Mame A story for today

the music of mame is as relevant today with the current economic problems as it was when it was set.the lyrics which are optimistic are fresh and delightful.there are humourous numbers and bosum buddies is a show stopper.as an example why dont you let your hair be natural the reply if i had natural hair like yours i would be bald. there are also meaningful songs the boy sings my best girl to mame a love song for anyone being cared for by a relative or friend.she in turn laments in where is that boy with the bugle.surely the song of all parents and carers with problems. one of the problems of the play which is reflected in the score is that the love story of mame and beauregard does not feature enough either in the play or the score.it needed a great duet between them.it also needed a choral number in the second act perhaps involving the upson family.

You coax the blues right out of the horn...

MAME! This sheet music book includes every vocal number from the original cast album. And bonus!- there is a big picture of Angela Lansbury on the front inside cover! The reason I only gave this item 4 stars is because Mame is a very old show, and I prefer contemporary musicals. Songs in this book are: St. Bridget, It's Today, Open a New Window, The Man in the Moon, My Best Girl, We Need a Little Christmas, Mame, The Letter, Bosom Buddies, Gooch's Song, That's How Yound I Feel, If He Walked Into My Life, and Finale. Bosom Buddies is a great comedy song! My Best Girl is very moving, and The Man in the Moon is HYSTERICAL. If you like 'Mame', buy this book! Every page is precious!

Best Musical...EVER

Mame, an American tradition, is coming back! You need to order your copy BEFORE it becomes popular again; for, this next fall it will air on ABC with Babera Streisand in the title roll. This is the full score...ALL the main songs, incidental music, exit music, scene change music, overature, entr'acte, curtain call music, and a lot more are PACKED in this one little book. Fun and challenging to play on the keyboard (keys range from Gb-C major!), or BUY THE CD TO GO WITH IT, AND FOLLOW ALONG. Very fine book!
