Stop The World I Want To Get Off

Did not manage to get to see this show which opened in London in 1961 which was a pity because it didn't make a comeback in London after about 485 performances...In 1962 it went to Broadway with the same cast and in 1966 there was a film made without the original cast it was'nt very successful and sank without a trace !!....The lyrics of all the songs are brilliant by Leslie Bricusse & Anthony Newley well worth a listen to !!

1. A.B.C.....Chorus
2. I Wanna Be Rich....Anthony Newley
3. Typically English....Anna Quayle
4. Lumbered....Anthony Newley....
5. Gonna Build A Mountain....Anthony Newley
6. Glorious Russia....Anna Quayle
7. Meilinki Meilchick....Anthony Newley & Anna Quayle

1. Typische Deutsche....Anna Quayle
2. Nag Nag Nag....Anthony Newley & Anna Quayle
3. All American....Anna Quayle & Anthony Newley
4. Once In a Lifetime....Anthony Newley
5. Mumbo Jumbo....Anthony Newley
6. Someone Nice Like You....Anthony Newley & Anna Quayle

Newley is just never appreciated enough for his writing. Thank you, Luigi.

I remember seeing the filmed version of the stage play in about 1964 or 65 at Point Mague Naval Air Station in Oxnard California... I never knew there was a sound track...the theater was packed with myself and maybe 3 other people!!!
