dial.
