Follow That Girl, Original London Cast

Description

We pay tribute to Julian Slade, one of Britain’s finest composers, with this CD issue of his 1960 musical FOLLOW THAT GIRL with an all star British cast – Susan Hampshire, Peter Gilmore, James Cairncross and Patricia Routledge.

Julian Slade composed SALAD DAYS, one of the most successful and longest running British musicals in the 1950s (available on SEPIA 1061), and his follow-up show was FREE AS AIR (on SEPIA 1102). For bonus tracks we have included a pop version of the title song and cut songs from the show making this CD a must for fans of music theatre.
