LOVE Ds M Rs! Haven't heard this one - was that radio tuning intro w/ the Sex Pistols part of the track??!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:18pm
Therese:

Yup, that was part of the track.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:20pm
Matt from Springfield:

Awesome! :)

Hmm, this song's context seems unusually specific to this year...

Matt from Springfield:

Super contribution from that Superchunker.

Gaylord Fields:

If the events of 2016 can inspire songs as powerful and angry, and yet levelheaded and hopeful as Mac's, then the despair felt by so many of us may yet be something we can overcome.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:29pm
Therese:

Well said, Gaylord!!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:33pm
Gaylord Fields:

Not nearly as well said as Mac, but thanks, Therese.

WOOOOO!!! GREAT version of this early Smiths song! Always liked the harder/'82 early alternative feel of the song, but she keeps the spirit of the original while making it her own! Kudos Sandie!

Matt from Springfield:

Hello BGZ! Jake! I was a person of 2016, and I intend to *stay* a person in 2017, thank you very much..

The delightful Elaine Stritch documentary - "Shoot Me" - returned to the Netflix streaming library a few weeks ago. I believe it's also on Hulu. It's a must watch!

This was from 2002, so evidently Elaine was 77 at that time :)

Does anyone know who Brenda Frazier was anymore?

Hoboken Jack:

Our friend Lee saves Stritch:
By the late ’60s, Stritch was becoming a has-been. Everybody loved her onstage, but offstage she was difficult. She spoke her mind. She fought with directors and fellow cast members. She drank. In 1968, her friend, writer Lee Israel, took her to dinner at Sardi’s and interviewed her for the New York Times. Stritch was, as always, candid. A few days after the interview was published, director Hal Prince called and offered her a part in his new show, “Company.”

Lee Israel!

We owe her a debt of gratitude.

BadGuyZero:

I once read something about a touring production of "Mame" that would have starred Judy Garland and Elaine Stritch. The two had reached an agreement that whoever was less drunk at each performance would portray Auntie Mame, while the other would get some sleep as Vera Charles.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:19pm
Matt from Springfield:

Sounds like that could've been from 1979 (and a half)

Judy Garland would have played a great Vera Charles
