What does everyone think of this underappreciated musical? I love it, even moer than You're A Good Man Charlie Brown. The score is a lot better and it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside :)

I was in it when I was 12
I unfortunately had an unpleasant experience with the show although I have always been a fan of all things Peanuts
Perhaps the greatest tradegy for me being in this show was that a short 5 months later, one of my heroes, Charles "Sparky" Schulz passed away

LOVE it. I can't find the cast recording anywhere. I want it so much. I actually saw the cartoon version and it got me hooked.

I prefer the OLC, but that's just me

nope. The only store around me that sells a good selection of musical theatre recordings is Barnes and Noble and that is 2 hours away.

Poor Larry Grossman--he's one of the least respected composers out there but much of his work for flops (like Doll's Life) is GORGEOUS. I even liked his songs for Pocahontas II

I MUCH prefer Snoopy to Good Man Charlie Brown but part of it is I grew up with the made for TV animated version of Snoopy the Musical (which was slightly edited to an hour) I honestly wish they'd put that on DVD--it's by far my fave of the Snoopy specials :)

My voice teacher watched the TV version. And I also like the OLC better.

i played Sally in Snoopy as well. I also think everyone is much more involved in SNOOPY then in YAGMCB even though YAG is one of my FAVS. I love Edgar Allen Poe =*D and clouds

Yeah, I agree... the OLC beats the OBC by far.. the OBC is too blahhh.... the London music is more upbeat and it has a few new numbers.

I wish there was a video of it besides the 40 minute butchered animated version thats out commercially.

Anyone know where I can get any pics of the OLC??? Theres none in the CD booklet...

I don't think there are pictures, but I have pictures from the concert benefit with Sutton Foster...
