Million Dollar Quartet, which recently announced its spring plans for a Broadway production, proudly announces its one year anniversary in Chicago.

The Million Dollar Quartet CD is a howl.

Would love to see the Show. Hope it comes to Ireland someday.

do they replicate the known recordings?

or go off book?

Lance Guest - Last Starfighter Lance Guest?

He's too old to play Cash at that session

sounds from the article that they went off the recordings, which are mostly gospel

but an excellent Paralysed and several repeats of Brown Eyed Handsom Man

I haven't seen the show, so I don't know.

No known voices can match the originals anyway.

Good publicity and serious recognition of the importance of the event anyway.:-)

many of those songs are just a line or a chorus

with lots of talking in between

I enjoyed "dont forbid me" on the quartet albulm. I think Elvis shoulda recorder that song. The highs and lows in the vocals on that song were perfect for Elvis. I also woulda liked to have heard Johhny Cash stick around fo the session. The whole albulm was cool tho.

I thought the going back and really enjoying Brown Eye Handsome man was hysterical
