Favoriting Acid Jazz Hands with Bronwyn Bishop: Playlist from December 23, 2022 Favoriting

Bronwyn Bishop's avatar View Bronwyn Bishop's profile Favoriting

Musical theater from off the beaten path. Obscure and unusual show tunes from within the canon and without, flops, failures, and the newest works from up-and-coming artists—plus tried-and-true hits. Also, occasional appearances from songs that are not show tunes (but only if they go really well with show tunes).

I've read a bio of Hughes (20 years ago or so) and I don't remember learning of this work. And don't recall knowing of it otherwise. Why. The movie version came out in 2013.

I've got the Spike Jones version on a compilation CD and it was played twice today on the Sheena stream. There a so many little jokes and references packed into it.

Million Dollar Quartet (the original recording made) was a dud, for completest only. I've not listened to it in over 40 years but that was my response then.
