Question for Follies and Dorothy Collins fans — Page 2

I somehow stumbled across a recording of Dorothy and John singing "Pleasant Little Kingdom", the song that was later replaced with "Too Many Mornings." Subtle and heartbreaking- I get chills everytime I listen to her sing. My favorite part of the soundboard is when she says "Hi Ben" just before "Don't Look at Me." Your mother was a true master.

bk: Thank you for your offer! We do have many Hit Parade tapes here. They're a treasure.
John McMartin and mommy were close friends. They kept in touch until she passed away. She adored him.
I have to say we were pleased to see it was Dame Edna on that recording. We feel the same as you. For us, no one has ever come close to mom's version. I actually get uncomfortable hearing someone else sing it....I guess I'm protective of it.


"Do I Hear A Waltz" at Paper Mill is the show where my parents met. :)

No...her parents were not in show business at all.
