well, after trekking two miles to the cd store (the bus broke down) and two miles home (couldn't find a bus), i've walked four miles today, and all for... THE FROGS NEW RECORDING! i got home, popped it in the cd player with a Perrier next to me and it was well worth the 4 hour exercise. it is SO good, Sondheim never ceases to amaze me (Assassins, PO, Frogs... all purchased or seen recently) and I just think that Roger and Nathan work so well together, i got chills listening to The Frogs. I have the concept album but well, this is just so much better. THe part with the cell phone. anywho- sorry if i bored you too tears.

Isn't "Ariadne" the most gorgeous song? I started a whole thread about it.

And "Hades" is a freaking riot. When I get my blog up and running, I'll post a full review.

A terrific score and a very underrated show IMO.

I agree. I loved it the two times I saw it but I think I appreciate it even more with the CD. This one goes to the top of my favorites list.

She was having an affair with a centaur. You know, half man and half horse. How can you compete with that?

My favorite quote is in my signature. I can't get enough of this CD and I've been playing every day for over two weeks now. Great CD and a great show.

Love the OBC recording. I saw the show three times, but am still amazed that I missed (or forgot?) some very funny lines that I'm catching as I listen to the CD. It's a great recording. Love Nathan and Roger!! What a team!
