I fell upon this on the tube...amazing! Angie in rehearsal to record "Prettybelle"!

Strange, but at around 15:00 the pianist starts playing "Someone in a Tree", but "Pacific Overtures" didn't open for two more years!

Wasn't the album of PRETTYBELLE recorded in the early 80s though?

Haven't watched the video, but wasn't the Prettybelle recording made a long time after the show closed?

Just looked it up - it wasn't recorded until 1982, 11 years after the show closed.

I think the song "I'm in a Tree" sparked that playing of "Someone in a Tree." Certainly, the latter is a better "tree" song.

Yes, jv, I did follow that.

I was always under the impression that the show was recorded in 1974, 3 years after closing. Amazon has it recorded in 1974, but further reading shows that it was actually 1982.

One of my favorite flops.
