Playlist For Sunday, May 23, 2021: Hallelujah, Baby!

Wow. This is shaping up to be a Week (note capitalization and emphatic punctuation here)!  

Weather: Scrumptious

Work: Half Days! Summer hours! 

Health: Vertical. Breathing. No twinges in the meninges.

Finances: Presently solvent.

Chores: Avoidable! 

Broadway: OPENING! 

 

So this'll be short, cuz we gotta grab all these goodies and run with 'em. I may even score some theatre tickets down in the Big Apple...to see Hugh and Sutton? Who knows, why the HELL NOT!?!?! 

 

This week: Prime Time Classic Bway. It's Robert Morse's 90th birthday this week (How To Succeed!), it WILL be Meredith Willson's natal day NEXT week (cue that Music Man), plus Leslie Uggams turns 77 (Hallelujah to THAT baby!), so there'll be the usual plethora of classics/eccentrics/flopperooonies, with butter cream on top...you name it, Kim'll play it (or bake it)!

 

 So tune in, or if you can't make our Sunday matinees, remember 2 On The Aisle editions can be found on Jazz901.org, hiding in the Audio Vault. Go to Listen and in the drop down menu, just click on Audio Vault, and THERE I'll be!  Thousands of 2OTAs just waiting for your ears to enjoy. Or question. :)

Life's a ball. If only you'd know it, Birdie. Or what's that quote from Auntie Mame: Life's a banquet, and some poor suckers are starving to death. Have an egg roll already. You can store them in those sleeves.
