This week marks the return of John M. to the podcast - Musical Minutes's own Dynamic Duo is back together!
This week, John and John talk about the trope maker that has founded a million jokes on this podcast - the essential Golden Age musical where you get almost *nothing* but singing and dancing gangsters: "Guys and Dolls". They talk about their enjoyment of the characterizations of the leading roles, talk about the strengths and weaknesses of the book, and their love for Frank Loesser's music and lyrics... although John N has some thoughts on the title song.
Music and Lyrics by Frank Loesser
Book by Abe Burrows and Jo Swerling
Based on characters from several short stories by Damon Runyon
